Work Greenery Into Your Beauty Products
The Pantone color of the year for 2017 is Greenery. It is a soft, neutral green that evokes a sense of calm mixed with the feelings of new beginnings. Think of an early spring forest if you were to step into one right after winter months — that is Greenery. Pantone says this color will provide us with the reassurance we seek in these tumultuous times and that it symbolizes our want to reconnect with nature, others and something larger than ourselves.
Since green is a color associated with new beginnings, think of applying Greenery to your beauty products for 2017 and feel inspired to rejuvenate and revitalize yourself for this coming year. Below are some Greenery-colored products that can be incorporated into your daily beauty routine:
Make Up For Ever Artist Eyeshadow and Blush in Apple Green is a pretty, metallic green that can be worn alone or blended with other colors to wear during the day or for a night out. The hue of this green is blendable, so a couple strokes during the day with some pastel colors would look great, while mixing it with some darker shades would work well for a date night.
