Real makeup is back in style. I know we have all been wearing it through the barely there summer anyway but autumn/winter is all about polished, glamorous, gorgeous faces.
My Lust of the Month will help you to glow from the inside out. Our Gorgeous Girl smells as good as she sounds and this month's treat is a high powered anti-aging facial.
Two key makeup looks, which can be transported from catwalk to high street, are the intensely dark and winged eye which requires lashings of mascara to get the look. My favourite mascara has just had its own makeover, the new formulation adds even more length and this time is completely smudge proof. With all this attention to your peepers you will want the smoothest, most luminous eye area possible. I love Chantecaille new Nano Gold Energising Eye Cream. As well as containing the increasingly precious gold, shea butter, rare apple-plant and flower waxes all conspire to make this one of the best eye treatments around.
The second key look is a strong mouth. From a classic red to the deepest of plums. Dolce and Gabbana, NARS and the Lipstick Queen have gorgeous deeply pigmented tones to choose from. Like the eyes, lips need some extra attention this season so use a conditioning treatment, I love NV Perricone's Lip Plumper. It really does do what it says on the tin - lips are plumped up, smoothed up and moisturized. Follow up with foundation and powder and colour for extra staying power.
Kiss and make up - Gorgeous!
