Liner Notes

The best of Monday’s looks were all super strong and womanly.

Donna Karan had that same beachy face from Lacoste, but placed special emphasis on the eyes by using a white pencil to create a little flick. The one I use is the Giorgio Armani ‘Smooth Silk Eye Pencil’ although you can use any to get this look. Just make sure you try it on your hand before you purchase it, just to check that it has staying power. Also, use that Strobe Cream down the neck, on the collarbones, shoulders and chest for a super sleek look.

A really beautiful look from Day 5 was that at Carolina Herrera. The same colours from Rag & Bone were used here but much more subtly. Taupe seems to be the hottest colour of the moment for doubling up on contouring (under the cheekbone) and for use on the eye. And that lipcolour! That lipcolour! Who are you?

Oh Marc! Marc Jacobs. What a dude! I think this makeup is awesome! Probably best left on the catwalk, but those eyes, you could definitely rock them at night. And the lips, I love that the bottom lip is one shade lighter than the top! They’re totally impossible to wear out (unless you don’t talk, eat, drink, press lips together etc… Trust me i’ve tried..) but it’s these small details that make makeup exciting! And fun! And it’s there to have fun with and not be taken seriously!

So go and try something new next time youre heading out!
