2013's Most-Wanted Makeup Colors

POPPY RED LIPSTICK

Pair strong lips with a shimmery neutral shadow and highlighter on the cheekbones (choose pearly shadows and highlighter for fair skin and gold ones for darker complexions).

 

COPPER EYE SHADOW

Put your played-out gold or silver shadow aside: Smoldering copper is sexier and more grown-up. Pair it with smudgy black liner to give definition to your eyes.





CHARCOAL NAIL POLISH

 Here's the thing about a lot of trendy nail colors: They're really fun...if you're 18. Enter charcoal. It's sophisticated, chic, and works for any age or skin tone

SHEER PLUM BLUSH

Sheer plum blush gives cheeks a flushed, fresh, athletic look.

 

 

 

 

 

 SKY BLUE EYE SHADOW AND LINER

Yes, you read that correctly: Sky blue shadow is back. Keep the shade from looking too retro or costumey by wearing it as an eyeliner. Or pair sky blue shadow with black liquid liner

 

 

 

OPAQUE WHITE NAIL POLISH

Remember when you would use Wite-Out as a makeshift nail polish when you were bored in fourth-grade homeroom? (No? That was just me?) Take that idea, dial up the sophistication factor about 100 percent, and you'll end up with one of the hottest nail shades for 2013. But you don't want to look like you're actually wearing the correction fluid, so choose a nonstreaky nail polish formula with a shiny finish.

HOT PINK LIPSTICK

There's this grunge haute couture thing going on for a Courtney Love-inspired lip. (Yup, that's really back.) Fuchsia is striking on dark complexions.
