Asian Makeup - Spring Colors

Quick Tip

I have chosen these particular makeup colors to compliment Asian skin. While these are spring colors, I wouldn't let that stop you from trying them out.

Eye Shadow: Begin with a soft peach in the corner. Extend to halfway on lid. Pick up a small amount of pale green and work a little into the peach and then continue across to outer edge of eye. Wrap the pale green around and below eye.

Eye Liner: Narrow line of forest green/brown from corner to corner.

Mascara: Two coats of black

Blush: Pale apricot on cheeks to define, but for this look, it is almost invisible... the lightest touch is all you will need.

Lips: soft, soft apricot on lips. A dot of a deeper peach will be then blended onto the center of the bottom lip to give a slightly pouty look.

Notes: the eyes are the focal point of this look, but nothing is strong. This face is soft and innocent even though we are using a lot of green with this look.
