Dark berry lips and lid-to-brow pastel blue eyeshadow were 90s staples the world was, quite frankly, pleased to see banished from beauty counters. However, Max Mara presented a fresh update on the challenging duo with surprising results. The dark blue liner that once accompanied bright eye shadow has gone and the colour is now a sheer, delicate wash rather than an overpowering smear. Lips are well-defined but without a tell-tale darker liner and are perfectly matte.

The collection may have been inspired by spy thrillers, including our beloved Killing Eve, but when we saw those 90s colours teamed with double plaits and a vest, It was Tomb Raider’s Lara Croft, rather than Villanelle, who sprang to mind.
