Orange on the Runway

Orange isn’t just for party and festival time, it had a high fashion moment on the catwalks this season, too, signaling its arrival as a key trend for the season. At NYFW Spring/Summer 2025, brands like PH5 showcased models with orange or berry-colored blush swept across the nose for a subtle, sun-kissed effect. This runway-inspired flush is perfect for summer, offering a casual yet editorial edge. The trend also fits with the season’s emphasis on healthy, glowing skin (my signature!) and minimal, effortless beauty. While other shows focused on barely-there blush or glassy skin, orange stands out for its warmth and versatility, proving it’s not just for statement lips.

How to Wear Juicy Orange Makeup

LIPS

Orange lipstick is the ultimate summer statement. For a bold, high-impact look, opt for a matte or glossy finish in shades like tangerine or bright coral. Apply with precision, using a lip liner to define and extend wear. For everyday, try blending orange with pink for a soft coral effect, or use a sheer gloss for a subtle pop of colour. Orange lips pair best with neutral eyes and a sun-kissed blush.

EYES

Orange eyeshadow is surprisingly wearable, especially when applied with a light hand. For a fashion-forward look, blend a light peach all over the lid, deepen the crease with a medium orange, and add a touch of rust at the outer corner. Keep eyeliner and mascara soft, brown or burgundy liner looks gorgeous with orange tones.

CHEEKS

Orange blush is a youthful take on a healthy, summer-ready complexion. Apply a cream coral blush to the apples of your cheeks and blend upward for a natural flush. For a runway-inspired look, sweep the blush across the bridge of your nose for a statement sun-kissed effect.
