I never wear make up, I’d like to but when I put it on I just feel like a little girl having raided her mother’s dressing table! How can I wear it and still look natural?

The trick to look natural is to pick make up tones that match you own skin tone perfectly and not to over apply. A light foundation or tinted moisturizer will even out your complexion with out looking caked and then just set it with a little loose powder evenly brushed on. Applying with a sponge can make it look heavier if you are not careful.


Blusher is a great way of achieving a healthy glow and if you pick the right shade it can just look like you have just got in from a lovely walk in the fresh air!

If you don’t naturally have dark eyelashes then a brown eye shadow will look more natural than a heavy black one. Brown eye shadow is also fantastic for bringing out the colour in blue or green eyes. In addition to this you could play around with a little eye shadow to really accentuate your eyes. Look for a light shadow that can cover the eye lids to add just a touch of colour then apply a tiny amount of a darker shade to the out corner of the lower lid and blend in – this really opens up the eyes.

Then just top all of this off with a clear or subtle colour lip gloss to add a finished touch with out looking really made up.
