This season’s lips are a rainbow of reds, from burgundy to peach, with the most wearable a jolly crushed raspberry. From stamped-on cupids bows to romantic bitten lips, your mouth is the focus for spring. At Dolce & Gabbana every model had their own ruby shade, with Pat McGrath explaining: “It’s not about just one colour giving power to the face. It’s ultra-Dolce.” Ultra-Dolce, an aspirational way of being if ever there was one.

Nosing ahead At the Perfumarié in New York, scent is sold blind. Customers smell fragrances with the branding removed, from celebrity scents to fine perfumes. After choosing your favourite, you leave with an anonymous brown vial (perfumarie.com).
Clean and clear Wave a bitter farewell to ‘anti-ageing’ products and say hello to ‘anti-pollution’. Millennial women are less worried about wrinkles and more about the effect of the environment on their skin’s health. Hence a new market of mists, scrubs, peels and creams that live and die by their SPF. Look out for Orveda’s luxury vegan products (orveda.com).
