SS16 Looks With Lynsey Alexander

SS16 Makeup TipsWe’ve teamed up with Estée Lauder’s UK Makeup Ambassador to bring you some exclusive top tips straight from the catwalks on how to get a SS16 look. 

Barely There

Step 1: Massage Revitalising Supreme Global Anti-Aging Creme into skin to plump up and promote circulation for a hydrated, radiant look.

Step 2: Enlighten “EE” Even Effect Skintone Corrector SPF 30 is like a golden kiss for skin and provides an overall even effect for the face—layer this on next.

Step 3: I swear by Double Wear Stay-in-Place High Cover Concealer SPF 35 to cover imperfections. Buff it into skin where needed, using a fluffy eyeshadow brush for flawless coverage.

Step 4: Apply Double Wear Brush-On Glow BB Highlighter straight from the actual applicator, dotting it down the different areas of the face where light would hit (under eyes, cheekbones, nose, brow bone).

Spot On

Step 1: Use Double Wear Stay-in-Place Brow Lift Duo pencil to add in the freckles, opting for the same colour as you would on your natural eyebrows.

Step 2: Soften the pencilled-in freckles with your fingertip. This gives the illusion you have no makeup on.

Step 3: Set with powder to finish.

Neon Signs

Step 1: To begin, the trick is to scrub lips, because bright colour reveals imperfections more. I use a makeup wipe over the mouth, then dip a cotton bud in Advanced Night Repair serum and coat the lips.

Step 2: Double Wear Stay-In-Place Lip Pencil in Clear will help seal lipstick in place and stop it from feathering.

Step 3: Use a flat lip brush to apply your neon colour (here I used Pure Color Envy Sculpting Lipstick in Defiant Coral), gliding it from corner to corner of the mouth, with the full length of the brush against your lips.

Step 4: Next, layer it with the lipstick straight from the bullet to build up coverage.

Step 5: To complete the look, take a very thin layer of Little Black Primer and push it into the roots of the lashes.
