Image Credit @ Chris Colls for Elle France Don’t like glossy lips? No matte-r! This season, matte look lips are trending, so it’s time to embrace a long-wear, sophisticated finish. Matte lipsticks can give a modern finish that complements the fresh, dewy complexions of springtime, so if you’re opting for fresh, gorgeous, radiant skin, a matte look can be the perfect contrast. When selecting the best matte lip colours for spring, consider shades that are flattering, comfortable to wear, and on-trend.

Image Credit @ Chris Colls for Behind The Blinds Our pre-bedtime skincare regime can make all the difference when it comes to waking up looking and feeling fresh-faced. It all starts with our cleansing regime to thoroughly clean skin (I recommend a 3-step cleanse for a complete clean) and then application of hydrating and rejuvenating skincare.

One of the most effective ways to combat the signs of ageing and revive your skin overnight is by incorporating a high-quality ..read more

Image Credit @ Homolog Couture Paris Before we run through the biggest trends from the shows, it’s worth remembering that as with the fashion, lifting looks directly off the catwalks isn’t for everyone. Some of the looks are gorgeous but may need paring down to work in real life, so use the runway images as inspiration and figure out how to wear the look in the real world, or suit it to your style. Having said that, my pick of the AW24 beauty trends are all super wearable, so there’s no need to wait until next season to get stuck into these makeup looks fresh from the catwalks.

Image Credit @ Liz Collins for Vogue Poland Spring cleaning is not just for your house. After a long winter season, your skin may be needing a reset, too. At this time of year I like to pack my diet with lots of fresh, leafy greens to give my skin and overall health a boost, which means that salads are well and truly on the menu.

Rocket is one of the tastiest ways to add a green boost to your meal, so I thought I ..read more

And while we do have our favourites, obviously everything ..read more
