To Turn Up

This is your licence to go all-out. To get that dramatic look, toy with unusual eyeshadow colours and applications, thick, painted-on eyebrows, and even extreme tinted lip colour treatments.

On A Date

Wanna look sexy AF? Then you can’t be more and you can’t be less – just enough. Read: red lipstick, a smokey eye, a flawlessly covered face (foundation plus concealer!), highlighter and a bit of blush. Perfume encouraged.

To A Wedding

This is a special event, so as a guest your key words are ‘subtle’ and ‘low-key’. Don’t go wild and try to out-shine the bride now. We’re talking make-up that’s mid-professional and sexy. A bit of foundation (BB cream works well too), blush, a little bronzer and some smoky eyeshadow – but keep it tame.
