Gallery Update - Lily Allen for Glamour

I’m VERY happy to see how nicely my new Glamour cover of Lily Allen has turned out. I’ve worked with Lily before including another Glamour cover about a year ago, I think (time flies!) The best thing about working with Lily is that she loves fashion, hair, make-up and everything connected with dressing up. I can see why designers love her as she has a genuine passion for the clothes.

On a make-up note, all the inspiration photos the creative director brought to the shoot were of a young Bridgette Bardot. As I’ve always done Lily with bright lips previously I decided to go for a very pale lip and skin (only a touch of peachy blush and shimmery highlighter on her face. On her eyes I did a very restrained ‘kitten eye’ black liquid eyeliner (by Mac) and lots of feathery individual eyelashes to give a flirty eye that had a certain lightness to it. I think she looks extremely pretty, fresh and very young in the shots, which were definitely finished off perfectly by the unbelievably cute bulldog puppy. We all had a little cuddle of him and both Lily and I could have quite happily taken him home (not sure what my cat would have made of that!).
