Makeup artist Andrew Gallimore described the look he created for Holly Fulton's show as "sexy, sophisticated and Lady Chatterley inspired", with come-to-bed eyes and flushed cheeks as the focus.

He used Mac Studio Sculpt Foundation, Mineralize Concealer and Prep + Prime Pressed Powder on the skin before filling in the eyes with Cream Colour Base in Midtone Sepia. Coffee Pencil added definition and False Corner Lashes were applied with a coat of Plushlash Mascara in Plushblack for the doe-eyed look.

Fluidline in Blacktrack and Dipdown was worked into the brows while Sculpting Cream and Blush Creme created the "embarrassed teenage boy" look.

Gallimore also raved about the new must-have palette for the season from Mac. He applied the pummy pink French Nougat from this on the lips for a romantic finish.

Over on the hair side, stylist Shon used L'Oreal Professional products to create "sexy and free hair. Above all, this is a fun loving woman with a real free spirit", he told us backstage.

Shon prepped the hair by drying with L'Oreal's Techni Art Volume Lift from roots to ends, before using a small curling tong to create a twisted unkempt curl. These curls were then brushed out through using fingers instead of a brush and sprayed with L'Oreal's Techni Art to loosen them up.

Finally, the hair is tied into a loose ponytail before being rolled up into a carefree style and put into place with hair pins.
