Donna Summers Dead 05

Less proved to be more on the spring/summer catwalks, with many shows featuring faces that were a picture of polished, nearly naked perfection. At Calvin Klein and Celine, the finish was unpowdered and slightly sheeny, with a delicate rosy flush, a look that was subtly matted down at ChloƩ. Shade-wise, pale can be distinctly interesting, while bronzy shades may be used to sculpt the cheeks sharply.

Prep your skin peachy. Use Garnier PureActive Exfo-Brusher Wash to loosen dead skin cells and maintain a super-smooth surface.

Before making up, cleanse skin scrupulously, then apply a foundation that seamlessly evens up skin tone, such as Maybelline Dream Creamy Foundation. Blend from the middle of the face outwards, so none strays into the hairline.

Alternatively, use an air light concealer such as Maybelline Dream Mousse Concealer to hide areas of high colour or shadows, tapping it on lightly and blending well.

For a sheeny finish, leave well alone. If you feel too shiny, dust your complexion with a subtle veil of Rimmel Silky Loose Face Powder.

Swirl Collection 2000 Blush on the apple of your cheeks. For a more sculptured look, sweep on a bolder stroke of colour from George Bronzing Compact under the cheekbones, working outwards and upwards and blending well. Team with caramel and taupe shades on eyes - apply the lightest hue on the eyelid and a darker shade in the socket line and under the lower lashes.

Who says summer lips have to stay au naturel? Lips were orange bright and vinyl glossy at Sonia Rykiel and Prada, cutely coral at Moschino and Missoni and in the pink at Marc by Marc Jacobs.

Don't over-line lips, especially with a crayon - it looks too hard-edged for laid-back spring/summer. Instead, use a lipbrush loaded with colour from the lipstick you're going to use, then fill in. Blot and reapply for extra staying power. Try a lipstick with a voluptuous texture, such as George Moisturising Lipstick or Maybelline Moisture Extreme Lipcolor.

Alternatively, use a neutral lipstick that's a shade or two deeper than your natural lip colour, then add a glaze such as Rimmel Stay Glossy Lipgloss or Collection 2000 Pure Gloss Sheer Lipgloss in a bright, zingy shade over the top. This gives lips 3-D depth and youthful juiciness.
