Pantone recently announced their pick of the colours for spring, Cayenne – bright popping, hot coral! I know it’s no where near Spring in Australia, I mean, I’m still in Summer mode! But for my Northern Hemisphere babes, read on.
As I know I can’t afford these Stila picks of the colour of Spring, Pantone’s Cayenne, I do know now after some nifty web browsing where you can pick up some amazing cheap alternatives!
Eyeshadow
Makup Geek | “Mango Tango” | US $5.99
Makeup Geek has become a well known name when it comes to cheap, high quality makeup items. This eye shadow is no different. Described as a being “a little bit tart, a little bit sweet, this orangey pink shadow will put a little movement in your feet.” The bottom line to this shade is: peachy pink with flecks of gold.
Lipstick
Shanghai Suzy | “Miss Sarah-Jane Neon Coral” | AUD$12.95
I can’t go past Shanghai Suzy without buying like 8 lipsticks. They’re awesome pigmentation and super nourishing formula’s have totally set the bar high, at such a low price too! All in all, this punchy coral colour will keep you swaying in the breeze until the sunset is as coral as your lips.
Blush
Bourjois Paris Blush | “16 Rose Coup de Foudre” | AUD$20.00
This beautiful blush just makes me want Spring to hurry it’s butt up and get here! With a delectable rose scent which is standard in Bourjois blushers, and such a luxury, and a beautiful buttery baked texture, application is a breeze! The blush you get from being in love is almost as good as this, almost. 😉
Lip Gloss
NYX Xtreme Lip Cream | “Bonfire” | US$6.00
Wowza, is this one a bright punch of colour, the lip gloss settles into a long-wearing silk finish. The vivid colours of this range are perfect for a statement lip or an overall bright look. Bonfire is a very true “Cayenne” colour, totally worthy of it’s place on this list.
What colour will you be coveting this season?

Love this color!
So do I! Are you currently going into Autumn or Spring?
Currently going into Spring!
Ah, so lucky! Australia is seriously not good with adhering to its seasons, it’s still sweltering summer days here!
Gotcha! Yeah I’m so not looking forward to the summer. I hate the heat and hot weather!
I’m so looking forward to Winter. Winter is more like a cool summer day where we live though haha.
