Max Your Look

Bring out your finest features without the trek or the cost of the beauty parlour.

ROUGE TIP: Moisturise your skin and allow a minute for this to settle before applying foundation. This makes it easier to blend foundation in and avoid caking.

Max Factor’s new Lipfinity Lip Tint is the simplest way to paint on a pair of lips! Try deep fruity shades – Lipfinity Lip Tint’s deep wine, plum and berry colours are bang on trend. Available at Priceline.

Step-by-step

  1. 1. YOUR FACE

    In winter use a lighter foundation than in summer – it shouldn’t be noticeably a different colour to the rest of your skin when you apply it between the cheekbone and jaw. Then apply a very slightly darker colour over the nose, cheeks, chin and forehead to add a beautiful subtly contrasting tone.

  2. 2. YOUR EYES

    Darker eyeshadow will deepen a hollow appearance – highlighting contours and lashlines.
    Lighter eyeshadows make key points stand out – giving a fresh look to eyelids and browbones.
    Brown mascara tends to be more flattering as you get older and your skin tone changes.
    Blue mascara makes the whites of your eyes stand out more.

  3. 3. YOUR LIPS

    A matt finish creates a more subtle, sophisticated, natural finish.
    Use a pearl lipstick or gloss to reflect the light to accentuate lips for a sexy look.
    Smaller lips can be exaggerated with a brighter colour, a darker colour will play down a fuller lip.
