Swide Magazine by Dolce&Gabbana

We're ever so bored of hearing about the fifteen hours of sleep, and seven pots of cream we should apply at night. What happened to being dramatic, alluring, sensual and mysterious in the evening? Dolce & Gabbana's latest flash collection is bringing the glamour back.

Once upon a time in all glamorous black and white films, the heroine puts on a silk dress and heels and off she went to paint the town red. After what seems like an eternity of films featuring women feeling sorry for themselves on the sofa in jogging pants - we've decided we've got better things to do than mope at home. It's time to bring a sensuous glamour back to the night - and we're going to tell you how.

Dolce & Gabbana's latest flash line for their make-up collection is called 'The Night Collection' and mixes the allure of the night with the signature glamour of Dolce & Gabbana's Mediterranean flavour.

Forget cucumber slices and eye masks, to create really alluring eyes - opt for Dolce & Gabbana's THE EYESHADOW QUAD in NIGHT, team with THE EYELINER in black working it into the lash-line. For a really wide-eye effect 8and this we suggest if you intend to stay out later than 1am...), use the black eyeliner along the upper and lower lash line only on the outer 2/3rds of the eye.

To refine the eyeliner, add a light blue from THE EYESHADOW DUO in Sky followed by Silver from the NIGHT EYESHADOW QUAD using a moist applicator to the triangular area above and below the tear duct.

To ensure your eyes really do meet across a crowded room, apply a thick coat of THE MASCARA in black on both the upper and lower lashes.

To ensure lips pout like a film star define them using THE LIPLINER in Dahlia remembering to partially fill in the lips so that it blends smoothly with the lipstick

The only choices a girl should be making after 8pm...Is whether she wants a "film noir" or a "screen siren" look.

To achieve a “film noir” effect, apply THE CLASSIC LIPSTICK in Dahlia, whereas if it's a “screen siren” look you hanker after, apply THE SHINE LIPSTICK in Dahlia.

For an additional 3-D effect use a touch of THE SHINE LIPSTICK in Gold on the cupids bow of the upper and lower lips - we guarantee gentlemen will be queuing up to buy you drinks.

 

You may have had a hard day at work - but nobody wants to know (listen) - so opt for a sweep of THE BRONZER in Desert starting at the temples and sweeping down towards the centre of your face adding definition to cheekbones and a glow that doesn't scream air-conditioning.

Brighten the apples of your cheeks with THE BLUSH in Provocative, blending inwards from the cheekbones following the natural contour of your (now permanent) smile.

 

Complete the vamp look with a coat of THE NAIL LACQUER in Dahlia for a hint of the erotic or alternatively in Nude if you'd rather let your face do the talking.
