What is the one<br />
makeup trend in<br />
<strong>2020</strong> you won’t be<br />
able to live without?<br />
“There’s so many<br />
wearable trends this<br />
season, but as an<br />
artist, the one I can’t<br />
do without (for pure<br />
delight factor!) is<br />
Flashes Of Colour on<br />
the eyes. Think small<br />
yet impactful uses of<br />
colourful eyeshadow<br />
or eyeliner. The<br />
tones are everything<br />
from pink and purple<br />
through to lime,<br />
lavender and dark<br />
blue. It can be worn as<br />
a soft wash of colour<br />
across the lid, a messy<br />
swipe of intense<br />
cream colour or a<br />
flash of unexpected<br />
pop eyeliner.”<br />
AL QUINN<br />

How do you plan to<br />
stay ahead of the<br />
game this year?<br />
“In <strong>2020</strong> we’re going<br />
to focus on our people<br />
and our customers.<br />
For our people, it’s<br />
about supporting their<br />
wellbeing, providing the<br />
training they need and<br />
creating an amazing<br />
work environment<br />
so they continue<br />
to provide the best<br />
support and software<br />
to our customers. For<br />
our customers, we<br />
know their clients are<br />
the most important<br />
thing to them. So we’ll<br />
focus on providing<br />
them with the tools<br />
and support they need<br />
to consistently be at<br />
their best in front of<br />
their clients.”<br />
NIKKI<br />
SOMERSET<br />
CEO,<br />
BLC Cosmetics<br />
What do you see as a<br />
major trend in <strong>2020</strong>?<br />
“The homecoming for<br />
professional skin care is<br />
here. Whether brands<br />
are cosmeceutical<br />
or traditional,<br />
performance is now<br />
assumed but all<br />
performance is not<br />
equal. What’s different<br />
is that traditional<br />
professional brands<br />
deliver more than<br />
the benefits on the<br />
box. We’ve never<br />
been more connected<br />
digitally, and yet<br />
more disconnected<br />
socially. The power of<br />
a therapist’s touch is<br />
beyond skin deep, and<br />
as therapists, never<br />
before have we held<br />
more power to make<br />
a difference.”<br />
