Emilia Clarke’s Honey Blonde: A Complexion Enhancer
Emilia Clarke’s new hair color, expertly crafted by celebrity colorist Nicola Clarke, features a harmonious blend of golden, caramel, and honey hues. This warm blonde shade naturally radiates her face, softens her features, and gives her skin a golden glow. “It’s perfect for her complexion and adds a golden light to her face,” explains Nicola Clarke. This illuminating effect is especially beneficial for brightening the complexion after 40.
As we age, our skin can lose some of its natural radiance. A lighter color like honey blonde can brighten the face, soften features, and impart a more youthful appearance. Golden and honey tones are particularly flattering as they warm the complexion and conceal minor imperfections.
How to Achieve the Honey Blonde
To get Emilia Clarke’s stunning honey blonde, here’s what to ask your hairdresser for:
- Golden and caramel tones: for a luminous and natural effect.
- “Money pieces”: lighter strands around the face to brighten the complexion and highlight your features.
- Blended effect: ask for balayage or highlights for a subtle and natural result.
Haircuts to Consider After 40
With such a radiant color, the right haircut can further rejuvenate your appearance. Consider these options:
- Angled bob: modern and elegant, it frames the face perfectly.
- Soft waves: for a relaxed and youthful look.
- Lob (long bob): a length that sits just above the shoulders, easy to style and very trendy.
- Textured fringe: softens features and provides an instant youthful lift.
