Gold standard

What’s more enchanting than making yourself shimmer all over? There is a celebratory feel to make-up as we near the end of the pandemic – lots of shine, colour, and embellishment. Let your skin dance with a sprinkling of shimmer across the eyes, cheek, and lips to create a multi-dimensional glow.

Instantly iconic

A timeless yet modern look that is recognisably Chanel. Create this ultimate power pout with Chanel’s ultra-saturated liquid lipstick in Daring Red. To ensure ultimate longevity, apply the base coat to clean, makeup-free lips with the built-in wand applicator. Allow a moment to dry, and then use the brush applicator to apply the top coat for a high-shine result and all-day comfort.

Blush crush

Monochromatic looks are trending with a singular colour incorporated through lips, cheeks, and eyes. Bobbi Brown’s Crushed Creamy Color for Cheeks and Lips is the perfect multi-tasking cream product that you can simply dap, swipe or tap across your key features for a playful and whimsical end result.

Dancefloor darling

These bold pops of colour with a dramatic Sedgewick-esque liner mean you’re bringing Studio 54 into 2022 in all the right ways. M.A.C’s Dazzleshadow Liquid eyeshadow in Panthertized has sultry jewel tones for a glimpse of glam on your next night out. This has an ultra-shiny liquid finish, meaning the eyeshadow glides across lids for a wash of brilliant colour that keeps its splendour.
