Pure brilliant white - Blumarine
by Beauty Editor Jessica Hopper
Chalky, snowy brilliance and lime-washed, marblesque modernity. White is a key un-colour for this season and, as the key focus of your palette, will immediately bring your look bang up to date. Try a sweep of block white shadow for a graphic bold eye or, for the less beauty brave, a smidge of white kohl or shimmering luminous skin for fresh faced purity...
