At this point, you must be aware that The Colour of the Year for 2015, according to the experts at Pantone, is Marsala, a brownish-burgundy-ish hue. Now we’re certainly captivated by the maroon beauty statements – reminiscent of the ’90s – that are about everywhere: think wine hair streaks and dusty burgundy eyeshadow. So, to celebrate the color of the year, we show you how to incorporate this shade in your daily beauty look.

1. Face:

Can’t part with the thought of a flawless face? Well, you don’t have to. The feminine hue can look lovely for all skin tones – just make sure you don’t have to overdo it with too many hues.

Cleansing:

Prep your face with CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser, Soap & Glory The Greatest Scrub of All, and Bioderma Sensibio Cream, to maintain its healthy balance and reveal more luminous complexion.

Primer:
Ladies, remember that primers do for your skin what conditioner does to your hair – they reduce the appearance of fine lines, smooth your skin and hold your makeup in place, so that you get a more radiant finish. Take a small amount of Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer Pore Minimizing and apply before your foundation.

Foundation:

Now for that right coverage and the right benefits to help your skin glow, dab a small amount of Stila Illuminating Liquid Foundation and apply it all your face. Perfect for all skin types, Stila gives an airbrushed look and an even coverage for your natural complexion. Yes, you can use a brush or even your fingers to apply, but liquid foundation is best used with a sponge (you can use Makeup Blender Sponges), so that you won’t be caking on too much foundation.

Concealer:

Dust/dab or apply your favourite concealer after the foundation. Otherwise, too much of it can lead to a cake-y look.

We prefer applying Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage. This duo palette provides eight-hour coverage and is perfect for color correcting. Ensure the shade is similar to your skin tone or a shade lighter.

Blusher:

Pair your matte skin with soft pink blush (Flower Beauty Win Some, Rouge Some Creme Blush in Forget-me-not) or a darker red wine with a shimmer-sheen finish (Nars Blush in Seduction). Both the blushers are easy to blend and can instantly brighten up your complexion. For the most natural look, make sure you blend the shade into the apples of your cheeks.

2. Eye:

Forget about your boring black smokey eye. Instead, try a combination of silver and maroon on your peepers for a futuristic, dramatic vibe.

To achieve this model’s easy-to-do but chic look, start with silver eyeshadow (try Maybelline Color Tattoo in Too Cool) and sweep it on your eyelids, starting from the inner corner of the eye to the crease. Now, blend the color till your brow bone. You can use a thin brush or even blend it with your fingertips. Follow this step by Applying Make Up For Ever Artist Shadow In Morello Cherry. Just concentrate this on your lid and blend it seamlessly.

Next, take Bobbi Brown Eyelash Curler Gentle Curl and curl your lashes upwards. Now, take Stila Smudge Stick Waterproof Eye Liner in Sienna and line your lower lash line. Smudge the edges of your liner for a surprising twist. Finish off the look by piling on some Clinique Lash Power Feathering Mascara.

3. Lips:

Oh, Marsala lips- we just can’t get over you! This combination of a flawless skin and maroon color is perfect for warm weather. Begin with prepping your lips. Now, line them with a Make Up For Ever Aqua Lip Waterproof Lipliner Pencil. Once done, fill the lips with the same liner. Follow this step by applying the lipstick evenly. We recommend Too Faced La Crème in Spice Spice Baby – pinky brown.

So there you have it – Marsala makeup for beauty addicts. Hope this post helps you the next time you are planning to try something fun and in vogue. How did you like this post? Do let us know by commenting in the box below.
