Beauty buys featuring Pantone’s 2015 Color of the Year, Marsala
By Carla Snuggs 

Welcome 2015! When Pantone’s 2015 Color of the year, Marsala, was revealed I was so excited. Although this had me dreaming of food, it also gives me a pigment that can be incorporated into some great beauty regimens!

I really enjoy deep, rich reds. This naturally robust and earthy wine red color is a great way to enrich your look this holiday season. Bring in 2015 with a statement with products  that display this becoming shade on your lids, lips and nails.
