How to do Bond girl skin

If you’re looking to flaunt some impressive looking skin this Christmas, then look no further than the Michael Kors Body Collection. He certainly knows how to keep a girl very happy! There’s no hiding of limbs and decollete when it comes to party dressing, so a well dressed skin is essential for that all important reveal!

For an indulgent soak, fill the bath and sprinkle in a handful of Shimmer Bath Beads. Warm water releases the fragrant notes, scenting your mood to feel good. These super luxe popcorn like beads dissolve to leave a decadent veil of gold on top of the water. Bath time just got special. The Indulgent Body Crème, is just that – indulgent. Looking like a pot of  dive-in-now Greek yoghurt, this lightly scented crème moisturises and nurtures the skin without cloying,  giving a lovely dewy effect. For the body encore, my favourite is the Liquid Shimmer Dry Oil Spray. For a sexy and luminous sheen, shake the bottle cocktail style to blend the tiny golden particles into the oil, and smooth onto the front of the legs,  arms and collarbone.  Skin is Instantly up-swung into one that glimmers and shimmers. I can’t  help but feel Kors’s mission is to turn everybody in a Bond girl. Those in her presence are left shaken and stirred!

Michael Kors Beauty Collection

Having posted last week about the new fragrances from Michael Kors, I thought I’d do a sequel and follow it up with his new Beauty Collection. And beautiful it is. A go-to list of key products created to achieve fresh bronzed skin, bold nails and kissable lips, it’s a collection that screams effortless style. This is a small edit in comparison to other colour lines, but what you don’t get in quantity, it certainly makes up for in quality. Here’s the lowdown:  

Lips: Colour saturated and beyond luxurious, the three Lip Luster lipstick bullets are twisted up seductively from a gold case. For lips wanting a lighter slick, the three Lip Lacquer glosses in matching shades are great for swiping on-the-go. With names such as Sexy Bombshell and Glam Dame, lips are anything but boring.

Nails: Fingertips instantly look high-end with a brush of classy colour. The six must-wear shades span from pale nudes to deep ebony. Pick one to match your mood.

Bronzers: Resort radiant skin is what every complexion craves and now it’s achievable out of season! Fabulously over sized in chunky gold compacts, the shimmering pigment is milled ultra-fine so it leaves skin looking lightly sun-kissed and sexy. Pick from three shades including Sporty Glow, Sexy Flush and Glam Beam.

Lip Luster lipsticks, £21

Lip Lacquer glosses, £23

Nail Lacquer, £15

Bronze Powder , £34

Fragrance to upswing your mood

What’s your mood today? If you’re anything like the Michael Kors woman you would never feel grumpy. You would be Sporty, Sexy or Glam. That’s what I love about fragrance – the pure escapism of it! The new scent seducers from Michael Kors certainly don't do downbeat. The collection comprises of three upbeat and happy making fragrances that accentuate moods we would always like to find ourselves in!

So what’s the nuances that separate Sporty, Sexy and Glam? Well, sporty as you would guess is crisp and citrusy with orange and mandarin upfront whilst warm woods and white florals linger in the background. Sexy auditions amber as its main player seductively wrapped in sandalwood and musk, and Glam uses Kors’ beloved floral note jasmine to create a red carpet moment. Beautifully bottled with each one uniquely coloured, I wouldn’t be surprised if all three were purchased in one swoop just in case you changed your mood. Certainly a woman’s prerogative!

Michael Kors Sporty, Sexy and Glam retail from £38 for 50ml.

In stores at selected House of Fraser stores from September 18^th and nationwide.
