Get the look: Beauty buys to brighten your mood
The colour, scent and texture of the right beauty product can cheer you up like a chat with a friend, or act as a pick-me-up on a dreary Monday morning, says
Emma Stone wore a fresh flower-crown to work (well, to The Favourite New York premiere) in September and made Instagram smile. As expressions of ‘Hakuna Matata’ go, putting roses in your hair is right up there with wearing Celia Birtwell prints and playing Sly and The Family Stone. Her citron eye-shadow, taken from NARS Eyeshadow Duo in ‘Rated R,’ €34, is also pretty fresh. Beauty can be champagne-like in its evergreen appeal: Happy-making when you are on a high, but an even nicer boost when you are feeling down. Beyond hiding fatigue in the mornings, its colour, scent, and emollient effects can perk you up like a quick chat with a good friend.
