1.Treat the skin. Wild About Beauty’s Rose Water Illuminating Serum (£22, wildaboutbeauty.com and House of Fraser) hydrates skin and contains light-reflecting particles to give the complexion the luminosity that you’ll need after work.
1.Treat the skin. Wild About Beauty’s Rose Water Illuminating Serum (£22, wildaboutbeauty.com and House of Fraser) hydrates skin and contains light-reflecting particles to give the complexion the luminosity that you’ll need after work. Also try Nude Pro Genius (£58) at Space NK which really changes the texture of the skin2. Prime the skin. JSilicone-based primers save on the amount of foundation you use, but I’ve heard good things about Freeze 24.7 (£45 at Debenhams), a high-tech skin retoucherWild About Beauty’s Mattifying Balm (£20) which instantly mattifies shine, so the complexion looks smooth, even and refined.3. Choose the right foundation formula for your skin. If you have dry skin, use a cream or liquid foundation such as Urban Decay’s The Naked Skin Foundation (£27 at Debenhams).For oilier skin, choose powder, or mineral foundation. Bellapierre’s compact mineral 5-in-1 foundation (£39.99, bellapierre.co.uk) gives a matte coverage without looking heavy and it has a great mirror that reflects your whole face.4. Blushing. Too much blusher with vivid lipstick is not really a good idea as you can end up looking rather like a red fruit. But if you are using mineral foundation, Bellapierre’s mineral blush (£29.99) sits nicely on the cheeks. 5. Sculpt. Sculpting Powder (£34 at Space NK) by make-up artist Kevyn Aucoin, who pioneered the natural look, is for creating depth to define your favorite features and enhance your complexion. Use it on the temples, jawline and cheek contours.
