Red is at the heart of Chanel’s Spring/Summer 2023 Makeup Collection. And the playful hue is highlighted in the four-pan eyeshadow palette that can be transformed into a simple, wearable look or an attention-grabbing evening ensemble. Complement it with the rouge-coloured mascara to give your lashes volume, length, curl and definition. 

The Dior Addict lipstick is loved for its high-shine and moisturising formula consisting of 90 per cent natural ingredients and jasmine floral wax. As part of the latest drop, the new Dior 8 brick red shade pays homage to the brand’s trendy and lucky number. Also in the collection are three new limited-edition collectable cases – Brick Cannage, Rose Montaigne and White Canvas – inspired by Dior’s fashion designs.

Lady Gaga’s latest blush drop from Haus Labs received much fanfare for its pigmentation and ease of blending. The cruelty-free and vegan formula is infused with nourishing ingredients such as fermented arnica, hydraberry, vitamins C and E, plant squalane and shea butter.

Tom Ford is here to throw its newest lip into the mix of matte liquid lipsticks that feel comfortable and lightweight. Available in a variety of bold red and everyday neutrals, the transfer-resistant shades offer a high-impact colour as black rose extract nourishes your lips. 

Look to these Mac Cosmetics creations for another lightweight, comfortable liquid lip option. The liquid lip employs the Pigment Lock technology to leave a veil of pigmented, matte colour that is kiss-, transfer- and waterproof. 

This year is shaping up to be the year of blush. Work your creative magic with various saturated colours in Blend Bunny Cosmetics’ blush palette. The pigmented colours can be mixed and swept across your face and eyes, while certain shades can also be worn on the lips. 

Tarte recently introduced the statement red Cherry shade to its Blush Tape liquid blush line. The creamy, blendable formula adds a wash of radiant glow and colour to the cheeks. Meanwhile, ingredients from porcelain flowers to liquorice roots care for the skin underneath. 

Lip oils are another favourite this year as the glossy lip trend continues to reign supreme. Merit Cosmetics’ lip oil contains shea butter, grapeseed, rosehip and jojoba oils to protect, soften and nourish, as the formula offers a high-shine finish with a kiss of colour.
