 Examined most beloved hues in cities such as London, Paris and Vegas

 Study commissioned by London's Heathrow Airport 

For most women their go-to beauty look is a simple slick of lipstick, but could you guess where in the world a person is from based solely on their favourite hue?

A new study called The International Lipstick Colour of The Year Report, commissioned by London's Heathrow airport, has revealed the most beloved lipstick shades from around the world.

Research looked at the most bought shades in 50 cities such as London, New York, Sydney, Barcelona, Paris, Shanghai, Hong Kong and Vegas.

The results showed that while New Yorkers buy classic red (as seen on Rita Ora and Gwen Stefani), Londoners prefer caramel nude (as seen on Kate Moss, Alexa Chung and Duchess of Cambridge) and Parisians favour a dusky rose colour (as seen on Olivia Palermo, Keira Knightley and Marion Cotillard).

It seems that fashionistas in Athens adore striking cerise pink, everyone in Shanghai likes sheer coral and in Dublin, style seekers sport bright orange red lips. 

Today, lipstick is an affordable luxury that can be found inside almost every woman's handbag.

'It's a tiny thing but it makes a massive difference to the way you look - and the way you feel,' commented beauty expert Alice Hart-Davis.

'It can change your mood and boost your morale, in five seconds flat.'

The International Lipstick Colour of The Year Report has detailed popular lip colours in 50 of world's top cites such as Barcelona, London, Paris, New York and Sydney

Following the study, Heathrow airport, which has Europe's largest range of beauty products, will be running a celebratory capsule collection of lipsticks hand-carved into mini sculptures by Manchester-based artist Hedley Wiggan.

Wiggan has picked the top lipstick shades from the survey and transformed them into iconic landmarks in four of the most popular destinations visited from Heathrow such as London's Big Ben, Paris's Eiffel Tower, Dubai's Burj Khalifa, New York's Statue of Liberty and Shanghai's eponymous Tower.

His work will be on display at Terminal 5 for the next month as part of the International Lipstick Colours of the Year showcase and will be then be made available to the public.
