your make-up

Beauty Tips - Rutland & Lincolnshire

Layering make-up will help it last longer in hot weather. Rather than applying one thick coat of eyeshadow, blusher or lipstick, take a little more time to gradually build up the depth of shade with a few coats of colour. This way you can gauge exactly the finished effect you want and it'll help you beat the heat, too.



Beauty secrets from
around the world

In Russia, women whip each other with dried twigs to get rid of their cellulite. Sounds like suffering for your appearance.

Chinese women drink green-pea soup to help keep their skin wrinkle-free and smooth.

Women in India concoct a home-made setting lotion by leaving wood shavings in a glass of water overnight.

4 steps to plumper lips
1. Apply foundation to lips - use a make-up sponge for a more even application
2. Softly outline your lips using a pencil just slightly darker than your natural lip colour.
3. Apply lipstick with a brush for a more accurate outline. Blot with tissue and re-apply.
4. Use clear lip gloss - add to centre, top and bottom of lips to create the illusion of fullness.
