Lavender Hair + Dark Lips: Why the Contrast Works
Pastel doesn’t have to be faint; it can be focused. Here’s how I pair soft tones with a bold focal point so the look reads calm, not chaotic.
The trick: stay flat and matte with surfaces, and let texture (satin, velvet) do the storytelling. Keep the palette to three pastels and one anchor shade. Mine: lavender, blush, baby blue + ink.
