color contrast makeup trend

This season is all about bold contrast—the combination of two unexpected colours to create a show-stopping statement makeup look. Choose your favourite colour combination, then learn how to make the colour contrast makeup trend yours with our easy tips.

Colorful & Confident

Crushed Orange Against Blue Hues

This is the ultimate bold colour contrast makeup—light blue on the inner rim of the eyeline with Smoke & Brighten Kajal Eyeliner in Marine combined with a full, bold coral lipstick and liner. We love Pure Color Lipstick in 330 Impassioned and Double Wear Lip Liner in 13 Coral.  

WEAR IT YOUR WAY:
For a bolder look, apply the dark brown shade of the Pure Color Envy Luxe Eyeshadow Quad in 04 Desert Dunes into the crease using a blending brush.

For a more subtle look, apply Smoke & Brighten Kajal Eyeliner in Marine only to the top lashline.

Bold & Jewel-Toned

Magenta Meets Emerald Green

Have you heard? Magenta is the colour of the year, and we’ve got the perfect way to wear it with Pure Color Lipstick in 888 Power Kiss and Double Wear 24H Stay-in-Place Lip Liner in 16 Plum. Pair it with a shocking splash of our Double Wear Eye Pencil in 08 Emerald Volt for a jewel-toned look that’s subtle enough to be wearable. 

WEAR IT YOUR WAY:
For a bolder look, apply the dark brown shade of Pure Color Envy Luxe Eyeshadow Quad in 04 Desert Dunes into and over the crease using a blending brush.

For a more subtle look, apply Double Wear Eye Pencil in 08 Emerald Volt just along the lashline.

Glamorous & Glowing

Gilded Eyes with a Punch Of Purple

Create an elegant statement look that pairs shimmering golden eyes with luxurious, royal purple lips. Use Pure Color Envy Luxe Eyeshadow Quad in 08 Wild Earth with Double Wear 24H Waterproof Gel Eye Pencil in 11 Bronze, then apply Pure Color Lipstick in 616 Enigma.

WEAR IT YOUR WAY:
For a bolder look, use Double Wear 24H Waterproof Gel Eye Pencil in 01 Onyx to add a slight wing at the outer lashline. 

For a more subtle look, apply  Pure Color Lipstick in 616 Enigma using your finger for a soft flushed lip.
