You’ll remember Trinny Woodall from when she and co-host Susannah Constantine were telling us What Not to Wear in the 00s – dominating our TV screens with brutally honest fashion advice and jaw-dropping transformations.
Fast forward to now and she’s turned her eye from flattering fashion to make-up, launching her own range, Trinny London, in the UK in October 2017 and now shipping worldwide.
Her little pots of easy-to-wear, finger-applied pigments have been causing big waves, so we were happy to sit down for a chinwag about her unique beauty approach and her golden advice for make-up application.
Trinny tip #1: Do less with bronzer and more with blusher
In terms of make-up overall, Trinny believes “less is more”. One thing she thinks we’re all overusing? Bronzer.
She tells, “I like blusher more than bronzer. I love how it brings out the colour of an eye, so I always tend to go more towards blusher.
“But people who love bronzer won’t stop using it, so we have a gel that you just put on at the end as opposed to starting your face with it.”
Trinny tip #2: Adapt your look as you change
When it comes to your make-up habits, Trinny says that in her experience “the decade in which you first discovered make-up is a decade you might stick to for a bit too long”.
