Try the “Fifty Shades of Pink” trend
The perfect choice for a girl’s girl like you, this season’s prettiest beauty look is all about fifty shades of pink. Whether it’s dusty rose or sunset salmon swept across lids and lips, this feminine yet daring approach to makeup is surprisingly easy to nail: pair with brushed brows for a natural, polished feel and go sans eyeliner.
Try the “Larger than Life Lids” trend
For the trailblazer who’s not afraid to make a rebellious move against “no makeup, makeup”, the paint box eye trend has your name all over it. Pick an eyeshadow colour that makes a major statement – cue yellow, red, mint – and sweep generously over lids. For the extra brave, colour block with two eyeshadow hues together. Go on, we double dare you.
Try the “After Party Mascara” trend
Referencing Twiggy, Diana Ross and Jean Shrimpton, the haphazard placement of clumpy blacker mascara is the lazy girl’s path to perfectly on-trend - and perfectly imperfect - makeup. To get the look, after prepping your eyes with a generous slick of primer and mascara, use tweezers to gently nudge small clusters of lashes together into star points. For a modern take, pair with full coverage foundation, a dusting of highlighter and worn-in lip stain.
