L’Oréal Colour Trophy 2022

We’re rapt that awards are back with live shows and finals and no less of a standard than before the Pandemic. The L’Oréal Colour Trophy 2022 grand final proved a feast for the eyes and nourishment for the heart with a fantastic display of talent in the finalists line up, and of course in the evening’s shows.
