Neutralize them bags

Too many late nights? Hide dark circles using a peach or orange concealer – this neutralises the dark blueness and also works well for covering up dark pigmentation. Apply in an inverted triangle and then use your foundation over the concealer.

LOV your primer

Primer is the key to getting your make-up to stay put for longer. It acts as a barrier between your skin and your foundation, and fills in fine lines and wrinkles, creating a smoother surface and a more youthful appearance. Check out LOV mattifying primer for long-lasting fabulousness!

Make it pop

If you’re filling in your brows with powder, set them with a brow gel and then use concealer to clean up around the brow to make them pop.
