We love being on-trend but we also don’t believe that you have to spend all of your money to achieve the perfect look. Here’s how you can change your make-up from summer to winter without breaking the bank.

Nailed it!
If you’re going to let those fingers peek out, make sure they showcasing a warm winter shade. Add black nail polish to your lighter summer shades to create a darker, richer shade. Mix it in a separate bottle or bowl and paint away.
Warm up your Blush
During warmer months, a pink flush on the cheeks spells ‘summer ready’ but for winter, you want to warm up your blush, going for a more brown/burnt orange undertone.
Mix some powdered foundation with your blusher to darken the blusher and give your cheeks a skintone hue rather than looking like you have rosy cheeks from the cold.
If you have fair skin, you can also use bronzer with blusher to warm up the shade. You can mix liquid foundation of bronzer with cream blusher.
