Trend to Try: High Shine Features

Thinking all things ‘rejuvenate’ like we here at SPICE? Well, here’s a trend to try to freshen up your beauty game: the high shine look that’s been seen sweeping the catwalks – the look to nail for Spring/Summer’15.

While the matte look has been en vogue for some seasons now, everything from lips to eyelids – even eye brows – have been given the lustrous look, with the trend spied on the runways at Thakoon, Proenza Schouler, Emilio Pucci, Marni, Balmain, Prada, Kenzo, Missoni, and more.

Get the Look: Thakoon’s High Shine Brows

A bit more sheen to your arches will help ‘frame’ the face and give your look that extra je ne sais quoi. Makeup artist for Nars, Diane Kendal gave models a fresh, sexy vibe at Thakoon’s show by creating a glossy brow and you will definitely rejeuvenate your party look, with these easy-to-acheive steps…

1. After you’ve completed your complexion (we’d suggest a minimal makeup look, as described here), brush all eye brow hair upward with an eyebrow grooming brush or a dry toothbrush.

2. Use tiny scissors to trim any hair tips that are sticking out, away or out of shape from the rest of your brows.

3. Apply clear Nars TripleX lip gloss (£19, here) and Oural Brow Gel (£16.50, here) to make brows appear shiny. Be sure not to coat too thickly for a stuck on look, and instead go for light wafts of the brush.
