Summer 2017/2018: Key looks you need to know

BRIGHT COLOURS

From strawberry sunrise, through to spicy reds, sunshine yellow and orange ceramics it is all about feeling empowered with stand out colours this year. Deviate from the norm by incorporating some bright orange or shocking pink into your look.

NATURAL BEAUTY

The hottest trend on the catwalk is the no makeup, makeup look. It is about creating a fresh faced appearance giving you a brighter, healthier, younger and well rested look whilst keeping your makeup undetectable to others. Favour a BB cream over a full cover foundation to achieve this look. Team it with dewy highlights and you're makeup game will simply be flawless this season.

SOFT PINK

Match natural beauty with muted barely there soft pinks, for an ideal every day feminine look this season.

MOODY METALLICS

Metallic is everywhere this year, from metallic effect clothing, to holographic makeup and that metallic manicure. Metallics are bold, vibrant and make a strong statement, show them who is boss. Experiment with a matt metallic manicure or be brave and break out the metallic lipstick.

TROPICAL GREENS

Summer is taking us right to paradise. Travel through a summer of adventure with a tropical mixture of inventive new greens. From lime green to emerald with eye catching tropical prints, it is time to have that vacay feel every day.

WHITE

Whether it is a day at the beach or a day out with the girls, an all white look keeps things simple, yet elegant while keeping you looking fresh all season long. Achieve that sharp look on your nails with a squared off mani and matt white finish.

SMUDGED EYE

Forget that smoky eye, all that you need for this season is a smoky eyeliner, creating an extremely alluring and rock chic look. All the while it makes your make up process a whole lot easier!
