HOW TO GET THE LOOK: Make-up<br />

artists made use of foundation,<br />

concealer and powder <strong>to</strong> get their<br />

models’ complexions looking pristine<br />

on the catwalks.<br />

The key <strong>to</strong> achieving immaculate<br />

skin is all in the prepping. Make-up<br />

blends more easily if the skin is<br />

moist, so tell cus<strong>to</strong>mers <strong>to</strong> start by<br />

massaging in a moisturiser. They<br />

should then pat on a blob of<br />

primer such as L’Oréal Paris<br />

Studio Secrets<br />

Professional Smoothing<br />

Resurfacing Primer <strong>to</strong><br />

even out skin texture.<br />

For the most natural finish,<br />

recommend a base with a liquid<br />

formula, like the new No7 Instant<br />

Radiance Foundation, which contains<br />

soft violet pearls <strong>to</strong> add luminosity and mask<br />

imperfections. Alternatively, new Lancôme<br />

Teint Miracle is made with a cutting-edge<br />

technology that uses polarised light <strong>to</strong> give<br />

skin a glo<strong>win</strong>g and light-infused finish, while<br />

new EcoCert certified Une Skin Glow<br />

Foundation will add a boost of radiance.<br />

For professional results, the experts<br />

recommend blending in small dots of base<br />

with a sponge or brush – The Body<br />

Shop Foundation Brush is a great<br />

mass market option.<br />

Concealer should only be dabbed on<br />

where necessary, like under the eyes or <strong>to</strong><br />

blot out blemishes. To set the look and <strong>to</strong><br />

ensure it stays put, tell cus<strong>to</strong>mers <strong>to</strong> tap<br />

skin with a powder such as Elizabeth<br />

Arden Flawless Finish Pressed<br />

Powder under the eyes, on the forehead<br />

and around the nose and chin.<br />

Trick<br />

OF THE TRADE<br />

Make-up artist James Kaliardos, who is<br />

L’Oréal Paris’s go-<strong>to</strong>-guy for all make-up<br />

matters, says we shouldn’t underestimate the<br />

power of a primer. “It’s great for smoothing<br />

out the complexion, especially on the<br />

shadowy and rougher areas of the<br />

face like the lower con<strong>to</strong>ur of the<br />

eye, forehead, sides of the<br />

nostrils and around<br />

the mouth.”<br />
