Top Tip Tuesday for Winter Make Up

Winter challenges your skin and makeup more than any other season. So here are my tips on what you need to know to give your skin the extra care and attention it needs, plus tips on beauty products for achieving the right winter look.

Karla’s Top Tips for Winter Make-up:

·       MUA’s Trio Eye shadows in ‘Chocolate Box’, £2.50 are the perfect understated shades for winter eyes, such as coffee, chocolate and smoky shades.

·       Berry tones for lips replace the fresh summer face, MUA lipstick in ‘Shade 1’, £1 has those berry tones.

·       Use blackberry (shade 22) and copper (shade 7) MUA nail polish, £1 each to darken your nails. It is perfect for the season.

·       Try coloured mascara like navy, burgundy, and auburn that gives lashes a subtle colour and some depth as well, without looking too obvious. MUA Mascara, £1 in ‘Shade 4’ has a beautiful pay off for that auburn winter look.

·       Winter calls for more defined eyes. So, you should use a rich brown eyeliner or charcoal liner along your upper lashes. MUA eye liner in ‘Rich Brown’, £1 glides easily onto the eyes giving it that natural subtle winter look.

·       It is a good idea to opt for neutral shades of makeup, such as light browns, greys, pinks and purples our ‘Dusk til Dawn’ palette, £4 is perfect for this colour combination.

·       If you want to draw attention to only one area of your face during winter, it is best to put emphasis on your eyes. A smoky eye look will work well during this time of year. Smoky eyes look best in winters. For sultry effect, you can use eye shadows in cinnamon and coffee shades… ‘Heaven & Earth’ palette, £4! Has an amazing colour combination for sultry effects.

·       Keep your lips moisturised in order to prevent them from becoming cracked and dry. It is a good idea to apply a lip-gloss throughout the day and I love using MUA lip gloss in ‘Shade 4’,£1.

·       A light, matte foundation as well as a tinted powder, with a slight shimmer, look great in winters. Try our MUA Matte foundation, £2.
