Spring Color Picks 2010
If
you follow any aspect of fashion, you’ve heard that the Pantone Color of the
Year for 2010 is Turquoise. Just hearing that news recently made me want to
redo my living room or at least add some turquoise accents. Did I? No but I it
did make me think of beauty products and how I could reflect the trend in my
everyday makeup look with a splash of liquid on my nails or powder on my lids. “Combining
the serene qualities of blue and the invigorating aspects of green, Turquoise
inspires thoughts of soothing, tropical waters and a comforting escape from the
everyday troubles of the world, while at the same time restoring our sense of
wellbeing.”
Other
colors of the Spring Season? Tomato Purée, Fusion Coral, Violet and Tuscany, to
name a few. So what does that mean to you? I’ll be highlighting some products
that showcase the colors in an on-going feature called Spring Color
Picks. First up? Turquoise and Tomato Purée. I’m pairing the soothing
blue-green and the tangy classic red in one feature as I think they balance
each other out nicely.
So you wanna see the product picks?

I'm a huge fan of turquoise, so I'm happy to see it be the 'It' color for summer. I also love corals for summer :)
