Wearing green can be tricky. Of course, there are those super lovely redheads who can pull it off and almost always look super elegant, but I myself struggle with finding the perfect shade. As i try to find something great to wear for St. Patrick’s Day (Yes, it’s actually on a Friday this year, folks!), I also found myself pondering what makeup to pair with a color I don’t often sport. Coincidentally, Pantone’s color of the year also happens to be greenery, which prompted DeRiah’s friends at Rouge Bunny Rouge to write a blog feature on their favorite makeup pairings to complement the festive hue. I love that they took the time to solve a problem I had, even before I knew I had it, and I loooove even more that their advice is flawless.
Below is my favorite feature, but feel free to check out the full piece here. And as always, stop in at DeRiah Boutique Salon’s Mequon location to pick up your favorite Rouge Bunny Rouge products!
