And finally
* Foiled Eyes: Modern Metallics.
Over Champagne and canapés, Tony shared some tips and tricks on how to stay on trend this season.
He controversially suggested to use lip liner after applying lipstick especially to those unpracticed in applying a statement lip. Tony explained that it can be quite daunting to try and apply a clean line with a lip pencil to bare lips, that rather it can be used to 'clean up' a lipstick application from the bullet. The look was demonstrated with a bold orange/red lip. Tony suggested alternatives to this look. For the colour-shy he recommended applying a balm and then lip pencil over the top to create a more subtle stain. He also suggested for those with pale skin to try more of a coral than bright orange/red.
Sigourney was unsure of Tony's suggestion to skip moisturiser/face oils before applying makeup for an event (personally, I was in the same boat- I LOVE a good face oil), he defended this by theorising it would give your makeup more staying power. He also promoted the use of a hydrating facemask to use the night before an event to eliminate the need to moisturise before applying your makeup to help it 'grab'.
Other great tips included embracing face powders, particularly very light-weight, fine powder for setting your makeup such as NARS loose powder. Tony also praised cream to powder highlighter, NARS Multiple, in South Beach or Copacabana.
If there was one standout feature to take away from the evening it was the use of the Stilla Magnificant Metals Foil Finish Eye Shadow in the Foiled eyes demonstration. It's a great product to update any eyeshadow look, easy to use and you only need the smallest amount to pull off 'chic and modern'. I can't wait to get my hands on the Metallic Merlot shade, it's to die for ♥
