While we still might be in the winter season I personally can’t wait for spring. With that thought in mind, I already find myself gravitating towards peaches and coral tones for my makeup on the daily. Peachy makeup looks have retained their popularity and for a good reason too. Peach is one colour that can be ethereal but can also pack a powerful punch. Plus it’s one shade that looks gorgeous against all skin tones. No matter how fair or deep you are it gives the skin a warm yet brightening glow and is super flattering. While you might see more of these tones spring and summer, it serves great for autumn looks. Even a little peach blush in the middle of winter can give dull or tired skin that well-rested glow!
Wondering how to actually use the shade? Well, that’s up to you, it looks fabulous no matter where you put on the face! But a great starting point would be to find your personal perfect shade of peach. You can rock any shade on the spectrum you please but generally speaking, fairer tones opt for more pastel soft peaches and as if your skin is deeper you can rock more corals and tangerine like infused hues. Ahead we’ve listed our guide on how you can totally work peachy makeup on your eyes, lips or cheeks for some stunning looks.
Keep scrolling to check out the best ways you can add this colour into your makeup looks:
1. Gradient effect
Looking for something with just a little extra oomph? Then this peach toned glam with gradient eyes and lips might be right up your alley. The eyes grab attention with a seamless blend of peach, orange and gold shades that work beautifully together. While the gradient lips are equally stunning and easy to recreate. First, you want to blend a lighter peachy colour all over the lips starting from the middle blending it outwards. Then top it off with a deep terracotta shade to add some dimension in the same manner.
2. Glossy peachy lips
Easy to achieve and super wearable, a peachy lip is perfect no matter the occasion. To achieve Selena Gomez’s supple lips opt for a more balmy formula. Alternatively, you could apply a peachy gel-like gloss on top of your favourite cream or matte lipstick in the same shade.
3. Blushed cheeks
Going in with a peach blush is always a good idea. It instantly perks up tired or sallow looking skin. Excluding a natural glow, you can opt for a dewy cream blush that looks great all year round, yes even during the winter months. You can even blend some on the eyes, temples and carry it down generously onto the cheeks for a chic look.
4. Simply peachy
Sometimes less is more and if you prefer a more minimalistic approach why not swap out your powder products for cream instead. Cream products just blend effortlessly onto the skin and with a dewy peachy shade, it can imitate a natural glow from within. Moreover, cream products work great to perfect an effortless no-makeup makeup look.
5. Smokey moment
Go more sultry with the edges with a touch of deep brown paired with your favourite peach on the eyes. First, get your base shadow done. Then all you need to do is apply a dark brown shadow to the top and bottom lash line and smudge it with a brush to get that smokey liner effect. And voila you just went from a day to night look with just simple addition,
6. Dew for days
How mesmerising is this dewy look! The skin looks hydrated and sunkissed with the right amount on peachy-pink tones on the cheeks and juicy plumping gloss on the lips. For extra shine use highlighting drops on the highest points on your face where the light naturally hits. This will replicate that fresh glow from within.
7. Dramatic liner
An otherwise lovely monochromatic peach look, it’s easily elevated to the next level with the addition of a graphic winged eyeliner. It’s fun, trendy and makes a statement for those who love more bold looks or choices.
