A Look Ahead

Fall is already on my mind. With an eye on things to come, the way ahead seems paved in GOLD.

Lead by makeup maven Peter Philips, new Creative Director for Makeup at Chanel, his debut collection is centred around lovely gilded touches for all. With all the recent hits coming from the house of Chanel (how many people did you know that wore super-dark nailpolish? neon brights?), gold just might be the new black.

Gold is very easy to integrate into your makeup routine and can be so flattering on any skin tone. Why not try a pale gold highlight on cheekbones or browbones? Maybe a soft gold shadow with lots of lush black mascara. Perhaps a pretty lipstick with a gold pearl. Think of the possibilities!
