Perfectly summing up the shade of the year (not even season!) Rita's mua Kathy Jeung paired lilac eyes with flawless skin, a divine glow and pale pastel pink lips. Impeccable. The products used are listed on Kathy's Instagram.
So why is lilac so hot right now? It's been simmering for a couple of years, with hints of lilac in fashion and make up. And now there's a full on explosion with Radiant Orchid named the colour of 2014 by Pantone.
It's also been seen on a number of spring summer 2014 catwalks including Peter Pilotto and Holly Fulton. And has been on a number of beautiful faces including Emily Blunt and Georgia May Jagger.
As well as a perfect lilac eyeshadow in my Coastal Scents palette, I have three fab lipsticks in this colour family, from left to right in pic below:
Stargazer 115- a cool matte
Mac Viva Glam Nicki 2 amplified- a warm, pinkier shade and my favourite if the three
Kaoir Racquel- a deeper blue toned shade, closer to Georgia's below
So take your cue from Rita and use on the eyes, or from Nicki and pop on the lips- or if you're not feeling brave enough for that then wear on your nails or toenails. Enjoy experimenting my lilac lovelies!
