Make-up

Make-up is an art that's easy to pick up but hard to master. No matter if you're a conceal-and-go type or runway ready every day, you can get advice that's designed with you in mind from our expert make-up guides. From techniques you can apply in the back of a cab, to a full beat that any A-Lister would be proud to sport on the red carpet, here is where you'll find an array of tips and tricks to perfect the art of 'putting a face on’.

If you’re normally fond of a bold lip, why not experiment with focusing on your eyes for a gorgeous new look? Read about the best ways to create a statement eye look, mastering the art on a smoky eye and how to weald an eyeliner like a pro!

Looking to finesse your foundation? Here you’ll find plenty of articles offering the best ways to apply it, foundations to suit your skin type as well as formulas that suit more mature skin. Some of us may prefer to skip foundation altogether (especially in the intense heat), but for others it’s not an option – especially if we’re self-conscious about our acne or uneven skin tone (or just prefer how our skin looks with foundation). So for all your foundation queries and concerns, our team have got you (and your complexion) covered.

If you’ve ever wondered what’s the difference between contouring and bronzing then you probably aren’t the only one. On first glance, they both seem to be doing the same thing – adding definition and warmth, with a focus around the cheeks and jawline. Here you can learn more about both techniques and the difference between them. (Trust us, there is a difference!)
