Get the look
The Glowing Complexion
- The first step in creating a fresh glow is to use a hydrating primer like Hourglass N.28 Primer Serum £28.00 uk.spacenk.com
- Use a foundation that doesn't look like you're wearing it! Revlon's new Nearly Naked foundation £8.99 glides on with fingertips and blends seamlessly into the skin. www.boots.com
- Dab a nude pink cream blush onto the apples of the cheeks (smiling will help to pronounce them so it’s easier to see where to apply.) Try Nars Cream Blush in Penny Lane £21.00. www.narscosmetics.co.uk
The Speedy Smoky eye
- Take time consuming blending out of the equation by choosing a cream, stick eye shadow like Clinique Chubby Stick Shadow Tint for Eyes in Curvaceous Coal £16.00. It’s a doddle to apply and won’t budge once dry. Glide above the upper lash line and smudge any rough edges with a brush or cotton bud. www.clinique.co.uk
- Rim the waterline (the inner part of the lower lash line) with a water resistant kohl pencil like Bobbi Brown Longwear Eye Pencil in jet £17.50. www.bobbibrown.co.uk
- Smoky eyes need to be framed with killer lashes. Try Mac Opulash Optimum Black £14.00- a blacker than black volumising mascara for those who like lashes to look their fullest. www.maccosmetics.co.uk
Opt for a sheer lipstick
- Transparent lip colours help make lips look their fullest and are so easy to use that you can even reapply thought the day or night without using a mirror. Take Jennifer's lead and choose a colour that's just one shade deeper than your natural lip colour. I love Lipstick Queen Saint Lipstick in Pinky Nude £18.00 uk.spacenk.com
Adele by Heidi Scarlett King
She sets the world alight with her music and with this bold and beautiful red carpet look, follows suit in the make-up world too! Adele always has that perfect polished look For any awards ceremony but with this winning look, she takes my first place in the make-up stakes for the evening. Here's how to get her look.
Skin
As they always say, it's all In the preparation!To get your skin looking Oscar-winning, start with the best of the best in BB Creams by De'cleor (Hydra Flora BB cream, £33,pre-orders avail. Out in May) massaging into the face evenly to give an injection of Botanical goodness, SPF protection and a soft-focus, light reflecting effect to the skin.
Add a luxuriously creamy and good-coverage foundation to go the extra mile all-night with Bourjois' New & Improved Healthy Mix Serum (£10).
Contour the edges of the face with MAC Mineralise skin finish in Medium Dark (£21) & buff a neutral-peachy tone Blush into the apple of the cheeks, such as the stunning Paul & Joe Creamy cheek powder in No.3 (£18.50)

Eyes
To get this come-hither eye look I'd go straight to this beautiful New Urban Decay Oz Great and Powerful Theadora Limited edition Palette. So many looks to be created from this one Palette & it also includes a Waterproof Eyeliner & Lip colour. (£35). This look wouldn't be complete without some Glamourous False lashes like Boots own in Natural Volume(£4).
