A FLASH OF
EYELINER
More surprising than jewel tones, orange ticks
the playful box when it comes to eyeliner.
It’s at its most wearable and grown-up when it’s
shot with a little gold or a soft pearl, which dance
with light on the curved surface of the lid. It’s
more forgiving to apply than an opaque liner, too.
You can draw straight on to a bare lid, but it’s
better to anchor it and create depth and a frame for
the eyes by first stippling a waterproof black
eyeliner between the upper lashes. Throw in some
extra sparkle too, says Keeling, who used a
creamy shadow in a complementary copper tone
over the lids before pencilling a simple, casual line.
Mascara? Always. It might look cool on the
catwalk to pair naked lashes with coloured liner,
but IRL it looks unfinished without a few coats.
A nude lip colour, pressed on with fingers,
keeps attention focused on the eyes.
THE COLOUR
WA S H
Painterly eyeshadow washes can be
as bold or as soft as you want, says
Young. ‘Softer shades are always easier
on fairer skin, though the contrast
of something punchier looks fabulous;
it all depends on your comfort zone.’
A holiday feels like the right time
to experiment, I say. Be fearless.
Keeling took a vivid tangerine shade high
up over the socket line and towards the
brows for a strong look that makes eye
colour pop (this placement also makes
small eyes look wider), but if that feels
too edgy, keep colour to the lids only.
Finish with a few coats of black mascara
and a red stain on the lips to ensure the
look is tonal. Skip the blusher because it
fights with the eyes and lips.
