If I have on a bright red lip, you'll rarely ever catch me with eyeshadow on. It's one or the other for me - pick one feature for the day and really focus on that.

I really love a red lip, especially when I am feeling tired, as it brightens my whole face.

I definitely love the smoky eye, and when I do that, I like to do a nude lip so it draws attention to your eyes.

If I do want to wear a little bit of makeup, I really like a pink lip. There's one called Lip Mist in Pink Heather from Burberry that I love.

I envy those who can wear red lipstick or any bold lip colour, really. My top lip just doesn't seem to take colour - there's nothing I can do to change that, so I usually just use a nude on the bottom lip.

Makeup is about balance. When the eye makes a statement, the lips should be quiet.

The most versatile lipstick you can own is a shade that's just a bit brighter than your natural lip color.

I like smudgy black eyes and pale lips for evening. Red lipstick looks great on other girls, but it's too much on me.

The big question is always, 'Eyes or lips?' I tend to go with the eyes because I've got a lot more material to work with now - and it saves me from reapplying lipstick! I'm a pretty low-maintenance person and it's too excessive to exaggerate both the eyes and lips.
