Remember back in the day when we were obsessed with all things pink and rose gold? Well, it’s time to set the Rosè aside and embrace some sunshine. Yellow is the colour that is taking over Gen-Z’s social media feeds. From Kylie Jenner to Priyanka Chopra to our Plixxo Bloggers, it was all yellow. It would be safe to say that it is definitely the colour of the season!
While not a lot of us may be attracted to the colour, let me tell you, this sunny-side-up hue looks beautiful on every single skin tone. There’s something about the warm summery appeal of the colour that makes you stand out. You don’t have to pick a bright yellow, you can choose from florals, pastels, prints or even pick small statement pieces in the hue. If you already own a few yellow dresses you’ve probably already wondered about what kind of makeup you should wear.
Matching your makeup to black, white and pastel coloured clothes is probably the easiest. There’s not a lot of margin for error. But when it comes to brighter colours, picking the right makeup is slightly trickier. We’ve listed down a few pointers for you to figure out exactly how and why you should – match your makeup to complement that yellow dress!
A thumb rule to live by to do your makeup for bright outfits would be less is more. Don’t go OTT, focus on either your eyes or lips. Take inspiration from these celebrities and bloggers who have been slaying every hue in the golden spectrum.
A few lipsticks that look good when paired with a yellow dress are bright red, warm and mauve-brown, bright and berry pink and peachy browns.
Chitrangada Singh, Sonam Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra picked red lipsticks.
If you are unsure about how your blush would look with your lipstick… Skip the blush and use a warm, luminous bronzer instead. A bronzer or a blush that has a warm brown or cinnamon colour works best.
Take a cue from Jahnvi Kapoor’s nude lips, shimmery eyes and bronzed skin.
If you’re applying a bold colour of lipstick, keep your eye makeup to the minimal. A light wash of matte or shimmer eyeshadow looks beautiful paired with a bright lipstick. A few coats of mascara and a subtle winged-eyeliner is all you need.

If you’re wearing a nude lipstick, you could add some drama to your eyes. A subtle smokey eye, bold eyeliner and shimmery eyeshadow; all look great when paired with a nude lipstick.
