My Top Beauty Picks for Color of the Year

The New York Fashion Week is in full swing and with it the Pantone color of the season! Since the announcement of this year’s color we have been bombarded with all sorts of ideas on how to wear, decorate or apply the gorgeous color. I for one, LOVE it! Girly girls like me dance in these hues. I’m sure Lilly Pulitzer couldn’t be happier!

I’ve been on the hunt for makeup ideas and trends featuring this gorgeous color. Spring is the perfect time to start playing with new colors and as such I’ve found some great picks. Keeping in mind that not all of us have the same skin color, tone or type, I came up with these top beauty picks for wearing Pantone’s Radiant Orchid that will flatter any skin.

Here’s what Pantone has to say about Radiant Orchid as a makeup color:

“A modern and surprisingly versatile shade, Radiant Orchid enlivens the skin, making all who wear it feel more healthy and energetic. Blending both cool and warm undertones, purple is an appealing hue for distinctive combinations and flattering to many hair, eye and skin tones.”
