Equal parts pink, orange, and peach —coral brings warmth and energy to every look, making it the quintessential shade of summer.

BEAUTY OBSESSION: CORAL MAKEUP

Discover our Coral Crush collection and learn how to incorporate coral into your looks.

Coral, that vibrant shade between pink and orange, is a key feature of summer makeup. Fresh, luminous, and flattering, it can transform a look in an instant. But is it a universal colour? Here’s everything you need to know to embrace (or avoid) coral makeup.

Coral evokes warmth, joy, and energy. It’s perfect for:

Brightening the complexion: especially in summer, it gives it an instant healthy glow.

Adding freshness: on the lips or cheeks, it helps revitalizes the face.

Adapting to multiple styles: from a natural look to more daring makeup.

Can Everyone Pull Off Coral?

Good news: almost everyone can wear coral, as long as you pick the right shade. 

Light Complexions:

Opt for pink or pastel corals, which complement your skin tone.

Avoid corals that are too orange, as they can appear too bright.

Medium Complexions:

Classic coral shades (neither too pink nor too orange) are perfect.

They enhance the complexion without creating too much contrast.

Dark Complexions:

Deep orange corals are super flattering.

They add light and contrast without looking artificial.

Who should avoid coral (or use it with caution)? 

Coral can be tricky in some cases:

Very pink skin or skin prone to redness: Coral can accentuate redness. Opt for more neutral or cool tones.

Very cool tones: Warm coral can create too strong a contrast. Try corals that lean toward pink or raspberry. 

Very colourful outfits: Be careful not to overload the look. Coral goes best with neutral or complementary colours.

How Can You Incorporate Coral Into Your Routine? 

On the Lips:

A coral lipstick is ideal for a fresh, summery look.

Choose a glossy texture for a natural effect, or matte for more intensity.

On the Cheeks:

A coral blush gives an instant healthy glow.

Apply it lightly to avoid a “sunburnt” effect.

On the Eyes:

More daring, coral eyeshadow can look stunning on hazel or green eyes.

Combine it with golden or brown tones for a harmonious look.

Coral is a cheerful and versatile colour, but like any shade, it requires a little adjustment depending on your skin tone and style. The key? Test, adjust, and have fun!
