When it comes time to make a change, many people jump to changing their hairstyle. Whether it’s a drastic change from long to short or a subtle change of adding bangs, hairstyles are a reflection of your personality and are a great way to boost your confidence. Revamping your style shouldn’t stop with your hairstyle. The Hair Company in Nashua knows the perfect hairstyle is just the start. Here are some tips on changing your makeup to match your new hairstyle. Continue reading to learn more!
Change Your Eyeshadow
A good place to start is your eyeshadow. A lot of people these days go for neutral, but that doesn’t always mean neutral is best. If you have gone with a darker hair color, consider brightening up your makeup for a bolder look. If you have lighter-toned hair color, maybe reconsider those bright eye shadows as they can make you look washed out.
Choosing the right tone for your eyeshadow based on your hair color is also critical to avoid looking washed out. If you have rainbow hair, this would be where the neutral eyeshadows shine! Light golds and warm browns allow your hair to be the star of the show without competing with extra color on the eye. If you have bold hair that is a cool tone like blue, purple, or gray, light blue-toned eyeshadow is your friend. If your hair is more of a warm tone, keep your eye shadow in the red/orange family. No matter what tone you choose for your eyeshadow, you can show some personality with your eyeliner by using it to define your eye shape or be a little more dramatic for the evening with a cat-eye.
Don’t Get Too Spicy With Your Lip Liner
The more vivid your hair color is, the more subtle your lip liner should be. For example, if you have purple hair, nudes are your friends for this one! However, if you have a lighter hair color, such as platinum blonde hair, then you can go with more of a statement lip liner like red or even burgundy. The secret lies in the balance. If you’re vivid and colorful, then let your hair do the work and the lip liner be the compliment.
Are You Wearing The Right Foundation?
Skin is the most important element to your look. Finding the foundation that best matches your skin tone is key. You want your skin to resemble flawlessness, instead of everyone noticing it. Even being one tone off on your foundation can draw the wrong attention. Your makeup should not be heavy or thick looking, and choosing the right foundation can provide a smooth look.
If you have bright hair color, consider contouring and highlighting to help pull your look together without using too much color. After all, you do want your new hair color to shine.
Consider Your Blush Type
Your cheeks are a great place to add in a pop of color, especially if you are contouring and highlighting. You don’t want to look too flat, and rosy cheeks happen to be very in-style right now. You can use a creme blush or even creme lipstick to add this little pop of color!
