Colors of the Rainbow

Spring is in full force now-a-days with blooming flowers, green parks, and warmer weather! 
However, April showers bring May flowers. 
Rainy days may make some sad but remember those rainy days are just temporary! 
When the sun is in hiding, colorful make up can brighten any day! 
It could be rosy cheeks, pastel or jewel toned eyes, and just bitten lips, 
but whatever it may be, they are perfect for those days of rain and overcast skies.




Pastels are HUGE this season, so be on the look out! 
Nicole shows us how its done with this powder blue hue.

Scarlet makes pastel shades look anything but innocent!


With toffee colored eyes, 
a lavender inspired shadow makes the windows to her soul extra flirty!


Lilac isn't only the color of a baby's nursery but a fresh way to spruce up green eyes.


Navy isn't just for the military!
Lea's brown eyes show sophistication with this denim inspired color. 


Flushed cheeks aren't for those who just finished a serious work out,
it's a simple way to brighten up the face with minimal effort.


Emma keeps thing peachy keen with a color that is just that! 
With the placement focused on the apples of her cheeks, 
she radiates a youthful glow.


This model shows how blush cannot only awaken the face but contour the face as well.
With placing blush on the cheek bones, it creates an illusion of a slimmer, 
more defined bone structure.



Blush looks great on everyone, regardless of skin tone! 
The darker the complexion, the more room you have to play with different colors. 
We suggest that this model may have used cream blush which is a great way to mimic a sexy, dewy glow.


Kiera looks mysterious with a combo of flushed cheeks, just bitten lips, and smoldering eyes. 
Some may think this triple threat may be too much, 
ut she rocks it in the most romantic way. 



Rosie models not only for Victoria's Secret but the perfect lip for the spring season.
Just like her name, 
a rosy color looks beautiful especially paired with those blue eyes of hers!


With skin like porcelain, a rosy hue looks soft and romantic. 


Amanda's lips look soft and supple with a hint of color and it looks stunning.
A stain can help those who lack the natural rose hue and unlike lipstick, it won't need to be touched up after meals and unlike gloss, it's never sticky or gooey.



We hope that this little color guide can benefit you and help you venture out in the world of colors for this spring season. 
The sky is the limit!

Just in time for spring!

Spring seems to be in full bloom and with summer making its way around the corner, 
lighter locks are starting to become more and more popular! 
Clients are parting ways with their darker hues in exchange for lighter ones and we couldn't be more excited! 
Whether it's heavily highlighted for a drastic look, subtle hightlights for a sun-kissed look or even ombre, 
here are different pictures of spring and summer inspired hair just for you!



 


Subtle highlights are perfect for those who want a natural look however the more highlights you get, the lighter look you will achieve over all.


Ombre highlights are perfect for those who like a low maintenance look! You can go longer in between touch ups and it actually looks better as it grows out! It can be as subtle or as drastic as you like and it's a great choice for the summer.



Highlights aren't only used for people with darker hair but it also is an option for those to accentuate their lighter hues. To the left, Reese opts for cooler tones while Sienna keeps it warmer. 





If you enjoy the effortless look of waves and loose curls, highlights contribute to the laid-back style. A slight bend in the hair only adds to the sun kissed dimension that highlights give. 


Sometimes people who have a bronzed glow or olive complexions are turned off by the idea of lighter hair colors. Whatever the reason, highlights do not discriminate! A caramel color is loved by many!



Whatever style, tone, or look you are trying to achieve, highlights look gorgeous on everyone! 
Bring on the warmer months by welcoming them with summer ready hair!
