Red lipstick- It is a constant classic, of course, but never have makeup artists been so united on the shade front as they are this season. Not just for special occasions, red lipstick has filtered down into our day-to-day. Whether you want to dress up a casual look at the weekend, or make that shift from day to night, a slick of red lipstick can be a real game-changer as long as it is applied with utter precision. Mac lip colors are something you can never go wrong with.

Flushed Pink Cheeks This season, push your contouring kit to the side. Instead, whip out your blush brush and a light pink cheek color, because it’s all about adding a pop of pink to the apples of your cheeks. The natural flush covered the runways at some of the best shows so you can be assured it’s a thing. Also for the newbies, suck your cheeks in while applying blush to get the desired effect! Choose from diverse brands from all over the world that cover all price ranges at Sephora.

Strobing was massive backstage at fashion week this season and it’s the secret behind models looking like ethereal angels. Strobing is actually pretty simple and involves only creamy, pearly, metallic shades to highlight and illuminate the skin so it’s perfect for winter and fair skin will rejoice at not having to resort to the bronzer. You just use the different tones along your brow bones, cheekbones, down your nose and dotted in your cupids bow. Voila, you have yourself a red carpet look! Stop by at Sephora and get a tutorial while choosing highlighters perfectly suited to your skin tone.

Dramatic Eyes– This season, in fact, the upper eyelid becomes the protagonist, transforming into a canvas on which we can try all the colors of the palette, from black for dark souls to white and super sophisticated blue. The rule? Don’t hold back! The color invades the eyebrows reaching the lower eyelid.  From glitter eye shadow to essential palettes, get them all at Bobbi Brown.

False Eyelashes– Gone are the days when false eyelashes were only worn for fancy dress parties. When mascara doesn’t give you the desired look, go all out with this ultra-feminine, modern and whimsical top beauty trend that redefines the meaning of batting your eyelashes. Don’t blink and miss out on this one! If you’re wondering how to make this look yours, make a pit stop at Sephora on your next visit to Select CITYWALK.
