There’s no doubt that rose gold was the colour of 2016. And when it comes to beauty products, we are in the midst of a serious rose gold rush. The oh-so-pretty variations of lipstick, blush and even nail varnish can be found anywhere now, but happily, it’s not all about style?over substance – some hit the mark in equal measure. And from illuminating highlighters to blushed metallics,?here’s our pick of what should have a firm spot in your makeup bag:
Urban Decay NAKED3 Eyeshadow Palette, €47
With 12 neutral eyeshadow shades, from light, shimmering pinks, to deep glittering black shades, this is the ultimate palette for a?rose-hued beauty look. The shade combination is versatile, the colour payoff is great and you can go from day-to-night seamlessly?with a stroke of your eyeshadow?brush.
Tom Ford Orchid Soleil?Eau de Parfum, from €99
With notes of black orchid, pink peppercorn, vanilla, chestnut cream and tuberose (among others), this stunning fragrance with its rose-hued packaging will chase those winter blues away.
NARS Hardwired Eyeshadow in Outer Limits, €30
Yes, this gorgeous highly-pigmented shade screams party season, but once you start to work it into your beauty look, you’ll see just how well the colour blends out for something more low-key too.
