What’s Chinese New Year without a pop of red and a little bling? Planning the perfect looks for the occasion can be fun but also tiring. So don’t worry, Tatler's got you covered with plenty of fresh inspiration and go-to beauty trends this festive season. 

This year, many are gravitating towards a colour palette akin to the Water Rabbit's gentle and playful temperament. Think neutral tones with a hint of colour, from lightly flushed cheeks to subtle pink-peach lips. This soft, glowy look goes perfectly with the popular floral pattern that has been showing up in fashion collections by local and international designers. Another easy look is the classic red lip and cheongsam combo.

However, there's nothing wrong with stepping out of your comfort zone this Chinese New Year. Spice up your beauty look with bold colours and holographic effects to channel your inner Crazy Rich Asian.
