Autumnal Make-Up Tutorial

3 different ways to wear this season’s autumn make-up trends! 
By Chloe Dench and Lauren Moon

Look 1– Big Lashes
Start with applying a nude eye shadow all over your eyelids, to even your skin tone. I used the MUA Undress Me Too palette. 

Next, add a thin line of eyeliner if you wish. I used a thin liner of black eyeshadow to add definition. 

The most important step in this look is the mascara. I used Maybelline The Colossal Volum’ Express mascara for the first two coats then I finished off with a coat of Rimmel Scandaleyes Retro Glam mascara.

Look 2– Plum Lips
Start by lining your lips with a plum coloured lip liner– this will help to stop your lipstick from bleeding. For this look, I used the Sleek Eau La La Liner in Raisin 293.

Next, apply your lipstick all over your lips. I used Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick in Dark Night Waterl-oops!. This lipstick is quite moisturising, so you don’t really need a lip balm underneath. If you’re out and about take it with you though, as it does tend to come off quite easily when you eat!

Look 3 -Bronze and Purple Eyes
Start by applying a bronze cream eyeshadow, such as Maybelline Color Tattoo in On and On Bronze, all over the lid.

Add a touch of gold eyeshadow to the centre of the lid, and a lighter shade to highlight in the inner corner. 

Blend a dark purple eye shadow into the outer corners and along the lashline, then finish with mascara and eyeliner. This look works well with bronzed skin.
