LATTE MAKEUP GOES LUXE WITH THE COUTURE COPPER TREND

November 20, 2023 by Cat Quinn

If Latte Makeup got dressed up for a party, it would be the Couture Copper trend. Marked by decadent bronze metallic eyeshadow and warm-toned lipstick, this sophisticated look is directly inspired by high fashion. After seasons of Y2K-inspired chromes and silvers, the recent runways were dripping in warm-toned gold and bronze accents.

“Neutral shades in makeup are taking a decadent twist of late with sumptuous coppery chrome washes on eyes, cheeks and even lips,” says Terry Barber, M·A·C Creative Director of Makeup Artistry. “It creates a more dressed up glamour – reminiscent of Baroque and the 70s – yet translated into modern, glowing beauty. Think polished and bronzed but with an added touch of Studio 54.”

If you don’t want to splurge on an oversized pendant or slinky designer belt, bronze makeup is the quickest way to elevate an outfit for evening. Ditch refined and perfect shapes, because these metallics are all about raw luxury. Sweep on your favourite bronze shadow, tap metallic pigment onto the centre your lips and finish with a swirl of copper-toned blush everywhere the light hits. More is more is more.
