Ashley Roberts looked beautiful last week

Ashley Roberts is a natural beauty - we know that after her time in the Celebrity Jungle, but she also scrubs up pretty well too. 

Last week at the Military Awards in London she showed off her beautiful tan with a classic smoky eye and dark red lip created by Max Factor make-up artists Caroline Barnes. 

Here we have the tips to help you recreate Ashley's gothic red carpet look:  

SKIN: Since been in the jungle Ashley’s fresh youthful skin has been celebrated so it’s important her skin looks young and luminous.

Using your fingertips, apply Max Factor Ageless Elixir 2 in 1 Foundation + Serum to create a light and natural finish. The great thing about this foundation is that it still gives full coverage, but the serum will help to keep your face moisturised.

Apply Max Factor Miracle Touch Creamy Blush in Soft Copper onto the apples of the cheeks to add a healthy glow.

EYES: Ashley’s classic smoky eye balances out her gothic lip and enhances her brown eyes.

To fill in the brows and frame your face try Laura Mercier Eye Brow Pencil in Blonde for a natural yet defined look that opens up your eyes.

Next, apply Christian Dior Gloss eyeshadow in Tan across the whole of your lid, taking care to blend seamlessly into your skin for a flawless finish. Line your eyes with Liquid Effect Pencil in Black Fire, using the built in smudger to create a smokey effect.

Apply Clump Defy Volumising Mascara really build up your lashes for dramatic volume - Clump Defy is perfect for this because you can load and load and it just won’t clump!

LIPS: Ashley’s strong, vampy lip is the focal point of her look, and she certainly pulls it off! The gothic, dark romance lip trend is key look for A/W 12.

If you’re feeling brave, you can recreate Ashley’s vampy red lip using Giorgio Armani Lip Maestro in Dark Velvet.  If a bright pop of colour is more your thing, try Max Factor Colour Elixir Lipstick in Ruby Tuesday for the same colour intensity.
