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 />
