Don't be afraid to dabble in this season's top beauty trend for glitzy, glamorous makeup – it’s time to be bold with gold.
Here are three ideas for injecting a dash of dazzle into your usual beauty regime. They offer quick and easy ways to change up your hair, body and makeup with golden coloured hues. Just remember you can layer the look up for a more opulent effect, so start with a small sprinkling!
1. Use hair serum to smooth your finished style? Then add in some loose gold glitter before applying it to give your hair a subtle sprinkling of party spirit.
2. When it comes to precious metals and opulence, there is no label quite like Christian Dior. The brand's got a magic gold powder that is one of the best for staying put (even when you don't!) and the sparkle effect achieved is delightfully golden. Diorskin Loose Powder in Gold Dust can be swept over your shoulders and décolletage, cheekbones and every other area you expose after dark. This is best for girls who fancy a luminous gorgeous glow like J-Lo's.
3. For a smokey eye with a seasonal golden twist start by applying on-trend plum eye shadow over your entire lid. Blend it up to the top of your brow bone then out into a dramatic overstated wing shape. Add a thick block of the shade to the bottom lash line. Then use a clean brush to add the brightest metallic gold luminous eye shadow into the centre of the eye at the top and bottom. A long-wearing creamy product works best here. Finish with lashings of black mascara. The shimmery gold and taupe shadows from Chanel's Quadra eyeshadow in Spices are a way to get the look. © Cover Media
