Rock Lemon Yellow With These Makeup Hues

Atelier Versace Spring 2012

Holidays can give you a boost of confidence in the beauty department. Your skin is tanned and salt water cleansed, your hair has subtle highlights having been bleached from the sun, and your fourteen-day gelish mani/pedi polish is lasting the distance. At night, it’s your chance to up the ante and opt for vivid colors to offset your tan and choose metallic shadows to accompany your dewy complexion.

What makeup does someone pair with a lemon yellow cocktail ensemble, for example?

Model, Lindsey Wixson, posted this image of herself and Josephine Skriver backstage at the Atelier Versace Spring 2012 runway show this week, giving us a reminder about which direction to take.

Think buttery nudes and vivid metallic swatches of color for lips, eyes, and cheeks, topped off with kohl liner and lashings of mascara. If you want to add a complimentary shade into the mix, then look no further than a rich plum.
