Hi everyone!

This is look #3 of my Spring/Summer Look Book after look#2 with Turquoise blue and green eye makeup.

For this look, I’ve used pink (reddish pink) and purple for the eyes paired with a violet-pink lip color and cool toned pink blush.

On a well moisturized face, apply light foundation, set it with compact and use cool toned pink blush on the apples of cheeks with a hint on bronzer on the cheekbones. For the eyes, apply medium cool-toned pink eyeshadow (inner 1/3rd of lid), reddish pink eye shadow (centre of lid) , purple eyeshadow ( outer 1/3rd , crease and lower lash line) with purple or black liner. Pair this with a violet – pink lipstick .

This may be a little OTT for everyday/office wear makeup but will look great for special events/occasions for day as well as night.

This is the final look -
