new fine extension, Bobbi

is lush with jewel tones
inspired by spring’s blooms.

If vou thought that sum-
mer makeup was set to be
subile, think again.

The beauty houses are
offering a spectrum of warm
and exotic shades. Orange
and purple tones are clashing
with “80s beachside attitude
in Helena Rubenstein's
Beauty on the Rocks range
and Yves Saint Laurent’s
summer collection.
Maybelline goes boho-chie as
their East Mystique line
smoulders in a palette of
coral, fuchsia and amethyst.
Chanel’s Pure Frost collec-
tion includes shimmering
pots of bronze and peach
sparkling gei that light up
cheeks, lips and ... anything
else.

Be bold, be beautiful and
get noticed!

The best-looking beauty
trend is a classic: red fips. For
real-life proof of how beauti-
ful the look can be, think of
Oscar standouts Minnie
Driver and Sharon Stone.
Each looks elegandy glam,
thanks in large part to red
lipstick. If vou choose to join
the crimson tide, keep the
rest of vour makeup simple,
but polished.

It’s loud, it’s bright, it’s
colourful and after fast sum-
mer’s ultra-natural beauty,
who would have chought that
heavy shadow would make
such a dramatic return?

Across between bohemian
decadence and smoky sedue-
tion, vamp eves are returning
as one of the sexiest looks
this year. The force behind
the purple haze at Missoni is
to keep evervthing else sim-
ple. The effect is real and
touchable.

Sure, the shocking blues
and purples that fit up the
spring runways are great for
clothing, but you've got to

be pretty daring, to wear
them on vour face. Well, tret
Net.

Lavender is a much more
wearable shade than those
bright blues we saw on the
catwalks. A frosty pink is alse.
very cool. Its very "60s, very
courageous and very mod.
And they Jook good with
almost any eve colour.

With the dawning of a
new age just around the cor-
nec, Christian Dior is shrug-
ging off the classic and don-
ning the futuristic.

The NightGlow collection
is perfect for girls who party
and want to turn heads.
Applied in lit surroundings,
the liner for body and face
and the hair mascara are
invisible. But once you set
foot in a nightclub, be pre-
pared to brighten the room.
Nail varnishes sparkle by day
and glow by night and white
liner attracts ultraviolet light
for flashing eyes. A very mod-
ern and ultra feminine, glam-
orous touch to evening

effects.

Flawless beauty does take
a little bit of effort. Some
people worry that wearing
makeup means they'll Jook
“made-up.” Not so.

You can use it to play up
your prettiest features and
de-emphasize the ones you
don't love as much. And
nobody will ever suspect this
isn’t the gorgeous face you
wake up with every morning.

The colours are ultimately
wearable. Makeup is divided
between slick fururisn. od
bohemian nostalgia. 2 ¢
buzz word is contrast, with
an emphasis on individuality.
I've had enough of minimal-
ism. Haven't you?
