Line Up
Eyeliner has never been out of fashion, but architectural dramatic sweeps are big news for autumn. Catwalk looks experimented with cute kitten flicks, soft smudged edges and bold sharp spikes as a means of creating different impressions. Smoky eyes were achieved using multiple levels of black for a winged out graphic, feline effect.
Go back to basics and pencil on thick lines along the lower and upper lash lines with a liquid eyeliner, but
always remember to flatter your eye shape.

Glossy Glamour
Forget matte and give your pout a new-season twist with a high-gloss look. It's grown-up, decadent and deliciously bold teamed with on-trend dark berry colours.
You don't have to invest in a new gloss colour. Try a deep burgundy or claret lipstick and add a layer of thick, clear gloss to instantly transform your lips. You should look as though you've just polished off a delicious bowl of cherries.

Bleach Babe
Ditch the dark eyebrow pencil for this futuristic trend. Eyebrows have gone pale and interesting.
No drastic tweezer or bleach-bottle action is required. Brows can be paled down with a pencil that blends the hairs so they almost fade into your skin tone. Removing your eyebrows like this takes away one of your face's key features, moving the emphasis on to others like cheekbones, lips or eyes for added
drama.

Purple Power
A quick perusal of seasonal shades is highly recommended, eye-popping purple is the standout colour.
Lips, eyes and nails, there's no feature escaping this purple reign. For an accessible look, use purple to update a classic smoky eye. It's a colour that complements all complexions, and is especially wearable with a hint of metallic for evening glamour.
From vibrant violet to sultry amethyst, there's a shade of purple for everyone.

Luxe Beauty
Baroque decadence is a key trend for new-season fashion, and the look extends to faces. Get a gilt-edged glow, golden eyelids or try a gold-leaf lacquer on nails to look uber-expensive. Chanel even used heavily embellished crystal eyebrows on the catwalk. To go extra-subtle, use a hint of gold as a highlighter on your cupid's bow to give your lips a touch of luxe.
If you're opting for the lavish look, keep your skin fresh and modern, and hair chic and simple.

Soft Curls In Just 8 Steps:
1. Wash and brush your hair thoroughly. Scraggily scrunch your hair when it's wet for that beachy, wavy look.
2. Divide your tresses into upper, middle and lower layers.
3. Take the lower layer closer to your neckline and make a few thick strands. The size of the section influences the crispness of the curl. Spray volumising serum on every strand individually. Avoid using styling products like hair spray or gels, they make your hair hard and droopy instead of the lively,
natural ones.
4. Use a straightening iron near the tip of one strand and roll the iron inwards or outwards. Do not spray hair products while ironing your hair, it could burn your tresses. Complete the rest of the sections similarly.
5. Continue the same procedure in the middle layer with slightly thinner hair strands.
6. Follow the same procedure with the upper layer. Use the help of a tail comb to separate every strand, possibly one inch wide. This section takes longer because you need to 'tease' your layers for volume.
7. For teasing hair, firmly hold up the strand with one hand, gently brush against it. Make sure to keep a distance of approximately five inches from the scalp. Make sure that you create tangles, that offer resistance. Keep on repeating the brushing, till you have attained the desired volume. After this, apply serum on the teased section. Let it down gently and finally curl your locks.
8. Brush hair from middle downwards with your fingers to soften the curls.
