Shine bright like a diamond with high contrast eyeshadow

High contrast eyeshadows hit the spotlight this autumn as our favourite beauty bloggers showed thousands how to master the trend. The trick is to combine a matte product to diffuse light with a hyper-shimmery shade to make your peepers pop. Boots offers an excellent range of eye makeup – browse the NYX Foil Play Cream Pigment Eyeshadow selection for everything from paint box bright colours to classic metallics.

It’s glitter but not as you know it

The sparkly stuff is back with a vengeance every festive season, but perhaps this season it’s time to try wearing it a little bit differently. After the spectacular Maison Margiela runway show set Instagram alight with the glitter lips trend this autumn, beauty addicts have been trying to recreate the look. Luckily, lookfantastic have made it easy to achieve with the easy-to-wear Ciaté London Glitter Flip Lipstick. It’s all you’ll need to be the belle of the ball.

Make getting ready a breeze with magnetic eyelashes

For anyone who’s ever struggled to fix their eyelashes in place while trying to simultaneously sip a prosecco and call the Uber, this trend is a veritable gift from heaven. Eliminating the need for sticky adhesive and reducing waste in one fell swoop, the false eyelash range from Beauty Bay features magnetic lashes which lock together at the lash-line with virtually invisible magnets. Giving you a budge-proof fit that doesn’t bust your budget.

Let your power lips do the talking

A bold red lip dominated the Alexander McQueen show this autumn, proving that classics are always an investment. Pare down the rest of your makeup for that Hollywood glam vibe or give this sophisticated look a winter spin and opt for a deeper shade of berry. You’ll find lipsticks from some of the best brands in the business tucked away in Fabled’s online collection just begging to be brought out to play.Shimmy into the spotlight with these top health and beauty bargains and start the New Year as you mean to go on – with the sass level raised to eleven.
