On the Fall-Winter 2025-2026 runway during Paris Fashion Week, the popstar-turned-designer-turned-business powerhouse’s penchant for “exploring the beautiful tension between the ritualistic and the impulsive,” was in full effect. The vibe extended to beauty, as makeup artist Lucia Pica sought to reflect this duality through a “refined rebellion,” which she brought to life via a shot of unexpected color on the eyes.

To offset the red on lashes, lids were swept with a single hue, the molten bronze from the brand’s Eye Wardrobe Bordeaux palette and brows were softened in tone to a cool beige thanks to a swipe of FeatherFix Brow Gel in Blonde and skin was simply perfected with a dab or two of The Concealer Pen with TCF8 only where needed. To give the rest of the face a wash of bronze synonymous with Beckham’s signature look, Pica kept skin clean with touches of luminosity along cheekbones by tapping on the light-reflecting pigments in The Cell Rejuvenating Illuminator in Pearlescent and Golden. Lips were polished with a subtle swipe of Posh Balm in Glacé.

Pica actually set the trend of extending red from the lips and nails to eyes, exploring shades of crimson, brick, and deep russet in one of her inaugural — and most memorable — moments with a past partner. In 2016, the makeup legend, who was makeup creation director for Chanel at the time, famously cooked up Le Rouge Collection No.1 for the French fashion house, thus catapulting red makeup into the zeitgeist. That very collection just happened to be one of this writer’s all time favorites. Leave it to Victoria Beckham, Queen of Reinvention, to redefine the red makeup trend.
