The latest trend is about matching your make up to go with your fashion accessories.
How? Find out from
Coccinelle, the Italian brand of bags and accessories, and Shiseido, the mega name in cosmetics from Japan, who are getting together and organising three exclusive events to celebrate the most feminine and summery of all colours:
pink. The occasion is the launch of
A Flash of Pink! the collection for summer by Coccinelle. Handbags, clutches and minibags in an explosion of every shade and tone of pink: be it pastel, neon, fuchsia or lilac. It’s fresh, spontaneous, creative and sexy: perfect for any look, whether you're heading out to the beach, meeting up for cocktails or off to the disco. And Shiseido is also putting the accent on pink for summer 2012:
Shimmering Rouge for 3D lips in sheer and bright colours and easy eye make up with its
Shimmering Cream Eye Color, water-resistant cream eye shadow. Cheeks are gently enhanced with
Luminizing Satin Face Color powder blusher. Some of the most popular bloggers of the moment will be attending the three
pink cocktails at Coccinelle’s boutiques in Milan’s Via Manzoni, Via Spinetti at Forte dei Marmi and Taormina in Corso Umberto, becoming improvised “personal shoppers” to help customers find out about the cult handbags in the summer collection.

There will also be a Shiseido make-up artist in store who will be creating make-up looks in a flash using a palette of just pinks to match your favourite accessory. And a photographer will be on hand to immortalise it all. The pictures will be posted on the Coccinelle and Shiseido Facebook pages and those that get the most clicks will receive an exclusive gift. During both evenings, each pink addict’s purchase will be rewarded with a Coccinelle pink gift and a Shiseido make up sample lipstick.
