For hundreds of years people have given flowers to their loved ones as a token of love, friendship,
appreciation and compassion. Their fragile and incredible beauty always had the power
to delight and enchant. Because they signify cheerfulness, gerbera
daisies are often chosen for celebratory occasions such as weddings and birthdays. They symbolize
friendship and good luck. After priming, swipe a soft corally orange color across the lids.
Keep it very soft, there's no need for opaque shadows here.
Flower inspired makeup is all about soft lines, happy colors and fresh glow.
Orange flowers like orange/day lilies symbolize excitement and passion but also devotion and
freedom from worries. On the outer part apply a deeper and more
vivid corally shade for a slightly more vibrant look. Blend the edges very well. A matte shadow
close to your skintone can make the blending part a lot easier.
Highlight the inner corners of your eyes with a yellow eyeshadow
Orange colors, especialy when applied softly like ours here, can wash the face out. Therefore,
it is important to use the liner to return that excitement to the eyes. I am lining my
lower lashline with olive green shadow and the upper with a black. Stay away from the
gel liners, eyeshadows used as a liner will keep the eyes softer. I am lining my waterline
with black pencil liner. Then it's time for mascara and some fairly natural false lashes.
For the blush chose a warm color: a nude pink as me or a peachy, browny shade. The same
goes for the lips, let the eyes be the center of attention.
Any type of yellow flower, from roses to tulips and daffodils, symbolizes new beginnings and
bright, sunny days. Prime the lids with a golden base. On top I am applying a golden-
yellowy shade and on the outer part of the lid I am using a slightly darker yellow, almost
orange shadow to give some dimension. Blend the upper edge and bring the orange shade
into the crease for a little bit more depth. The iris flower was named after the ancient
Greek goddess Iris who was the God's messenger. Iris means "rainbow" in their language and
was considered to be the bond between Earth and heaven. This flower was symbolized the
concept of communication. Specifically, the three petals of the iris
flower represent faith, wisdom and valor or bravery. Today, the iris also represents admiration
and friendship. Line the upper lashline with a soft brown
shade. Highlight the inner corners of your eyes -- I decided to go for a yellowy -- green
tone. Line the waterline with white eyeliner if you want your eyes to look bigger and more
awake. For a special pop I applied some gold glitter eyeliner in the inner cornes as well.
Don't forget about mascara as it will make a huge difference when using very light eyeshadows.
For the cheeks I chose a corally pink creme blush which gives me the most natural glow.
Nude pink lipliner and a very sheer moisturizing lipstick and the makeup is complete.
To achieve that sparkly, radiant yet still soft and gentle look inspired by beautiful
amaryllis we're first going to apply some base on the lid and a shimmery white on top.
Concentrate the most of the color on the lid and blend up to the brow. To give some depth
and dimension to the eyes, gently swipe a soft brown color to your crease. The word
"amaryllis" means "to sparkle," in Greek referring to the bloom. Today, the amaryllis symbolizes
pride, determination and radiant beauty--the kind that emanates from an inner source and
flowers outward. Once you blend the crease color really well,
apply a slightly darker brown with a smaller brush. Make sure you're using matte colors
in the crease. For more sparkle I am adding a bit more of white under the brows. Next
line your lower lashline with the same darker brown as used in the crease. On the upper
lashline I am using a bronze red color. Again I went for the yellow in the teardot area.
To get a more radiant look on the eyes I decided to glam them up with some pinky-red glitter
liner. Apply mascara and a very soft peachy-pink blush because lips will get that pop of color.
I opted for a vibrant corally-red lipstick to complete this look.
To me flowers represent the joy of living. They accompany us through the happy moments
- births, birthdays, special achievements, celebrations and weddings. Flowers are coloring
our planet and our lives with their eternal beauty, they bring smile to our faces and
warmth to our hearts.
