New - Topshop Dark Side of Nude

The Topshop F/W 2012 Capsule Collection may be called Dark Side of Nude, but it's on the bright side of goth. It's all about high pigment shades and shimmer. The powder shadows have a metallic sheen and can be used wet to intensify the color. The tone on tone diamond pattern on the pack brings a serious edge to the collection, while the unfinished lines are consistent with Topshop's norm.
