Good beauty advice is hard to come by these days.

Are they worth the time, money, and effort? TV make-up artist Carmindy believes that the secret to a great look is to focus on the positive: learn how to enhance your best natural features with sheer washes of colour rather than hide under layers of artificial-looking makeup.
