Blue may not be a new colour in the world of beauty, but that doesn’t mean we can’t look for fresh, creative ways to wear it. From azure lashes to winged liner and beyond; the colour is fresh, cool and perfect for summer. Here are five of our favourite ways to work the hue:
Line it
If you’re over the cat eye, try winging your aqua liner out on the inner corners of your eyes. The result? A futuristic, feline look.
Smoke it
Who doesn’t love a smoky eye? The rule with blue is the same as the one for neutral eyeshadow: use two shades – one light and one dark. Use the lightest hue up to your crease and work the darker shade along your lashline.
Tip it
Why paint your nails blue when you can paint them sapphire and turquoise? A dual-tone mani is great for the beach.
Lash it
The thing with blue mascara is that is does look outrageously bright in the tube, but once it’s on it is flattering. It has all the intensity of black but catches the light giving your peepers serious impact.
Chalk it
Yes, blue hair! A slicked-back ‘do with chalked in streaks is playful and perfect for warm weather. Plus, chalking in colour means you can go bright without actually making a permanent colour commitment. If you’re into trying out blue strands, just remember to keep the rest of your makeup light.
So, are you ready to dive right in?
