Ultra Violet Makeup Will Inspire You
Pantone Color Institute has unveiled its color of the year for 2018, and it is Ultra Violet. The color will help one cultivate their creative efforts. Think of a deep color that goes beyond the surface. Not like a fiery red or bombastic orange, but rather a color deep in shade that makes you feel at ease and want to easily communicate what what everyone might not be used too. That is what this deep blue-toned purple conveys in a color. Pantone’s executive director said that the color is a “dramatically provocative and thoughtful purple shade. Ultra Violet communicates originality, ingenuity and visionary thinking.”
Historically, a royal purple was seen as a sign of the upper monarchy, wealth and of the clothing of people of importance. Ultra Violet evokes a luxurious sense when associated with things, while still being a stand-out color for your brain since it is not normally found in nature. Take in all the greatness of Ultra Violet so that your mind and spirit can take on the new year with a spirit of holding oneself in high regard and deserving of luxurious moments with the following beauty products:
