Caroline shares her tips on creating the ‘Sports Chic’ beauty look
1. Start with a flawless, glowing base by using Max Factor Lasting Performance Foundation. To perfect blemishes where you need extra coverage or for top up perfection,
use Max Factor Miracle Touch Foundation.
2. Add a touch of Max Factor Miracle Touch Creamy Blush across your cheekbones towards your hairline to create a sophisticated glow.
3. Next, use Max Factor Eyebrow Pencil in Hazel to add definition to your brow. The brush on the end will help shape your brows and remove any excess foundation.
4. Use Max Colour Effect Trio Eye-shadow in Coco Crazy to play with light and dark tones. Place the darkest tone in the socket for wide eyes, or underneath the lower lashes to make small eyes bigger.
5. Add Masterpiece Colour Precision Eyeshadow to the inner corner of the eye to add a beautiful light and brightness to the eye.
6. Use Liquid Effect Pencil in Violet Voltage on the outer corners of the top and bottom lashes; blend outwards with the rubber end to create a feline shape to your eyes.
7. Finish the eye look by coating the lashes with two coats of False Lash Effect Gold Mascara.
8. Complete the look with Max Colour Effect Lip Gloss in Romantic and Max Colour Effect Mini Nail Polish in Ivory.
