Baroque
Sensuality is invading our favourite beauty brands this season. Warm, ornate, embellished baroque style is in, with a nod to the world of the 17th century: feathers, costume finery and an abundance of beautiful materials to enhance our feminine charms. It's no coincidence that baroque is back: with the current backlash against the 'thin is beautiful' dogma, everyone's after sexy curves and flesh, and the trend for voluptuous beauty is reflected in our beauty fetishes too! Baroque beauty is all extravagant colour, shine and bewitching scents.
Celebrity muse
Kylie Minogue. Since her battle with breast cancer, Kylie's battled back on all fronts, and beauty-wise she can't put a foot wrong with her elegant hair and sophisticated make-up. She always creates a buzz on the red carpet.
Get the look
Baroque ladies like to be audacious and generous with their make-up: red lips, dazzling eyes, glowing cheeks, silky powders and skin jewellery. There's no place for the understated in this night-time look, and anything goes! Slip on your costume jewellery, adorn your locks with paste jewels, and team with chic, original accessories and, of course, a bewitching scent.
Finishing touch
For a top-to-toe baroque makeover, dress up your lashes in colours, feathers, gold or other eccentricities!
Check out our selection of baroque beauties for those who dare to be ornate!
