As for the brave souls - don’t worry - there’s enough colour, embellishments and graphic liner looks to keep you ticking over. Take a look…
Red Lips
The classic red lip continues into spring with Michael Kors, Saint Laurent and Gucci showcasing crimson lips on the catwalk. Red lips were typically paired with muted shades and monochromatic eyes for a contrasting look.
