CHILLED PINK
Keep things cool and pared-back this season, as seen at Zimmermann, right, with glossy and glass-like “mannequin” skin. Groomed brows and an ice-pink cheek colour set the tone – see Dior and Carolina Herrera for inspiration.
How to wear it: Choose a cool shade of blush and wear it higher up on the cheekbones than usual, for a natural lifting effect. For inspiration, check out The Big Blush Revolution Has Begun – Enter Your Chic Cheek Era.

SLEEK HAIR
Try a side parting for an instant, commitment free change. Pair with a bun, accessorised with a bow, to nail two trends in one go.
How to wear it: The mood is sleek, smooth and assured: see Tory Burch, Prabal Gurung and Mugler for inspiration. Invest in a Smooth Stick to keep strays at bay and Raven’s strengthboosting Hair Tonic (or a light, nongreasy hair oil) for added shine and condition.

A SHARP LINE
Take inspiration from the Maria Callas look at Erdem and play with graphic eyeliner – pair an elongated wing with the blackest mascara and full brows.
How to wear it: Emphasise a striking streak of inky liquid liner with fresh and glowing skin and lips. See: The Best Liquid Eyeliners For Every Budget.

POWER RED
Matte red statement lips steal the show. Take inspiration from Richard Quinn, Moschino and Martine Serre catwalks, where hot, full-pigment red lips were the focus.
How to wear it: Anyone can wear red lipstick; if in doubt, blend your hot red with a lip balm for a softer finish. Remember to draw a precise line with lip liner. When wearing a red lipstick, dial down your blush and eye make-up.
