Nymphs
These beautiful, soft beings from Greek mythology are associated with different land forms or particular locations, usually related to air, seas, woods and water. Their appearance always seems a little bit darker than the once of fairies, less brightly colorful and innocent. They're based on earthy and dark natural colors, perfectly suited to their wooden or deep water surroundings. I think of them as the chameleons of nature.
clothes:
Go for natural colors Mother Earth would personally wear. From light green tones, to deep blues and caramel. Nymphs are very feminine, so anything from skirts to flattering dresses or babydoll tops are perfect. Get clothes on: https://www.boohoo.com/

makeup:
Angels have been described to have a silken face, which means finding a beautiful silver or rose gold highlighter to underline your facial features is a must. They're natural and clean beings, so soft colors that will support your natural beauty will bring out the most of your angelic look. Go for a pale color palette.

Variety in hair is essential to being a fairy. They not only wear clothes specific to them, but also follow this rule when it comes to their hair. Mostly seen wearing buns, braids and having flowers or crowns in their hair, you can also wear it open with any kind of accessories.
Humans of the sea, known to be just like the oceans themselves, gentle and harsh. When we were all young we wanted to be one, swimming with the dolphins and exploring hidden treasures. While becoming a mermaid is not as easy as on H2O, there are still creative ways to behave and dress like they'd on the surface. Young and beautiful.
clothes:
Of course mermaids are one with the water, so they're 'dressed' like their surroundings. Blue like the sea, green as the seaweed and purple like jellyfish. Go for metallic, leather or mesh materials and choose outfits like dresses, skirts or flare pants, that look like a fish tale.

makeup:
The same color scheme goes for your makeup. Metallic eye shadow and glossy lips will give you a wet, shimmering look and the fitted highlighter will make you glow. If you're shy wearing blue & purple eye makeup or lipstick, you can always go for more subtle pastel shades that won't look too heavy on you. Get: https://colourpop.com/products/wet-palette
hair:
Playful and lively is how mermaids like to live their lives, so why not style your hair this way?! Natural beach waves are an obvious must, but space buns or various braids are not unusual for these creatures as well. Just make sure to wear several accessories, like hair clips, seashells or headbands.
*mythical dark music playing* When I think of dragons, I see powerful, strong and loyal creatures who somehow charm people with their mysterious & tough appearance. They're usually described as, legendary monsters with huge bat-wings and a scaly lizard or snake barbed tail. In general dragons are a symbol of evil with beneficent powers, almost sin-like. But aren't we all sinners?
clothes:
Due to their dark, intimidating appearance you should go for similar colors. Wine red, black or olive green are a perfect fit. Leather, silk, velvet and denim materials will bring out the mysterious, alluring and hidden side of you. Get clothes on: https://www.shein.co.uk/
Keep your hair simple in a low or high ponytail, or by straightening your hair silky, which flatters any face type. If you dare you can even dye it in your favourite darkest shade.
