Beauty Trend – Champagne Makeup
If you’re a lover of Lanson or mad about Moët, you’ll love the trend that’s bubbling through the beauty world right now– champagne makeup! Having caught the catwalk’s latest look, Belle About Town’s brings you our top 5 champagne-coloured beauty buys, to give you the right amount of shimmer and shine without leaving you looking like an Academy Award!
Shimmer: Illuminate your natural beauty with Laura Geller’s swirl highlighter, £21, in the shade ‘gilded honey’. It’s innovative texture applies like a sheer powder but feels like a cream – which creates a translucent wash of luminous colour. It can be swept all over the face to leave a lovely champagne toned shimmer. But it from Debenhams
Lips: Try the Gloss Lip Crayon by Burt’s Bees in the shade ‘outback oasis’ to add a gentle pink champagne shimmer on your pout. This long- wearing formula glides on effortlessly. It is ultra-hydrating as it is enriched with a nourishing blend of Kendi Oil, Shea Butter and Jojoba Oil. The chubby crayon softens and protects, whilst infusing lips with eight-hour moisture to leave them smooth, supple and comfortable. Best of all no sharpening required – all you do is twist the bottom to release more product. Buy it from Feel Unique
Nails: Try Deborah Lippmann’s ‘Diamonds & Pearls’ Nail Polish, £16, if you want stunning nails. This iridescent colour glides on evenly and effortlessly. It also dries quickly for a long-lasting, and truly professional finish. Be sure to roll it gently between your palms before using it. And for best results, use a base coat and top coat. You can wear it alone or layer it over a darker shade to add a lovely shimmer. This glimmering pink-gold shade was used on actress Reese Witherspoon on the night she won her Oscar.

Bronzer: Try Bagsy’s Bronzed Brilliance Shimmer Bronzer, £20, and create a lit-from-within glow. Simply apply this light powder, which is inscribed with the feel good message “Glow and Inspire”. Brush it all over the face or in touches where the sun naturally hits, so across your cheeks, forehead and chin, and this will help warm your skin tone. The high performance formula contains micronized powder sourced from fresh water pearls, known to have a rejuvenating, skin smoothing, and softening effects. Best of all– for every bronzer sold, Bagsy will donate 15 per cent of the profits to Women for Women International, which supports women survivors of war. Buy it from Bagsy
Eyes: Achieve stunning eyes with Kiko’s Water Eyeshadow in the shade ‘champagne’, £7.10. This gives a lovely golden shimmer to the eyes and can be used both wet and dry.
