As die - hard pink and coral toned lippy lovers, we admit that crossing over to the dark side for this season was a little bit scary – but now we have, it’ll be hard to go back!

The key to this trend is to try out different shades to find the right one for your skin tone – and don’t be daunted by darker, more pigmented shades. They are surprisingly easy to wear – we promise!

Lips should be in tip top condition before applying your chosen plum tone, as the darker shades can sometime worsen the appearance of chapped or dry skin, so apply a little balm before hand to keep them super soft. When it comes to the rest of your look, with such a statement lip colour, heavy eye make up is a no no – opt for a natural looking brown shadow or keep it totally nude. Once your base and pout are prepped, slick on your shade and work it girls!

From lipsticks to glosses – there’s plenty of ways to try the trend!

Topshop £8

This bold lipstick has a fuchsia hint to it – making it a little more wearable – blot with tissue to soften or layer up for a vibrant finish.

The Body Shop £7

Get all the colour without losing any shine – this squeezy gloss is an easy way to get a touch of plum on - the - go.

Rimmel £5.99

A tint is a more subtle way to wear lip colour – simply trace along lips – for a hint of purple that lasts for hours.
