Beauty THE KEY TO LOOKING PERFECTLY POLISHED Turn heads with hair and make-up straight from the catwalk F rom lash lifts to DIY dermabrasion, make- up artist and beauty expert KSAVI gives TLL the heads up on achievable beauty tips and trends for the coming year. Bold lips They’re here to stay. Teamed with a glossy lid, it’s an effortless look for anytime of year, but a pink-red toned lip is spot on for a spring or summer evening. Give Maybelline’s Superstay Matt Ink a try for the perfect pout. Eyelash extensions False lashes are still the go-to for Instagrammable eyes, but for an everyday look, lash lifts – a natural treatment that lasts up to eight weeks  – are bang on trend. A lash lift will boost your lash length and volume for a more striking finish to the eyes. My preferred option is Lash Perfect’s Lash Lift Treatment. Simple skincare As opposed to the much- hyped Korean 10-step Skincare Routine, hybrid ‘2-in-1’ products save time and money, and they’re a dream to apply. You can now get that beautiful glass skin effect, like the one seen on the Noon By Noor catwalk, even if you don’t have an hour to spare. Dip powder manicure They last longer than gel polish and don’t require UV light. What’s not to love? Dip powder nails are here to stay. Pair them with an almond nail shape for of-the- moment appeal. Blush For me, spring and summer are the seasons of romance, flushed cheeks and innocent beauty, so I’m always excited to see lots of it on the runway. It’s one of my favourite trends at the moment, so embrace it. Ayurvedic wellbeing Ayurveda tells us that wellness comes from the balance of the mind, body, spirit and environment, and I couldn’t agree more. More people are focusing on positivity, which includes taking care of themselves with “Spring and summer will be the seasons of romance, flushed cheeks and innocent beauty” natural blends that use Ayurvedic herbs. Made By Yoke is my go-to for these products. At-home facial treatments As brands diversify their product range, there are plenty of at-home treatments to enjoy. I picked up a micro- dermabrasion home kit from a beauty salon when I was in New York; it’s so refreshing to be able to work on my skin from the comfort of my own studio. Big brows It’s time to catch up. Big brows are not going anywhere. Find a good brow kit, or pop into your local salon, and go big. I recommend Eylure for brow products, but a microblading session or home remedies like castor oil, Vaseline, lemon, and other brow growth hacks are also worth a try.
