Forget the natural look - this season, it’s all about being brave…

This is a Marie Claire Advertorial

Bold prints are at the forefront of our minds this season, as everything from floral, to leopard and paisley becomes a summer must-have. But with such strong looks taking over our wardrobes, should we be thinking about switching up our make-up? Yes. For day, keep it simple and paired-back and for night, go all out and match your make-up to your outfit…

Think you can’t wear metallics in the day? Think again and add a subtle hint of sparkle to your look with the Cream Eye Shadow by RMS Beauty in Seduce. This glittering gold will look gorgeous swept lightly across the eyelid – think of it as a nude to pair with bold prints and clashing colours.

Or, if you wearing a muted print, add a hint of colour to your make-up with the Smudge Stick Waterproof Eyeliner by Stila in Purple Tang. Glide this super-smooth, non-moving eyeliner close to your lashes to make your eyes pop.

For after dark, match something a little more colourful to your chosen print. A nail colour in a bright hue, either the same or in fabulous clashing colour, will top off your outfit for an immaculate, on-trend finish. We particularly like Gel-Effect Nail Polish by Nails Inc. in Seven Dials.
