What the colour shares in common with classic crimson: compatibility with all skin tones, the ability to help to give the appearance of a brighter complexion, and the perk of being a one-step solution to looking feminine and instantly dressed up (go on, skip the eye makeup). What it doesn’t: a sense of youthfulness and fun whether you go shocking Schiaparelli pink like on the runways of Chalayan, or a deep fuchsia as seen at Chanel (above). Just make sure it’s saturated. – SK
