Amanda Seyfried launches the berry-strained pout trend
If you saw the pictures of Amanda Seyfried posing outside the Miu Miu catwalk show earlier this month, you'll have spotted a fast-emerging makeup trend for autumn: berry shades.
The actress looked edgy and cool with her mulberry hued pout, which contrasted magnificently with her red trouser power suit.
Keeping her eyes and the rest of her makeup fairly neutral, Amanda's lipstick really made an impact.
You can get the same strong look by layering on Sleek MakeUP's True Colour Lipstick in the damson-coloured Mulberry, ensuring it all stays on your lips with Lip Pencil in Blackberry. Blot the lipstick once with a tissue and then reapply to make sure the colour holds fast.
To get more information about the biggest autumn/winter trends in makeup, we turned to beauty expert Zara Stone Rabinowicz.
She explained that the key looks for the upcoming season draw heavily on the 1980s, with heavy kohl-rimmed eyes and matte lips a great look.
"The Marc Jacobs AW 2012 show [went for] a Twiggy-inspired aesthetic, with geometric angles and clever blush contouring," she noted.
"For a more wearable look consider using grey eye shadow for lining the eyes and using eyeliner for an added feline flick. Barely there makeup is always popular - think flawless and barely noticeable, and achieve this by using primer both on the face, lids and lips for an overall peachy complexion that suggests youth."
You can recreate this look with Sleek MakeUP's new limited edition Supreme i-Divine eye shadow palette, which has been created in conjunction with prestigious fashion house PPQ. Wash the pale grey shade over your lid first, then with an angled brush apply the darker grey one into the crease.
Next, draw a cat-like flick with Dip It Eyeliner and finish with a hint of Blush in Rose Gold.
