CAROLINE BARNES
MAX FACTOR MAKE UP ARTIST
“Glitter of any shade looks beautiful at a wedding if applied in a very understated way. My favourite areas to apply glitter are with a very small brush in the inner corner of the eye and in the centre of the lid. The sparkle in the inner corner has a beautiful brightening effect on the eyes. Adding glitter to the centre of the lid allows a soft ash effect of light to come through every time you blink.”
