Rose Quartz and Serenity | Color of The Year 2016



Many of us mistakenly thought the colour of the year is Pantone. Pantone is a colour institute name not the name of the colour. This year 2016, the colour of the year is Rose Quartz and Serenity. From the name itself ( Rose Quartz ) we can get to know it is a rose tone. It is a soft baby pink. Whereas, Serenity in the other hand is a cooler tranquil blue. According the Executive Director, Leatrice Eiseman from Pantone Colour Institute, she said that joining of that both colours demonstrate an inherent balance between a warmer and cooler colour reflecting connection and wellness as well as a soothing sense of order and peace. We can incorporate these colours in our daily life like fashion and beauty. 


In this post I would like to give some ideas on how to incorporate our colour of the year ( Rose Quartz and Serenity ) in our daily makeup routine. 

Beauty Tips : 

  • Try to use the colours ( Rose Quartz and Serenity ) on your eyelids and blend those colours with taupe or brown (no shimmer) into your crease for more subtle and everyday kind a look. 
  • Use pink lipstick or lipgloss for more natural and everyday look without looking too weird. 
  • Use bronzer when you applying your pink coral blush on your cheek to give dimension to your face without looking to flat. 
  • Coat your lashes with layers of mascara if you applying pink or blue eyeshadow to make sure you don't look like straight out of hospital. 
  • If you are not a fan of pinks and blues try to use red lipstick ( a very stable colour all year round ) and draw a thick blue eyeliner on your eye lids with coats of mascara and contour to give that sophisticated office look. 




I find this year colour is unique combination and it look good in its own too. However, I personally think that Marsala (2015 colour) is my favourite colour.
