Highly pigmented, the four shades all come with a smudger tip to create the coveted smokey eye effect. Available HERE for £14 each.

LASH IT TO EM’
Louis Vuitton championed doll like beauty at the enchanting SS12 catwalk show. Models wore lengthy falsies and lashings of mascara to complete the girly look. However, false lashes on a daily basis can be expensive, not to mention the glue doesn’t always fare well in hotter weather. Why not fake the false look with hardworking mascara? Benefit’s brand new They’re real! lengthens, curls, volumises, lifts and separates. What is more, the formula is long wearing and won’t smudge or dry out! The specially designed brush also gets into all the little lashes so you can really give everyone an eyeful. Available HERE for £18.50.
