Get Radiant with Pantone's color of the Year-Radiant Orchid

In case you are not familier with Pantone, they are the, Self proclaimed, "World Authority" on color. And whether or not you have ever heard of them, they do have a great impact on all the products you see, and buy, and often work with, or just paint your room. They offer palettes of colors for everything from business, design, interior decor and well as furnishings, soft goods, and, of course, makeup!
In the past few years we have certainly seen the vibrant trend really showcased in the Pantone choices. For 2012 the color was Tangerine Tango a very vibrant, tangy sahde of orange- beautiful, fun but not all that wearable for everyone.  My closest shade is Tangy-Eyesahdow and Succulent Cheek Color.

These shades would look great on Deeper skin tones, and anyone with a sense of fun and adventure. But, admittedly are not going to be for everyone! (not even myself gals)
 In 2013 we got Emerald. A gorgeous shade, one of my favorites actually is greens/teals and always a first choice for me for most things. BUT, again can often be a little bit of a challenge to wear. Brown eyed, slightly deeper to dark skinned gals had it a bit easier- as some of these shades look amazing with brown eyes- I have to say I am quite the fan of this Dramatic Look and I re-created it using a few of my own shades-(just to name a few)

Seductive

But, for 2014- I am so happy to say that Pantone's color of the year-Radiant Orchid is easily one of the MOST wearable colors! There is a shade or tone to fit any skincolor, eye color, hair color- you name it!!!! I am happy to say that At Fortunate Face Minerals we offer more than just a few shades for Eyes and Cheeks (most can be used on lips as well!) Two of my personal favorites are Divinity Eye Shadow and Fearless Cheek Color.
