Aqua makeup not only gives a cool and fresh look but also is soft, very light shaded and providing a perfect look with touch of cool. The shades used are mostly the same as those of different oceans like ocean blue also known as, aquamarine, ocean green, in fact this is bluish green or greenish blue but none while it appears finally, this is lighter in shades. A word of advice- however light this does not suits on every face.
