Beauty – Go Bold This Winter With 2009 Winter Beauty Trends
Back To Articles
When it comes to winter, it can be difficult to figure out how to reorganize your beauty regime. The winter temperatures bring with them the dark and dreary blahs, and the winter landscape offers very little inspiration when it comes to color palettes. With this, it is even more important to go a little bold in the winter, and the best place to start is with your beauty regime. 2009 is the year to go big and bold, so don’t be shy in taking some risks and stepping outside your comfort zone when it comes to choosing colors for your face. And even the fairest of them all can choose bright bold colors that will complement skin tones and add just the right amount of pop to the quiet blahs of winter.
Start off with choosing bright eye colors and dark tones for your lips. Winter 2009 is calling for dramatic transformations when it comes to all the basics, eyes, lips, and cheeks. When the temperatures drop, combat it with some bold choices and you will definitely stand out in the crowd.
Thick brows are big this season, so if you like to get a little tweezer happy, train yourself to tone down a bit when you are tweezing. If you already have thick brows, you only need to tweak and hone to shape that perfect brow. Thinner brows can be filled in with some brow powder that matches your brow color, and you can fill in your lines with eyebrow pencil. Use a grey or light colored pencil to stencil out the shape you are looking for, and fill it in with brow color and eyebrow pencil.
When it comes to eyeliner, the perfectly natural look is so 2008. 2009 is going to showcase Asan inspired eyeliner trends which means jet black and charcoal colors and fine lines for a crisp and clean look. For a night out, extend the eyeliner just a smidge past the crease of your eyelid to create that perfect Asian inspired look. You will want to give your lashes a fringe effect, so use a mascara that separates and extends your lashes for big beautiful eyelashes that are just perfect for batting at your favourite eye candy.
The big and bold trend this winter does not stop with the eyes. Lips this winter are dark and plump and oh so bold. You will want to stock up on wine colored or burgundy tinted lip stains, or a heavier shade of lipstick. This look may seem a little too bold and out of your comfort zone, but throw that thought away. Pull it off with a lip liner in a complementary shade, and you can set your dark tint with a hint of matte gloss. This change is a dramatic switch from the nude lips showcased through spring and summer, so if you’ve needed an extra hit of attention, expect to get it when you move to dark plump and enticingly kissable lips. Complement your lip tone with a blush shade that is about two or three shades lighter than your lips but in the same color family. This will add just the right amount of rosiness to your pretty winter cheeks.
The last step in your winter beauty regime will be to take care of your nails. Nails can take a beating during those long cold winter months, so moisturize regularly and use a hardener or a strong clear base on your nails at all times. Use strong berry colors to complement the boldness of the season and your well maintained talons will tell the world that yes, you love to take care of yourself, and look great doing it.
Winter beauty does not have to co-ordinate with the blahs outside. In fact it shouldn’t. Use the colder temps as inspiration to warm up your entire look with the big bold colors of 2009 Winter beauty trends!
