Why this worksEarthy tones provide a natural warmth that complements the cold weather while enhancing your features. They create a soft, inviting look that feels effortless and cosy. Using these shades can also help bring a touch of colour to your winter complexion, making it look fresh and radiant.

The ritual, step by step

  1. Prep Your Skin Start with a moisturiser suitable for your skin type to create a smooth base. Follow up with a hydrating primer to ensure your makeup stays put and looks fresh all day.
  2. Choose Your Earthy Palette Select an eyeshadow palette featuring warm browns, soft terracottas, and muted greens. These shades are perfect for creating depth and dimension on your eyelids.
  3. Warm Up Your Cheeks Use a cream blush in a soft peach or warm terracotta shade. Cream products blend beautifully into the skin, giving you a natural flush that looks like you’ve just come in from the cold.
  4. Finish with Lips Opt for a lip product in a nude or warm berry shade. A tinted lip balm or a creamy lipstick will keep your lips hydrated while adding a touch of colour.

Where people go wrong

Many people skip skincare prep, which can cause makeup to look dry or patchy. Others may use too many contrasting colours, making the look less cohesive. Lastly, forgetting to blend products properly can lead to harsh lines.

The pro moveTry layering a bit of highlighter on your cheekbones for added warmth and glow without looking excessive.
