Timeless Beauty Secrets: Make-Up Hacks That Work All Year

Need a beauty hack? Here are some make-up tips that make life easier and your overall look better.

Raise your Brow: Define It!
If you want brows as strong as Cara Delevingne's arches. You can use mascara to accentuate your brow shape and conceal any patchy gaps. Go for a volume mascara for a full dramatic arch effect.

Conceal Dark Circles Without a Concealer
Dust a thin line of taupe (that's a greyish or deep purple metallic eye shadow) under your lower lashes to hide any bluish under eye circles. This is an insider trick if you're running low on concealer.

Get that Glow
Mix a pinch of metallic eye shadow into face lotion to warm your complexion. Try a copper or bronzer glow for a sun-kissed effect.

Plump Up your Lips and Pout
This is something a Geisha would do- dab sparkly eye shadow in the center of your lips to give that effect of fullness. The shimmer draws light so your lips seem to bow out naturally.

Jessica Chastain is the New Face of Yves Saint Laurent

Redhead powerhouse Jessica Chastain is the new face of the Yves Saint Laurent parfum called Manifesto.

In the new YSL ad campaign, Jessica gets messy in lavender.



And the manifesto on Manifesto? Well here's the blurb:
The manifesto of femininity by Yves Saint Laurent.
For women who invent their lives at every moment. Audacious, down to their contradictions and excesses. Above conventions, they create their own personal codes. For her nothing important is lived… 

In a statement to Women's Wear Daily, an executive at YSL attested that purple was "the color of absolute seduction for Mr. Saint Laurent." Nuff said. The use of purple paint in the Nicolas Winding Refn ad is just so righteous.

Moving House: YSL is Relocating Shops

With YSL's bid to rebrand also comes a change of address. Yves Saint Laurent is moving its famous ready-to-wear ateliers and ‘salons de couture’ to a 17th Century maison called L’Hôtel de Sénecterre located at 24 Rue de l’Université. And the 22,600 square feet townhouse fits well into YSL's history, as YSL'a Rive Gauche ready-to-wear line was named after the area. 

However, YSL's current head Hedi Slimane will still have his design studio in Los Angeles, where he is based while the YSL HQ remains on Avenue George V.in Paris.
