Shay Mitchell just gave your favourite heavy metal a disco twist.
Okay, so technically rose gold isn't a heavy metal element—it's a mixture of copper and gold—but the hue flatters every skin tone, whether you choose to wear it as jewellery or in your makeup. At the Anna Sui New York Fashion Week show, Mitchell turned up the intensity of the typically delicate tone, and we're obsessed with how it added to the overall '70s vibe thrown by her buoyant curls, bronzy skin, and nude lip.

To get a similar colour payoff to Mitchell's metallic eye, either layer a cream shadow with your favourite powder, or use a powder option you can apply wet. Mixing a powder eyeshadow with either water or a liquid mixing medium can help create an intense molten-metal finish.
MAC Eyeshadow in Expensive Pink, £13.50
Now, this is the most heavenly combo of peachy, pinky rose and champagne gold. It looks good on practically everyone, and transforms into a molten dream when applied with a finger or damp brush.
Available at Debenhams | £13.50
Over your favourite eyeshadow primer, use a flat brush to press the mixture onto your lids, then use a blending brush dipped into a translucent powder to diffuse the colour into your skin. Pick up the wet mixture with a liner brush to continue blending the colour underneath your lower lash line, and finish with a few pumps of the lash curler and generous amounts of mascara. Though the Studio 54 ringlets are totally optional, they certainly won't hurt.
