There’s no escaping suede this season. Embrace it as a wardrobe staple with a suede jacket over a flowing maxi for a gentle hippy vibe, or accessorise with an over-the-knee boot for retro mentality.
DON’T BE AFRAID TO MIX AND MATCH WITH TEXTURES SUCH AS
THE HAIR AND BEAUTY LOOKS YOU NEED FOR AW16
NATURAL STRAIGHT HAIR
HAIR
Starting with dry hair, use a PADDLE BRUSH to gather your locks into a high ponytail. Hold your ponytail in place with one hand and APPLY A SHINE AND HOLD SPRAY with the other. Before the product dries, use a COMB to pull back your ponytail as sleek as can be. Secure with a HAIR TIE
MAKEUP
A bold, dark lip calls for a neutral face. First, use a LIPLINER in a similar colour to outline your lips. This will also help keep your lipstick on longer. A couple of coats of your chosen LIPSTICK, a swirl of BRONZER to define your cheekbones and a few lashings of MASCARA onto curled lashes and you’ve got yourself a sexy, mysterious night-time look.
HAIR
BLOW-DRY freshly-washed hair until straight, using a ROUND BRUSH to keep some volume. For extra shine, add some SHINE SERUM to your locks.
MAKEUP
This look is all about the eyes so keep your lips and cheeks quite neutral, using soft, earthy tones. Choose a BLUE EYELINER that you feel comfortable rocking and line the top lids. If you’re feeling extra adventurous, line the bottom lids as well. Follow with a couple of coats of MASCARA onto curled lashes.
HAIR
Apply SEA SALT SPRAY to freshly-washed, wet hair to create some waves. Once your hair has dried, run a PADDLE BRUSH lightly through the lengths. Use a VOLUMISING POWDER on the roots for some extra lift.
MAKEUP
Start with a light layer of your favourite TINTED MOISTURISER for natural coverage. Apply HIGHLIGHTER under the eyes, nose, forehead and chin, and blend with your fingers. Follow with a SOFT BRUSH OF BLUSH/BRONZER and a CREAM SHIMMER on the tops of your cheekbones and entire eyelids. Finish with a coat or two of MASCARA and a natural-coloured lip.
