This is a great look for the office – simple to achieve yet fresh.
THE LOOK: “Inspired by the idea of a beautiful, fresh face – youthful and vibrant,” says James Kaliardos of NARS Cosmetics.
WHY IT WORKS: Spring is the perfect time for makeup free look which emphasizes luminous skin. Neutral tones make clothes the statement.
HOW TO: Brush eyes with a pink-brown shadow. Line the eyes with metallic eyeliner in a neutral shade. Apply natural lip colour matte lipstick. Highlight cheekbones with a light blush.
