Ashish went all out with sequins around the eyes, and lips which looked like they’d been coated in Vaseline and plunged into a pot of glitter. Elsewhere, Michael Kors and Stella Jean championed a more subtle, bronze smoky eye.
Rich coppers, yellow and rose gold pigments all made appearances which means, thankfully, there’s something for every skin tone. From eye shadows to highlighters and nail polishes, you can embrace the trend in so many ways.
There’s been so much innovation to ensure easy wearability, too. Beauty products have been formulated to create maximum impact with minimum effort, with things like glosses and gel powders being able to be used across lips, eyes and cheeks to add glow, shimmer and shine.
