Flattering Winter Makeup Shades

Question: "Should I alter my makeup shades in winter?"

Answer: Yes. Natural light is grayer during the winter months, so skin can look dull and colors become muted. To create a more vibrant appearance, exfoliate daily and moisturize with a hydrating formula. Switch to a luminizing foundation for an extra glow. Swap powder shadow and blush for creams – they're more reflective.
