How to Apply Shimmer Cubes.

Make-up artist: Lan Nguyen (Head Make-up Artist at Vauxhall Fashion Scout)

Model: Mari @ Premier

MAKE A STATEMENT WITH AUTUMN’S BLUE TWIST ON THE SMOKY EYE

To get the look trace Carbon Eye Definer in Blue along the full length of the upper and lower lash line, softening the edges with an Eyeshadow Blender Brush. Smooth the dark blue shade from the 20 Blue Moon Shimmer Cube Palette all over the eyelid and underneath the lower lashes. Smooth the silver shade along the brow bone, under the arch of the brow and right into the inner corner of the eye. Now take Metallic Eye Definer pencil in 10 Brilliant Blue and line the upper lash line and along the lower water line. Apply two coats of Super Volume Mascara in Black to top and bottom lashes. Finish off with a coat of Super Volume Mascara in Cobalt on the outer corner of the top and bottom lashes.

LOVE CHOCOLATE, LOVE YOURSELF

Indulging ourselves with chocolate eating might not be that good for the tummy. But this guiltless chocolate indulging while showering, is one of the best thing to do for yourself.

The Body Shop launched Chocomania range this year and one of them is this. Chocomania Soap. Shaped like a heart with little beads inside which actually are exfoliating coconut shell. When used, it produced quite a rich lather with its’ creamy textured, so it didn’t leave my skin squeaky dry. It left a soft sweet chocolatey scent and the beads are gently exfoliating, so it did make my hands and body felt soft afterwards.

It is the closest thing you can have if you fancy a chocolate bath, really.

BEAUTY WITH HEART IN ACTION: ORGANIC ALCOHOL

The organic alcohol we use in our new Scents of the World range comes from sugarcane that’s organically grown in Ecuador.

FIND YOUR PERFECT FOUNDATION

If you’ve had trouble choosing the right foundation, or are unsure the best way to apply, then Lan’s next tip is for you…

Choosing the right foundation :
1. Test dark and light foundation colours nearest to your complexion at the side of your jawline
2. Take a look in natural daylight as this will help show if you need to use a lighter or darker shade

Applying the perfect base:
1. Apply foundation with a brush to help give a flawless finish
2. Always brush away from the nose towards the hair line
3. Layer and build up to the desired coverage you want rather than coating the bush heavily with product in one go

Find the perfect foundation for you.
