Two great tips..



Whenever I get a captive audience with a makeup artist I ALWAYS ask for their recommendations.  Here are two key additions to the no make-up make up bag...

Phillosophy exfoliator with vitamin C to really supercharge your face.  Then Revlon skinlights, 2 shades lighter than your skin tone for under the eyes.  Perfect Skin. Done!

Capsule make up bag

Imagine having your makeup down to just 5 items... we've done it... so can you.  Time to let go of the suitcase and get down to basics!

1.  Use a face primer to create a beautiful glowing complexion. 
2.  Take a good quality concealer, slightly lighter than your natural colour and mix with a small bead of primer and apply under eyes, around the nose and chin. 
3.  Using a fine brush take some water and wet a small amount of dark eyeshadow.  Use this to line the eyes.
4.  With a dry eyeshadow brush apply a delicate layer of eyeshadow in the crease of the eye and blend
5.  Use blush on the apples of the checks and a dusting on the eyelids to bring colour into the eyes.
6.  Use a mixture of the eyeshadow and blush for contouring of the checks, nose and jawline is neccessary
7.  Finish with mascara on the lashes
