This season’s make-up is chic, flattering and even better anti-ageing. Here’s how to make them work for you!
Face Sculpting
Shading and highlighting is not only very now, it also brings out your cheek bones, making your face look more defined and disguises sagging. Forget going under the knife!
Tricks…
“Apply a matt blusher around 2 shades darker than your skin to the hollows of your cheeks with a soft contour brush” says Sara Wellman from Bellissima Exclusive Limited. “Then apply a creamy highlighter with a soft pearl finish to the highest part of the cheek bone- this will catch the light and give the illusion of higher, more lifted cheeks. Finish with a dab of pink or peach blush, try Bare Escentuals Laughter on the apple of the cheek”.
Tip
Make sure you blend the powder well to avoid any stripes- soften the edges with a clean make up sponge if needed.
Defined Brows
The fastest way to take off the years! Groom those brows! “A well arched tidy eyebrow gives a mini face lift effect” Sara goes on to say.
Tricks
If you haven’t been near a pair of tweezers for a while, book in for a tidy up at your local salon. They will help poorly shaped brows to look their best again. At home, why not try Bare Escentuals Brow Minerals to lightly shade and fill in the gaps. This looks far more natural than a harsh pencil.
Tip
Spritz a little hair spray onto your brush – it helps hold brows in place.
