Autumn has truly set in and the fur coats, hats and gloves are coming out of the wardrobes. So to complement your Autumn/Winter wardrobe, you will need to update your make-up. Estée Lauder has a stunning new collection out this September that is bold and beautiful, while bringing a sophisticated chic look to your makeup. Pure Colour Violet Underground will add a striking glamour to your look, and is perfect for the dark colours of your winter wardrobe.
This limited edition collection features deep vibrant violet and fuchsia tones. If you have always loved the glam/rock style but felt you couldn’t quite pull it off, this Estée Lauder range brings luxury to the look, so you can be bold without going over-board. Cognac and Bordeaux work with neon brights in scarlet and crimson to create a rich, sensual palette. Strong pigments collide against a radiant satin complexion to give a modern, high-fashion feel.
You might not be used to using such daring colours, however we recommend all mums try out these exciting hues this Winter. If you have a party or event over the coming months, this Estée Lauder range will ensure even a simple LBD stands out with a luxurious make-up look.
If you want to highlight your eyes, try the Pure Colour Five Colour Eye Shadow Palatte in Violet Underground (£40). A mix of deep violet, crimson and fuchsia grounded with a pale pink and a powerful matte black shade at the centre. These colours can be applied wet or dry – wet will create a vibrant-chrome flash of colour, while dry will have a subtle shine. Also available is the Pure Colour Quick-Thick EyeLiner in Punker Black (£20) defines and lines eyes in a dramatic black ink. What we really love about this eyeliner is that it’s really easy to use, with its marker-like tip. So no more messy lines layered across your eyes.
If you love your lips and want to make them stand out, try the new Pure Colour Velvet Lipstick in Black Cassis and Violet Crush (£19.50). These deep shades have a matt finish in an ultra creamy lipstick. Or if you want more of a rich, glossy look, the Pure Colour Gloss in Chaotic Currant and Rebellious Violet (£17) are stunning with deep plum wine and dazzling violet shades. The crystal reflections give extraordinary impact.
If you want to incorporate these bold colours into your look, but would rather do it in a more subtle way, the Pure Colour Nail Lacquer in Black Iris (£14.50) is fabulous. The deep hue brings a violet twist to traditional black, and brings a bit of punk/rock to your Winter style.
