Being minty fresh isn’t just about your breath this season, it’s about what you wear. With pastels coming back in for spring, the colour that we’ll be rocking is that cool, mint colour that gives your tan a little more oomph.

Mint green is the new neutral. It’s fresh and clean and gives your basics a refreshing twist. Mint green is startlingly minimalist; the new white. Strappy sandals, jewellery and clean cut dresses, pants and jackets as a sophisticated change from florals for spring.
Think mint green at the races and on Sunday morning brunch trips to your local cafe. Mint green is a perfect addition to your wardrobe; the green tones will help remove the look of red tones from your skin, while the lightness and brightness of the colour give you the effect of an added tan.
Think mint green isn’t your colour? You’re probably wrong, as it’s quite versatile in the different ways it works with each skin tone and the number of shades you can find. But if you’re not a fan of the minty green for your outfit, you could try it in the way of accessories, shoes or beauty, such as nail polish or a bit of coloured eyeliner. You can even get a mint green lipstick!
Mint green can never go wrong when you’re pairing it with white. If you’re a bit confused as to what colours to wear it with, try it with the same soft, pastel shades.
Mint is the classic summer colour; it’s fun, bright and full of possibilities, just like the season!
