    Peony's Gold Rush

    Gold is a true universal shade which warms up and brightens all skin tones. Traditionally used in bronzey, beachy looks, Kay ignored the convention in her irreverent way and plied Peony's eyes with layers of gold, edged it in rock n' roll black and then sprinkled the whole lot in flashy holographic glitter. Take the look as far as you like it but to give the look depth, layering products is key. Start with a cream to create an opaque base of colour, top with powder to add extreme shimmer and pigment and then rain down the glitter. The sparkle will go everywhere, but embrace it as part of the look and shine on.

    Tallulah's Dancer in the Dark

    Often described as the cruellest of the performing arts, ballet is nothing short of ruthless determination and perseverance in the face of apparent physical improbability. Kay Montano creates a strong graphic look to reflect the inner steel of Tallulah Harlech's dark ballerina. Channelling the possessed tragic heroines of "The Red Shoes" as well as "The Black Swan" this look is all about precision and strength: severe brows, sharply contrasting black and white eyeliner and uncompromising deep red lips. Anyone who thinks ballerinas are as serene and delicate as their performance appears, should prepare to have their misconceptions strung up on their pointes.

    Peony Dares To Go Bare

    It's you... on a warm, radiant day. With skin glowing from a good night's sleep and relaxed lifestyle you might not have, this natural beauty make-up showcased by Peony is the ultimate stealth health look. Thank you make-up gods for bronzer, soft textured eye shadows and Kay Montano for showing us how to fake it.

     

    To keep the look bare: skip contrasting colours and look to the shades found in your own skintone and colouring. Well prepped skin is a must, so take some time to find a foundation with the colour, texture and coverage that you need. As for the rest, avoid any edges or strong lines and use your fingertips as the best blending tools to pat and smooth out colour around the eye or dab on lipstick.
