Pink is a color that’s been around for centuries, and it has stood the test of time. It has so many different hues, from baby pink to dark magenta, that you can wear it year-round and never get bored with it. Pink may be one of the most popular colors in fashion right now, but what does makeup have to do with wearing a pink dress, and more specifically, what makeup goes with a pink dress?
Thankfully, there are several makeup ideas you can match with your favorite pink dress. It’s also a color that can be described as youthful, innocent, or romantic. You know what I’m talking about if you’ve ever seen a baby wearing a pink dress or onesie. And in this piece, I will show you how to style your face with a pink dress effortlessly.
15 Makeup Ideas for Pink Dress
The following are 15 awesome light pink dress makeup ideas you could never go wrong on:
1. Light pink eyes makeup
Light pink eyeshadow can be worn during the daytime and at night, depending on your mood and occasion. Light pink eyeshadow looks great with dark hair and fair skin tone. If your eyes are brown or hazel, then make sure you apply light pink eyeshadow on your lids only. Otherwise, it will make them look lighter in color. To get this look, follow these steps:
1. First, apply an eyeshadow primer to ensure that your eye shadow stays on all day long without creasing or fading away.
2. Apply a light shade of pink on your lids using a flat brush starting from the inner corner of your eye towards the outer corner, blending it well, so there are no harsh lines left behind.
3. Then apply another layer of the same shade over the first one making sure not to cover up too much of it so that there’s still some visible.
2. Mauve lips makeup
Mauve lips have been a favorite of mine for years. It looks great on any skin tone and can be worn with matte and shimmery eye shadows. I love how mauve lipsticks can be worn on their own or paired with other shades for a dramatic look. The method of getting the perfect mauve lip color is finding one that’s not too purple or too pink.
It has to be just right in the middle, so I recommend looking for shades that are more on the brown side rather than blue-based ones. You can apply your lipstick directly from the tube or use a lip brush for more control over where you place it on your lips. If you choose to use a brush, start by applying some lip balm over your entire mouth to make application easier and less drying on your lips.
Then, swipe your lip brush across the lipstick and gently tap off any excess before applying it to your lips. The most crucial step when creating a mauve lip look is blending. Once you’ve applied all of your products, take an angled blush/contour brush and blend out any edges until everything looks seamless and smooth.
3. Baby pink lips makeup
Baby Pink Lips Makeup is an excellent look for those with fair skin and light eyes. This look can be achieved with very little product, but it will take some time to complete. Start by using a tinted moisturizer or foundation to even out your skin tone before applying your blush. Apply a light pink eye shadow to your lids, especially to the creases.
Then, use a darker color in the creases of your eyes to create depth. Use an eyeliner pencil to draw an exaggerated line on both top and bottom lashes. Curl your lashes and apply mascara liberally before curling them again; this will help prevent smudging when you apply lipstick. Apply a nude lip liner around your lips, then fill in the rest with lipstick; choosing a shade that complements your eye shadow is vital.
4. Rose smoky eyes makeup
Smoky eyes are a classic look for a reason. It’s easy to create and always looks chic. But if you’re looking for a slightly different twist on the traditional smoky eye, a rose-colored version is just what you need.
To achieve this look, use the same techniques as creating any other Smoky eye. Start by applying a thin layer of black eyeshadow all over your eyelid up to your brow bone. Use a flat eyeshadow brush to blend it into your crease and blend it towards your brow bone. This will give you an even base color that will make the rest of your application easier to blend.
Using a tapered blending brush or small smudge brush, apply a light pink shadow in the same area where you applied the black shadow as in the previous step. Using short strokes, apply more pink shadow until you have built up some intensity of color in this area. Next, using an angled liner brush or pencil, draw along your upper lash line starting from the middle and working inward towards each corner of your eye until it reaches about halfway across your lid.
5. Nude lips and subtle eyeshadow makeup
Nude lips and subtle eyeshadow is the perfect makeup look for a night out on the town. Whether it’s date night or a girls’ night, this look will turn heads. The key to this look is to avoid going overboard with your lipstick and eyeshadow. Use nude lipstick or gloss, which will leave your lips looking soft and natural without being too much of a statement.
Using a soft blush brush, you can add some definition by applying a darker shade of blush to the apples of your cheeks. When it comes to your eyes, use neutral colors that match well with your skin tone. Try eyeliner in brown or taupe and mascara in black or brown. For eyeshadow, choose shades that have some sparkle but aren’t too shimmery or glittery.
6. Dusty pink eyeshadow makeup
Dusty pink is a beautiful color that has been around for many years. It is one of the most famous eyes shadow colors because it looks great on everyone and goes with everything.
Dusty pink is a soft, muted pink shade with a subtle orange undertone. This gives it an earthy feel. It will work well with any other color or without any different shade. You can wear this color alone if you want to go for a more subtle look, or you can use it as an accent color to highlight certain features on your face.
The best way to get this color is by using mineral makeup or powder blush on your lips, cheeks and eyes. If you want more of an orange undertone in your skin, try using bronzer instead of blush on your cheeks and neck area.
7. Nude eye makeup
Nude eye makeup is an excellent look for any skin tone. It’s all about making your eyes pop and accentuating your natural beauty. The idea is to use colors that enhance your natural skin tone to look like you are not wearing any makeup.
