	Unleash your inner animal on your cheeks Brighten your cheeks with the shades of fall and as you welcome the New Year – go striking with bolder strokes of colour. Just pinching your cheeks may not be enough. Arm yourself with a good brush and brush those colours in.
	Let the eyes do the talking Work in the colours, try a bit of pop and mix it with some electric blue for a seductive pair of eyes. Use two brushes: one to blend, one to apply. Layer your colours and blend in the definitions. Wet your brushes for an extra oomph!
	Get plastic with your nails Remember to don some summer greens and brightness onto your nails and thank us when you get showered with compliments! Get your nails prepped up with nail cream and an excellent base coat. But in case you want to give your own nails a break, try some gorgeous extensions to get the right shade.
	Smack that bold pair of lips Purples, pinks and bright red…you can play with them all. Add an extra boost to the hues with a powder pigment. The trick is to apply your lipstick and press a tissue on it to take excess off. Do it a couple of times for the colour to set in, rub some more lipstick on your pout, touch it up with pigment powder and you are good to go. Not recommended for situations that involve a lot of kissing.
