We love the way that Liz wore her make-up for her wedding - here is how to re-create the look:
For that Bridal flawless skin look, start with a light weight foundation across the cheeks, under the eyes, tip of the nose and chin, and blend well. Line the inside of your eyes with new<id cosmetics i-line in Black www.newidcosmetics.com/products/eyes/i_-_line and use a shimmering green liquid eye shadow over the eyelid, and run a little under the eye, and finish with plenty of mascara.
Apply the rose colour from new<id cosmetics i-blush trio to the apples of the cheeks and blend upwards. Line your lips with i-define lip liner in Nude www.newidcosmetics.com/products/range and finish with a slick of the new lipstick from new<id, i-pout in Pink Bliss.
For that golden glow, don’t forget to sweep everybody’s favourite bronzer, i-bronze in Rio all over your face with a big powder brush www.newidcosmetics.com/products/face/bronzer_powder

It's spring and the sun is shining, and so can your hair!
We caught up with Artistic director Yuki Fung. She told us that this season's hair is all about glossy, shiny and glittery blonde locks, creating natural-looking sunkissed hair. It's always great to go lighter as summer draws closer, and blonde hair should look super shiny, healthy and silky. It's all about the multi dimension blonde, the blonde that looks expensive as silk. You can add warmth or cooler shades of blonde to suit your face, mood and colourings, from platinum to caramel.
Yuki recommends you wash your hair with Redken's Blonde Glam Shampoo and Conditioner. Then add a leave-in treatment, Crystal Fresh or serum, Purple treatment, 'Pure pearls' for platinum blondes and 'Fresh Gold' for more caramel, honey blondes.
To achieve this look, pop down to Burlingtons www.burlingtonshair.com and let our expert stylists and technicians create your blonde ambition!
Hello, it has been another amazing month at new<id cosmetics. The team have been out in Italy for the cosmetics show Cosmoprof.
This was a great opportunity for us to find the most beautiful products and packaging to bring to all you lucky people. I would love to tell you about all the new exciting products that we have now created as a result of the show but its all top secret. We will be revealing all our amazing new products in the next few weeks so keep your eyes peeled!
While I was in Italy, it always fascinates me to see how many of the ladies are into wearing stronger lip colours compared to us Brits. We are certainly seeing more of a trend for lip colour on the catwalks so to coincide with that this month we are very excited to launch a range of lipsticks called i-pout.
Top tip: if you fancy wearing a lipstick play down your eye make-up for balance, go on give it a go.
See you next month
