Get The Look

Skincare

Before creating a lasting look, it's important to cleanse, nourish and hydrate your skin properly. Use a gentle cleanser to rid your pores and the surface of your skin of any dirt or debris that could get trapped. Once cleansed, you'll need to moisturise your skin to avoid leaving it feeling dehydrated. A good eye cream, like the Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Eye Cream, helps to reduce dark eye circles while also brightening your face. A super-charged facial lotion like the Nutritious Super Pomegranate Radiant Energy Lotion from Estée Lauder, will help you to retain moisture in your skin throughout the night. This Multi-Action Detox lotion protects your skin against pollution with anti-oxidant power while comforting the skin and helping to balance out its PH level. Plus it will help to heal any spots or marks you might have on your skin.

How to apply:

• Pat 5-6 drops onto your skin
• Using your palms or cotton, apply the lotion in a sweeping motion to lock it in

If you're aiming for a more matte look, try the Estée Lauder DayWear Matte Oil-Control Anti-Oxidant Moisture Gel Creme. This product helps to control oil, minimise shine, and resist the first signs of aging.

A little goes a long way:

• Just a pea-sized amount in the morning and evening massaged into your skin will make all the difference to your completed look

The finishing touches

Now that you have a flawless foundation, its time to add the finishing touches.

For your cheeks, you want to choose a blush that complements and enhances your natural skin tone and undertones - to help give you a natural-looking glow that will turn heads. The Pure Color Envy Sculpting Blush collection from Estée Lauder features a range of luxurious and lightweight blush shades and textures you can choose from. Just one sweep of these blushes will have your cheekbones and their apples glowing, defined and sculpted. 

How to apply:

• Apply it in an 'X' motion 
• Brush the product up from the apples of your cheeks toward your temples or ears

Add some smoke and edge to your lash-line with Estée Lauder's Double Wear Infinite Waterproof Eyeliner to emphasise your eyes and bring them out with a slight wing. 

To achieve a cat-eye look:

• Apply a line of liner above your lash line 
• Then carefully and delicately extend this line following the natural curve of your lower lash-line

Pairing this with their Sumptuous Extreme Mascara will help complete your eye look simply and elegantly.

Last, but not least, a good lipstick makes all the difference to a look. Estée Lauder's Pure Color Envy lipstick line comes in a range of neutral and vibrant colours for you to choose from. The luxurious rich and creamy longwearing formula will leave your lips feeling smooth and moisturised. If you are after a fuller lip look that lasts even longer - you can pair this lipstick with a base layer of their Double Wear Stay-in-Place Lip Pencil in a matching shade.
