We loved Ella Henderson’s retro makeup look on Sunday night, so we asked the official X Factor make-up artist, Julia Carta, to explain exactly how to recreate this amazing look.

1) For a look like this it is essential to prepare your skin first. We gave Ella an Eve Taylor facial to loosen dead skin cells and smooth the skin surface. I then used Vita Liberata Skin Plumping Peptide Mist to regulate the pH level of her skin.

2) Next I applied Urban Decay Pore Perfecting Complexion Potion, giving it time to settle before I applied make-up.

Givenchy has revealed its exclusive collection of lipsticks created for Liv Tyler, the face of Givenchy make-up.

Sometimes we see something that is just so pretty we have to share it with you. And this is one of those times.

The Models Own Mirrorball box set is a collection of nail frostings - they're glitters that you can wear alone, or over a favourite nail colour.

As usual with Models Own, each shade has a fantastic name, so from left to right we bring you Hot Stuff, Boogie Nights, Freak Out, Dancing Queen, Disco Inferno.

We're always on the look out for a new nail trend, and we think this one will catch on fast.

Nail art is big news, but move over crackle, magnetic and caviar, we're in love with velveteen nails. Said to give the impression that you've 'dipped your fingers in fairy dust', this fab velvet coating comes in 12 colours.
