Wild and defined brows

A successful makeup look is all about the finer details… And not just any details. We are talking about eyebrows. The one element of your face that you should always remember to give extra care and attention to. As the cliche goes, eyes are the windows to the soul and eyebrows are their frames. Here are two items that one of our #legend100 influencer swears by:

• Refy Brow Sculpt (via Net-A-Porter)
• Benefit Goof Proof brow powder

Natural skin

We are truly enamoured by the rise of “skin-finish” face makeup, which avoids heavy under-eye baking while still concealing any signs of fatigue. These products fulfil their purpose without overtly resembling traditional cakey foundation.
