1. Hot Pink Dress or Fuchsia Dress
With a hot pink dress, you can try soft smokey eyes while keeping the lips softer for the day time. Lipcolors like peachy pink, soft orange and even the light pink looks good. If you are wearing hot pink dress for the night time, a beautiful deep red in matte texture can also work to enhance your beauty. Moreover, you can also try pink eye makeup, keeping the lip color soft and subtle. The classy combination of neutrals also works brillinatly with a hot pink dress. A simple winged eyeliner with false eyelashes along with a peachy creamy lip color will look fantastic. Pink smokey eye makeup is just amazing for any pink dress.
I like to go for a peachy lipcolor teamed up with a thick winged eyeliner and a neutral shadow, this works the best for me for the day time. Moreover, this makeup idea makes me look fresh. It can be flaunted for summers and winters.
3. Candy Floss Pink Dress
Candy floss pink dress itself is a very over whelming and bright color, therefore, the makeup for such pink dresses should be kept light for the day time. While for the evening, you can surely try a bright bold lipcolor. Pink is a color that will not make you look weird, even if you are using a bright lip color. So, which lipstick shades to go with this color? Well, we would recommend, you can try a peachy pink, orange, strawberry red or even a deep oxblood or marsala colored lipstick with your hot pink dress. A neutral with kohl rimmed eyes also does the job in making you look sultry for the evening. Kohl always does the magic, you see!!
4. Peachy Pink
Peachy pink is a shade of pink with more warmth in it. We will advise you to try a hot pink lip color with peachy pink as the combination is deadly and makes you look ultra glamorous. The eye makeup can be subtle, with just a simple classy winged liner. Moreover, the cheeks can be kept subtle peachy. But, if you have got dusky complexion then, we will recommend you to try a soft lip color and do not go overboard with hot pinks.
5. Pale Pink
Pale pink dresses like Cinderella pink and blush pink are suitable for proms and for the bridesmaids’ dress. The makeup should be soft for such pink colored dresses. The lips painted in pale pink or peachy with a neutral makeup on the eyes, with a champagne color on the eyelids with liner and mascara, does a perfect job in aligning the entire day look for you.
How to apply Eye Makeup?
- Apply a light base which also acts as an eye primer. This will make your eye shadow crease-less and stick for long.
- You can use a wine shade on the eyes with the matching lipcolor, if you are going to attend an evening function.
- Shade of choice is totally your call.
- While for the day time a peachy or neutral colors works the best keeping the bare minimum on the lips.
- Apply the eye shadow on the lids and then taking a brown shadow blend it into the crease of the eyes.
- This step defines your eyelids.
- Finish off with a liner and mascara.
- This will create a soft smokey look with a dewy lip color.
6. Coral Pinks or Blush Pinks
Corally pink is a beautiful color that looks amazing on medium to fair skin. You can either try a neutral soft makeup for coral pink dress or try a brown smokey look. With the coral pink dresses, a light dash of golden eye shadow with a soft winged liner looks amazing. It can be made darker for the evening, by darkening the crease with a brown eyeshade but keeping the gold shadow on the lids. Try a blush that is peachy or corally in color. This creates a beautiful complementing look.
If you are wondering which lipsticks looks good with coral pink dress, then you can choose colors like wine, hot pink, corally pink, orange and reddish orange. Orange lip gloss looks beautiful when used with the pink coral dress. For pink saree, a peachy brown or a subtle range looks good for the day time.
