Why this worksJewel tones like emerald greens, deep blues, and rich purples add vibrancy and depth to your makeup. These colours complement a variety of skin tones and enhance your features, making them ideal for festive occasions. The right application techniques can elevate these shades from bold to beautifully blended.

The ritual, step by step

  1. Prep Your Skin Start with a clean, moisturised face. Use a primer to create a smooth base for your makeup, helping jewel tones apply more evenly and last longer.
  2. Apply Jewel Tone Eyeshadow Choose a jewel tone eyeshadow that suits your style. Using a flat brush, apply the shadow on your eyelids, and blend the edges with a fluffy brush for a seamless look.
  3. Define Your Eyes Line your eyes with a coordinating eyeliner to enhance the jewel tones. You can go for a classic wing or a softer line, depending on your vibe. Finish with mascara to make your eyes pop.
  4. Add Colour to Your Cheeks Select a blush that complements your jewel-toned eyeshadow. Apply it to the apples of your cheeks and blend towards your temples for a natural flush.
  5. Choose a Lip Shade Opt for a lip colour that balances your eyes. Nudes work well for a subtle look, while bold reds or pinks can create a dramatic effect. Just keep it cohesive!

Where people go wrong

Many people apply too much product, making jewel tones overpowering. Others forget to blend, resulting in harsh lines. Also, not prepping the skin can make colours look flat. Remember, balance is key!

The pro moveFor a more dramatic look, layer different jewel tones for added depth and dimension.
