Fashion designers are already debuting their collections for spring-summer 2013, but it was last spring's autumn-winter shows that are defining this season's make-up trends.

One of the most talked-about looks was the bold lip - whether bright red at Rochas, burgundy at Gucci or blackened at Bottega Veneta.

For our cover shoot, make-up artist Megumi Sekine introduced on-trend but still wearable lip looks with the latest products from Shiseido, M.A.C, Estée Lauder and more - captured by photographer Dan Pak and styled by Jolene Lin.

"I know there are a lot of women who are not used to wearing bold colours and dark red lipstick, but you can use different techniques to create different textures," Sekine says.

"For instance, if you use your fingertip and dab into the lips, it creates a tinted colour that is more wearable."
