Ruled by Mars, you are a cardinal fire sign and have a flair for all things adventurous. Of course, impatience becomes your Achilles heel but with your tenacity and passion for success and accomplishment, you can channel that confidence in the right direction and avoid going overboard. We’d suggest that you throw in some red in your appearance to match your fiery energy. A bright red lippie or a dazzling pair of pumps should splash some invigorating red in your life. If you are looking to stoke the fiery beauty by winds of change, then add a dash of glitter or iridescent shimmer to your makeup palette. Or simply, color your flowing tresses in a rosemary hue or a hue equally suited to your airy sign.

One of the most sturdy and stable signs on the chart, you are unlikely to reinvent the wheel. You like the comfort and stability of your tried-and-tested formulae and hence, like the earthiness of your sign exuding from your personal style as well. Since your classicism needs to be matched with your romanticism, you might want to simply set a clean canvas. Get your radiant complexion with a saffron-tinted cleansing oil and take to an organic mineral foundation for a glowing, refined texture.
