LFW Top Beauty Picks

As London Fashion Weeks ends we thought we would summarise our favourite looks both on and off the catwalk.

 Dewy, fresh skin

Model of the moment Jourdan Dunn sat front row in the Topshop Unique Autumn/Winter 2016 show with plump, flawless skin – a look also adopted by Akexander Wang and David Koma. This post-workout shine makes skin look healthy and full of youth.

Get the look:

Estee Lauder ‘Double wear brush-on glow BB’ highlighter (£24.50) is the perfect product to brighten, perfect and correct skin. The photo optic technology brightens skin and reduces any signs of fatigue.

Bobbi Brown’s new ‘Sheer finished press powder’ (£26.00) will help set and perfect foundation whilst creating a flawless finish.

Vivid, standout colours

Pinks, blues and yellows lit up the Ryan Lo Studio catwalk this LFW meaning it’s time to be bold this spring.

If you’re not ready to paint your lids pink just yet, why not ease yourself in with a colour mascara?

Yves Saint Lauren’s ‘Mascara volume effect faux cils in hippie green’ (£25)  is a subtle way to add a bit of colour to your beauty regime. Teal is falttering for all eye colours and counteracts any redness in the mornings – perfect!

Glitter embellished eyes

Markus Lupfer and Burberry set the catwalk alive with glitter this London Fashion Week. Models glided down the catwalk with metallic eyes, finished off with large hand-sewn sequins.

Get the look:

Brand Obsessive Cosmetic Compulsive have produced  ‘cosmetic glitter pots’ (£11) in a range of metallic colours. This is a US brand but they are available to buy in Selfridges in store and online. Before application add a little primer and the small glitter particles will last for hours.
