Discover the passionate experience that goes into the new innovatively handcrafted make-up collection. Your eyes, cheeks and face deserve pure, vibrant, shimmering make-up colours that last and last and last. Discover a collection of Baked-to-Last Colours, innovative eye duos, blushers and bronzers hand baked on terracotta discs for intense colour, incredible depth, rich coverage and long-lasting staying power. Every good baker has his own special and unique recipe, and just like the finest cordon bleu chef, this collection uses some of the finest ingredients. Each product is unique with freshly milled powders, pure pigments and gorgeous shimmers, slow baked to perfection for 24 hours. The pearls and pigments are bound together to create a smooth sheen of colour, offering you long-lasting performance. The unique formula is enriched with Community Trade organic olive oil from Italy and marula oil from Namibia, which, along with other natural botanicals and moisturizing oils, provides perfect blendability and easy application. The Baked-to-Last Colours’ craftsmanship is outstanding, handmade in Italy by local artisans and baked in small batches. The passionate experience that goes into each one produces an individual burst of colour and shimmer, so you can create your own gorgeously unique look. The collection is available in eight exciting duo shades for the eyes, two beautiful blushers and two natural-looking bronzing shades for the face, offering a complete look for the season. Each powder can be applied dry or, for added drama and richness of colour, with a wet brush. Plus the shades can be layered for increased depth and intensity, giving you a myriad of different make-up options.

Eye Colour

Have fun with these easy-to-use, multi-tasking eye duos that can take eyes from fresh and natural to sexy and intense in an instant. Each Baked-to-Last Eye Colour features a pure mono shade for a splash of dramatic colour together with a marble of black and shimmers that’s perfect for creating a smoky look, taking you from day to night. Choose from eight precious metallic and bold gem-stone shades and apply with The Body Shop® Smudger Brush or for more accuracy, with a Slanted brush. Try vibrant blue Shade 07: Sapphire, which looks sensational against every skin tone, or Shade 05: Sage Green, a sophisticated olive hue that’s totally in vogue. Or dare to indulge in Shade 08: Amethyst, an intense purple that’s perfect for creating this season’s sexy Goth chic look. With each shade, apply the mono shade across the lid for a pure wash of colour and then add the darker shimmer to the outer corners of the eye to deliver a dramatic evening eye-look.

Apply the shadows dry for a day look or to intensify the shades, apply the shadow using a wet eye shadow brush, creating rich, smouldering, smoky eyes.

Blush

Sweep on a fabulous flush of colour or create gorgeously contoured cheekbones. Choose from two pink and peachy palettes – 01: Petal and 02: Coral – each comprising two harmonising shades to colour and highlight. To apply, swirl The Body Shop® Blusher Brush across the two colours for a shimmering hit of colour that instantly warms up the face. To add light and definition, apply the darker colour to the apples of your cheeks and use the paler side to sweep above the cheekbones and over the brows.

Bronze

The Bronze is a mélange of three colours swirled and baked together to create the perfect light, shimmering summer glow. These subtle shades glisten, shine and highlight as they wrap around the contours of the face, neck and décolletage. Choose from the rich golden tones of Shade 01: Golden Bronze for medium to dark coverage, or the caramel hues of Shade 02: Warm Glow for light to medium coverage. Sweep The Body Shop® Face and Body Brush across the bronzer, softly smile, then blend onto the cheeks and up and along cheekbones, blending towards the hairline for a sheer wash of colour.
