3 Ways to wear pink

Fresh, pretty and fun! Yup, rose-tinted hues can cure those pre-winter blues.

So how do you wear this makeup trend without looking like a clown? “People like to categorise ‘pink’ as girlie,” says makeup pro Tom Pechuex. “But over the last season we’ve shown that it can be pretty or strong, depending on how you use it.”  And we’ve found a nifty trick to trying the trend! Instead of investing in new pink makeup, all you need is one petal pink lipstick…

On cheeks

Dab a pink, creamy lipstick onto the apples of your cheeks and blend. Voila! A slightly flushed and subtle glow.

On eyes

Take your cue from models at the Carolina Herrera show and sweep a pink lipstick over your moving lid (don’t take it past the crease). The result? A subtle pop of colour in a modern finish.

On lips

Apply a pink lippy in the centre of your lips, and then pat it down for a soft, feminin finish.
