You’ve seen it popping up everywhere – in fashion and beauty – the colour orange is HOT right now!
According to the global authority for colour forecasting and science, Pantone Universe, the 2012 colour of the year is actually called Tangerine Tango.
It’s a sophisticated yet dramatic and seductive reddish orange reminiscent of a sunset. Marrying the va-va-voom and adrenaline of red with the friendliness and warmth of yellow, Tangerine Tango is a magnetic and energetic orange.
I’ve always been a big fan of this colour for it’s versatility. It’s exotic and bold, yet sweet and friendly and never over-bearing on my face. The various shades complement all skin tones; providing a sultry pop of colour on the lips, cheeks and nails or a warm glow as an eyeshadow. I love the effect of this colour on my green eyes!
Sephora + Pantone Universe have joined forces to launch a stunning collection of beauty products in celebration of Tangerine Tango.
All of your favourite beauty brands will feature this colour in their latest collections, but Sephora + Pantone Universe make it easy for you. From lip colour, gloss, eyeshadow, liner, nail colour and blush to makeup brushes, bags, lash curlers and extensions – all your beauty essentials are available in this awesome colour!
Not sure where to start? I love this six-piece Collector’s Edition Set because it gives you a bit of everything to try.
You’ll get a créme lipstick, lip gloss, liner, eyeshadow quad, cream blush and blush duo – all for $68 (valued at $118 if you buy them all separately).
I’m already comfortable with this colour on my lips, nails and cheeks – so I really like how Sephora + Pantone Universe suggest colour combinations with the eyeshadow quad so that I can ease into using this colour on my eyes. I haven’t tried it yet, but I love the idea of Tangerine Tango and deep plum!
Join me in celebrating the 2012 colour of the year and explore the collection today! Do you love Tangerine Tango as much as I do?
