If you haven’t yet realised (or tactically chose to avoid it) millennial pink has been dominating the beauty trends.
Whether you’re a pink girl or not, you can’t deny that sweet tones of this shade can instantly brighten up a day and take you back to childhood memories of strawberry sweets and Barbie dolls.
Embrace millennial pink in a subtle way and focus on one part of your features. Don’t feel the need to have pink cheeks and bold fuchsia lip, less is more no matter how much you love this shade.
1. Go Easy on Soft Pastels
When using the same tone for definition on eyes, lips, and cheeks take a subtle approach to give you an even finish without a chalky result.

2. Do Bright Eyes
For a grown up take on neon pink, keep the rest of the look neutral and layer the bright shade with other colours like coral and red to stop it looking one dimensional.

3. Be Cheeky
The most natural place for the pink shade to go is your cheeks. This time however, blend beyond apples of the cheeks and up towards the eyelids for a rosy glow. Make sure to choose the shade that compliments your skin tone, you want flushed cheeks, not clown makeup.

4. Pink Kisses
One of the best ways to add a touch of pink to your beauty look is the lips. Don’t be shy, apply straight onto the lips in multiple strokes for a textured finish and avoid anything too glossy.

5. Polished
Up your nail game with a couple of coats of the pink shade and make it a millennial mani. Opt for matte to score extra fashion points.
