As the days become sunnier and the trouser length slowly shortens to the knee (or in more unfortunate cases the upper thigh) it is time for a make-up change.
Luckily, this season is bringing bright back-with the focus on the eyes and lips. However, although this is all exciting for all of us who remember the days of face-paint and dress up, it does create a problem - what does one focus on? (Note: although Rihanna, Boy George and others can pull dramatic eyes and lips off, for the average fashionista less is more).
So the debate begins. For all those with dark eyes and long eyelashes, focus on the lips. Clearly, you're blessed insofar as being able to save much money on less mascara - so focus on the lips to highlight this.
My personal favorite lip paint is Mac's, try Sheen Supreme lipstick, and to go with the bright colour trend choose "Quite the thing!" if you're daring or "Look at her!".
However, if you're blessed with lips that are naturally tinted and would rather focus on your "windows into the soul" (eyes) then use Mac's new "In Extra Dimension" eye shadow, promising to create striking looks. I advise wearing a nude lip in contrast with "Lunar" or "Rich Core" eyeshadow to stick with this season's bright colours theme.
So the result of the debate? Choose your less dominant feature and dress it up as if you were about to walk Vivienne Westwood's runway...
