Monikh’s Party Mood

With her decisive style and inspiring approach to dressing, we wanted ICONS girl Monikh’s take on how to approach festive make-up. While we would ordinarily be swiping on a bold lip and dusting on the sparkle, her minimalist approach this year has really inspired us. Here, she shares her 2020 party mantra: less is more.

By Monikh Dale

Nars

Single Eyeshadow, Noumea£13.60

“I like to keep my face relatively bare, and then add warmth to my eyelids and cheeks with Nars’ Noumea Eyeshadow. I love a tonal face, and using the same product in a few areas gives your complexion a more natural sun-kissed appearance.”

Charlotte Tilbury

Matte Revolution Lipstick – Walk of No Shame£25

“By keeping the rest of my face neutral, the entire focus will be on this burgundy lipstick by Charlotte Tilbury. The party season is the perfect time to swap subtle shades for a bold lip, which will elevate the simplest of dresses.”

CND Vinylux

Oxblood Nail Varnish£9.37

“At the start of winter, I say farewell to crisp white nails and switch to Oxblood by CND. It’s the perfect burgundy (with more brown than red) for those nights spent sipping a big glass of red wine. I love that it’s also available as a gel polish.”

Ouai Haircare

Rose Hair and Body Oil£25

“A dark lip looks uber-chic with a sleek bun. To smooth flyaways, I spray on Ouai’s multi-tasking oil before styling, and extra if needed after. Not only does it add gloss, it also smells heavenly. I then smooth it over my body to make my skin glisten.”
