The Summer Essentials palette works fabulously as a summer colour combination as the new shades sit perfectly alongside each other, so that a look can be put together with just one shade, two, three or even all four colours together.

For an understated daytime look, Vanilla Shimmer as a base colour, with Miami Taupe adding depth is a perfect combination, as is a base of Vanilla Shimmer with Honey Peach emphasising the inner and outer corners for a truly barely there, but softly shimmering finish.

For a stronger look, try a base of Miami Taupe, shading the outer corners with Moonlight; another gorgeous combination.

Additionally, highlighting the inner corners with Vanilla Shimmer gives an even more glamorous finish.

For the utmost golden goddess look, combine a Honey Peach base with Moonlight shading, resulting in a lovely warm glow perfect for the summer.

The launch of our new Lily Lolo Summer Essentials eyeshadow collection, featuring four new eyeshadow shades, Vanilla Shimmer, Honey Peach, Miami Taupe and Moonlight are the perfect colours for the summer months.

British Vogue described nudity as the strongest trend for Spring Summer 2010/11; silks, layers and softly shimmering chiffons have dominated the catwalks for the season. Colours are calm, sensual and soft with focus on pearlescent shades in ice-cream colours, peaches, creams and subtlety of tone. Skin is flawless, lightly shimmering with a soft focus finish. 

The Spring Summer collections from the world’s highest profile designers show the trend to the fullest. There was layer upon layer of vintage chiffon to be seen on the catwalks at Stella McCartney and Karl Lagerfeld.

The four new eyeshadows from Lily Lolo are truly inspired and on trend as absolute makeup bag must haves for everyone this summer.
