What are the current make-up trends that you endorse?

I am not someone who follows trends but what we must look out for is natural make-up, contouring and eye shadow. I don’t understand this sudden love for red eyeshadow. My training is in theatrical make-up and if we wanted to make a character look like an alcoholic or sleep-deprived, we would put some red on the eyes.

How should one choose make-up?

What I like to do is look at a woman and see the natural colours on her skin. To me, a woman looks most beautiful if her make-up enhances her natural beauty.
