Spring Beauty Trend - Milan’s Keen For Peachy Eye Shadow

If the Spring 2010 runways are any indication, Milan is feeling peachy.

Over the weekend, tangerine shadow was used at no less than five shows in the Italian fashion capital - Pucci, Dolce & Gabbana, Gucci, Marni and Fendi.

Now, you'd think this collective peachy keen-ness would throw us into a sugar coma. But the shade's popularity only highlighted its diversity: Salmon lids were paired with bright red lips at Dolce & Gabbana (top, left), a wine-stained pout and hippie headbands at Marni (top, right), glam, slicked back locks at Gucci (bottom, left), pretty bronzed cheeks at Pucci (bottom, right) and lots of bronze liner at Fendi.

Unlike another spring trend, peach is universally flattering; it works like a neutral to subtly brighten both skin tone and eye color. "Peach on the eyes is very flattering on everyone; it brings out all eye colors, from brown to blue to green," makeup artist Charlotte Willer told us backstage at Alexandre Herchcovitch.
Peach lids look glam at Gucci, and naturally pretty at Pucci.
