Every December, Pantone releases their colour predictions for the forthcoming year. As a beauty addict, I eagerly await their announcement to see what shade will be reigning my makeup kit for the next 365 days. Luckily, 2019’s hue seems right up my alley!

As an ode to our current digital and social lives, Pantone has declared ‘Living Coral’ to be the shade of 2019. The vibrant pinkish-orange hue exudes lightheartedness and optimism, whilst still being a warm and nurturing colour. Plus, the shade is super flattering on all skin tones and is available in a ton of makeup products. If you would like to start working with this trendy shade, here are some products that you can try:

1. Make Up For Ever HD Blush In ‘410 Coral’

This punchy coral blush is bound to brighten up even the sallowest of complexions. With its silky and weightless consistency, this rouge promises to blend in seamlessly to deliver a soft, flushed effect.
