Spring Beauty Pinspiration: Radiant Orchid Beauty Looks

Posted by Christina | Tuesday April 1, 2014

I am extremely guilty of spending the majority of my free time on Pinterest. It is so addicting and has me planning everything from tonight's dinner to what my future house will look like. And yes, my boyfriend and family do think I'm crazy because of this. But it's super useful - especially for us beauty and fashion Chicks who are always looking for Pinspiration, like new spring trends!

Lately I've been pinning a lot of make up ideas straight off the Spring 2014 runways, and I can't help but notice all the shades of purple. Now, I'm not complaining because purple just happens to be this Chicks favorite colour. With some easy online shopping... oops I mean research at Sephora, I found the collaboration of Sephora and Pantone Universe Artistry Se t which features makeup in the shades of 2014 colour of the year Radiant Orchid. The purple trend is starting to make a lot more sense now!

Here are a few of my favorite Radiant Orchid runway looks from Spring 2014 runways and of course some of my own Pinspiration:

Radiant Orchid brightens up the eyes and also adds some much needed colour for spring. The light purple shades keep this look fresh and easy to wear.

Lips

It takes some guts to wear purple lipstick and rock it! These runway looks show various shades; for those Chicks who love experimenting with new lip colour and those who are more into the subtle shades.

Nails

Although the runway didn't feature a lot of Radiant Orchid nail art, here are some super cute purple nail Pinspiration for your next mani date.

What are some of your favourite Spring 2014 beauty trends? Do you find Pinspiration for beauty on Pinterest?
