    Look-At-Me Eyes

    Thought molten metallic and bold, brave eyes were just for party season? Think again. The SS13 catwalks were awash with silky silver shadows and bright, block colours. Check it out.

    Look-At-Me Eyes

    Yes, we’re planning our festival make-up looks already – and this Christian Dior creation is top of our list. Pick a block colour (the brighter the better) and add some sparkle.

    Go Nude

    There’s no better time to let your natural beauty shine through than the fresh spring and summer months. With the aid of a little concealer, tinted moisturiser and powder to achieve your desired finish, you’re ready to go. Matte, velvety textures replace dewy, glowing looks for SS13.

    Grunge Is My Goal

    This year’s grunge-inspired looks were all about shading on the lower lash line. From pretty subtle bronze to bold and broken blacks, find your comfort zone and go grunge.

    Add an extra grungy edge by letting your mascara clump together a little (basically the opposite of what you usually try and do) and then smudge your kohl liner along the lower lash line only.
