Transitioning make-up from winter can be a challenge. I’m entirely weary of the cold season’s heavy textures and deep tones. It’s a new year, and I’m inclined toward light formulations and general freshness – some colour.
This transition must be carefully conducted, however. The days may be starting their slow journey toward lengthening, but a glance around will confirm that we are still very much in winter. As a result, a glowing summer complexion with too many bright or pastel hues might look at best overly optimistic and, at worst, slightly deranged. It doesn’t help that such tones need a bright natural light to look their best. In the narrower, slightly greyer hue of winter, they can look chalky and leeched.
