Look Book: How To Amplify Your Eyes

Our eyes need to do all the talking at the moment, so we’ve put together three gorgeous looks that all skin tones can tap into this autumn…

RUST WASH

A wash of warm metallic across the eyelids gives everyone that effortlessly pulled together finish. For a spectrum of flattering rust shades look to Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Instant Eye Palette, £36.00. “Darker skin tones should opt for a metallic finish - we love Hourglass Scattered Light Glitter Eyeshadow, £23.20 - and use an eyeshadow base to make the colour pop,” says makeup artist Adele Sanderson.

GROWN-UP GLOSS

Forget pretty pink gloss, an oil slick finish is one of autumn’s chicest looks and suits every skin tone. The trick is to press the gloss on top of your smoky eye (or use Surratt Lid Lacquer, £28.00 for speed). “Adding a hint of gloss to the inner corners, over your smoky eye, can give hooded eyes instant lift,” says Adele. Don’t forget to finish with a sweeping of the NEW lash-transforming Nars Climax Extreme Mascara, £21.60.

GRAPHIC SHAPES

From Chantecaille’s must-have Safari Eye Trio, £72 (coming soon) to the Stila Magnificent Metals Shimmer & Glow Liquid Eye Shadow, N/A, it’s safe to say cooler metallic tones are having a moment. Use your fingers to create a diffused feline flick or a dusting of colour in the inner corners of your eye rather than laboriously perfecting the finish.
