The Power of Pink

National Breast Cancer Awareness Month makes a powerful pink statement in October but there is power in pink all year round.  As the sweet side of red, pink is the color of love of oneself. Own the power of your health and add some pink in the bathroom as reminders for regular self-exams and mammograms.

• emit some Feng shui energy with a bowl of pink quartz crystals on the vanity

• light a pink rose-scented candle for calming aromatherapy

• pamper yourself with a pink-inspired spa bath with pink rose petals, hair turbine, eye mask, Himalayan body salts, and loofah sponge

• slip on your fuzzy pink robe and slippers and snuggle up with a good book afterward

Pink is such a flexible choice to mix and match with different styles and color schemes. Here are some ideas:

• pair pink with cream, gray, and black for a sophisticated look

• combine pink with red, orange, and green to liven up a room

• blend pink with lilac and mauve for romance and harmony
