COLOUR TIPS AND TRICKS

There are no right or wrong colours to wear. Whatever colour your eyes are don’t be afraid to experiment.

Contrasting colours emphasise eye colour.

Max Factor Earth Spirits eyeshadow in Pale Pebble is a fantastic base for other shades.

Remember, less is more. Add colour little by little and blend well. Don't forget it's easy to add extra eyeshadow but tricky to remove too much.

Blue eyes look great with greys, mauves and pinks. A violet line under the lower lashes looks striking. Dark make-up is a fantastic contrast to paler eyes.

Browns emphasise blue eyes. Sweep Earth Spirits eyeshadow in Pale Pebble all over the lid and up to the brows. Take Terra Firma eyeshadow across the upper lashes and blend up to the socket.

Darker eyes look wonderfully seductive with more natural tones such as browns, blacks, almond and peaches. The high contrast between black or brown and a creamy shade allows greater scope to create both highly dramatic and subtle looks.

If you are wearing dark eyeshadow, use a little translucent powder under the eye to catch any colour that falls onto the cheekbones. These specks of colour can be easily swept away without spoiling the foundation.

For more mature skin, avoid dark shadow which emphasises the skin's texture. A paler, shinier colour, like Cinder or Almond, will be more flattering.