Though the term “nude” can be used to describe any shade of beige or brown, it’s also commonly used to describe eye shadow colors that are lighter than your natural skin tone. These colors can make your eyes appear larger and brighter, but they won’t necessarily make them pop unless you apply them correctly.
8. Red brows and baby pink shimmer makeup
Red brows are a fun way to get ready for the holidays, but they can be challenging to pull off if you’re not a makeup artist. Start by applying your foundation and concealer as you normally would. Then take a brow pencil and fill in any sparse areas with light strokes. Using a spoolie brush, blend them out, so they look natural.
Next, grab some baby pink eyeshadow, then apply it underneath your brow bone with a dampened brush. Next, grab the same eyeshadow shade, but use it on your lids instead of under your brows. Don’t worry too much about blending; there’s nothing wrong with having some color peeking through.
Now, apply a deep red shadow onto your lower lash line and above your upper lash line. You can swipe some onto your outer corners if you’d like; make sure it’s not too heavy-handed. After you’ve applied the red shadow, take another small brush and dip it into white cream highlighter or shimmery powder, then dab it onto it.
9. Soft pink makeup look
This is a stunning look that features soft pink tones. The blush, eye shadow, and lipstick are all in pastel shades of pink. This look can be worn during the day or at night. The blush is randomly applied to the cheeks. It gives more of a natural look than if used in a straight line.
The eye shadow goes from light to dark, going from the top of your eyes to the bottom eyelid. The lipstick has a matte finish and goes on very smoothly. The main thing about this look is how natural it looks. It’s not overdone and doesn’t stand out too much, but it still makes you feel pretty while giving you the perfect amount of color.
10. Sparkle in your eyes makeup
Sparkle in Your Eyes Makeup is a form of cosmetic that consists of tiny dots of shimmering material added to the face, neck and other body areas. The sparkles can be applied with various methods, including brushes, sponges and fingers.
The primary purpose of this type of makeup is to create an effect that makes it appear as though there are tiny stars on your face at all times. Sparkle in Your Eyes Makeup works by adding a layer of glitter onto clean skin. Depending on personal preference, this layer may be applied directly over your foundation or beneath it for increased longevity. The glitter will then sit atop your skin until you wash it off again with soap.
11. Shimmery rose gold eye
A rose gold eye makeup look is perfect for incorporating a little bit of the trending color into your beauty routine. It’s subtle enough that it won’t be too over-the-top but still makes an impact.
Rose gold eye makeup is also easy to update your look for spring and summer without spending hours staring at yourself in the mirror. This pink and copper metallic eyeshadow shade is perfect for warmer weather because it brings sunniness to your skin tone.
12. Natural makeup with rosy blush and nude lipstick
Natural makeup is the hottest trend in cosmetics today. The word “natural” evokes an image of freshness, youthfulness and purity. Natural makeup is not only the most popular choice for people who want to look good without looking artificial, but it is also the safest choice for people who have sensitive skin or are allergic to chemicals.
Natural makeup looks great on everyone because it allows you to highlight your best features and conceal your flaws without looking overly done. If you’re curious about natural makeup but don’t know where to start, here are some tips that will help you get started:
Use a good foundation and the right blush color. Foundation and blush are what makes your skin look flawless when applied correctly. A good foundation should be able to cover flaws while still allowing your natural skin tone to shine through so that you do not appear cakey or overdone.
13. Prom inspired soft cut crease look
Prom is a prime time for most girls. It’s the time of year when they can dress up in beautiful gowns and go to a dance with the person they love. If you have a little girl going to her first prom, you must make sure she looks terrific. Here are some tips on how to get the perfect prom look for your daughter:
Choose a soft-cut crease look. This effortless style will give your daughter an elegant look without too much effort. The best part about this haircut is that it works well on most face shapes and hair types.
14. Dramatic pink shadow look
This dramatic pink shadow look is perfect for a night out. It’s sultry and sexy, but it also has a glamour that makes it suitable for daytime wear. The best part about this look is that it’s easy to achieve. All you need is a light brown matte eyeshadow and a couple of different pink shades, plus some black eyeliner and mascara.
Once you have your makeup tools at the ready, follow these steps:
- Start by applying the darker shade over your entire lid area. For this look, I chose a shimmery dark brown color.
- Next, apply the lighter shade in the center of your lid. For this look, I chose a shimmery white color with pink undertones. Be sure to blend well, so there aren’t any harsh lines between the two colors.
- Finish off the look by applying black liner around your lower lash and tight lines. Then add mascara on top of that for extra drama.
15. Sophisticated soft pink cut crease with winged liner and light brows
If you’re looking for a color combination that screams “I’m sophisticated, but also not afraid to have fun,” this look is for you. The soft pink eye shadow blends seamlessly into the cut crease, while the winged eyeliner helps to create a dramatic effect.
The light brows add an air of mystery, perfectly balanced by the rosy cheeks and nude lips. It’s a quick way to create a dramatic eye that’s super easy to do. This soft pink cut crease is perfect for any occasion and simple enough for even the most novice makeup lovers.
The liner used here is a simple winged liner. This can be done with either gel or pencil liners, depending on how steady your hand is. I prefer gel liners because they are easier to work with and last longer than pencils.
The brows are kept light, so they don’t compete with the eyeshadow. You can use any brow product you like, but I recommend powder or cream products instead of pencils so that they blend better into your skin tone and don’t look too harsh against your face.
