‘ILLUMINATING TINTED

MOISTURISER GIVES

A NATURAL LOOKING

GLOW WITH MINIMAL

MAINTENANCE–IDEAL FOR

FOUNDATION-PHOBES’

Thismonth, beauty director Lisa Oxenham

visitsFabled byMarie Clairebeauty store

to pick out her favourite party make-up

I’veshied away from talking about daytime make-up in

thiscolumn because I don’t wear a lot of it at work, or at

the weekends. However, when it comes to dates and

discos, it’s a whole different ball game. I’ve worn Estée

Lauder The Illuminator Radiant Perfecting Primer +

Finisher,£28, to every party since it launched eight years

ago. I smooth it all over my face as the first step in my

make-uproutine – then I’ll use it again right at the end instead of

highlighter, as you get extra gleam, minus any obvious shimmer.

I love Laura Mercier’s Illuminating Tinted Moisturiser SPF20,

£ 35, too. It gives a natural-looking glow and involves minimal

maintenance, making it ideal for foundation-phobes. It also

comesin a wide range of shades and is suitable for all skin types

• even the super oily. There’s just one caveat: it looks dark when it
  comesout fresh from the tube, so blend a little on the jaw before
  committing to a shade. Forparty make-up, my motto is, ‘go bold or
  stayhome’ – even with lipstick. In
  the past, I’ve favoured a near-black
  eye shadow buffed into the crease
  andsmudged down onto the lower
  lash line. Currently, though, I’m
  experimenting with the caramel
  hues in Urban Decay’s Naked
  Honeypalette, £42, which create an
  eye-opening pop of colour. Mascara-
  wise, I avoid thickening formulas
  for a clump-free finish. Clinique’s
  Naturally Glossy Mascara in Jet Black, £20, is one of the best on
  themarket, as it delicately coats lashes and is smudge-proof.
  I apply it in a horizontal zigzag motion, leave it for 30 seconds,
  thenrepeat, which lengthens lashes without making them look
  spidery. Finally,Nars Semi Matte Lipstick in Heat Wave, £22, is my
  go-to lip colour. Not too matte, not too orange and a cinch
  to apply – just what you want when you’re swiping it on in the taxi!

Aka, ‘magic powder in

a pot’. The pros swear

by this lightweight

formula on shoots for

its smooth, flawless finish

that doesn’t dry out skin.

BenefitDandelion

Face Powder, £26

Thissheer, ballerina-

pinkface powder takes

a complexion from

dull to radiant with

the teeniest amount

of shimmer. I sweep it

overmy cheekbones

and down my nose

as a soft blush.
