Ready for the sun? Whether you’re at the beach or hitting the streets, get that summer glow. We ask make-up expert Trinny Woodall for her top tips

“For the last 20 years, I’ve worked with women all over the world, helping them find the most flattering styles, the best skincare, and the most hard-working, perfectly matched, foolproof makeup. I would mix a stick foundation with a liquid, blend a lip tint with a gloss… mushing up colours and decanting them into little pots.

The big idea was born: a portable, versatile range of makeup, with colours to suit every woman.

Finally, after three years of experimenting, planning, developing formulas and state-of-the-art technology to pinpoint which makeup truly suits you, we created a line that will match each individual woman. You can even use our Match2Me® service that will find your perfect shade.”

My 5 golden rules

1 Only ever cover up your blemishes and imperfections when applying foundation, don’t feel you must cover your entire complexion

2 The best contour is when it looks just like a shadow on your face to enhance your cheekbones and not like you’ve piled on makeup 

3 Find products that are the right colour that you can use on your eyes, lips and cheeks. Mine are Munchkin Lip2Cheek

4 When doing a smokey eye, soften the edges of the smoke so you don’t make your eye look smaller

5 I like a really good undone strong lip, so I don’t use lip liner as it can look too overdone
