MARIA COMPARETTO reveals the latest beauty news.
Great things are on the horizon for Armani cosmetics as British born make-up artist Linda Cantello has been appointed creative director for the line. She's set to transform this already very popular brand into something that all girls must have in their make-up bags whatever their budget. It's all very top secret at the moment but having spent many years as creative director at YSL then perfecting her own cosmetic line, Linda is set to surprise us with some new and exciting products!
I adore “Crema Nera” an amazingly luxurious and nourishing moisturiser made with volcanic minerals from the Mediterranean island of Pantelleria.
Giorgio Armani Crema Nera, £175, available at Selfridges (020 7318 2486)
If you have an oily complexion this new range of natural organic products by Jurlique will pleasantly surprise you. Citrus Silk Finishing Powder is a beautifully scented translucent loose powder made with natural citrus ingredients. It cleverly rebalances and absorbs oil leaving skin feeling fresh and radiant. A must have for your summer holiday handbag and a great product for those post workout touch-ups!

One thing in my make-up bag that I truly can’t be without is Chanel's Base Lumiere. It’s my miracle product! I always mix it into all my foundations and tinted moisturisers on the back of my hand before applying. It gives the skin a radiance and youthfulness like you’ve never seen. Its light reflecting properties even out imperfections and leaves the skin looking fresh and vibrant. A real celebrity secret!
Chanel Base Lumiere, £24, found at all major retailers nationwide.
