As the New Year struts in, fashion always has a way of kicking it up a notch and make-up is officially every woman’s best friend.

So, here’s how to look your best in 2013 as cosmetic trends this year bring back lots of classical and trendy make-up styles, options and products for everyone....

Light eyeshadow with a touch of sparkle is going to be big this year. Some of the bright eyeshadow shades for Spring 2013 are blue and green, and these can be paired with crimson lips.

This year will also see sexy, powerful, dramatic eyebrows with strong, defined arches. The combination of bold brows with vibrant lips creates a very classic and versatile look which works well during both daytime as well as night.

Eyeliner with glitter is in too. You could opt for either thin or thick eyeliner — whichever suits you best.

Red lips are a huge make-up trend for 2013. But when you flaunt these, you must remember to keep the look consistent by opting for a more neutral eyeshadow. Experiment with coloured mascara to give your eyes an unexpected pop.

Shiny lips always look pretty and when flecked with shimmer they will merit top spot in your make-up case for 2013.

Bronzed and tanned make-up gives your face depth, definition and a beautiful sultry look. Every girl can carry this off with confidence.

Lustrous lashes are in and they are a fashion must-have to go from gorgeous to glamorous in seconds. Swipe on your favourite mascara and lengthen your lashes to its maximum and flutter like a butterfly!

Blush goes lush this year in shades of beige, coral, cool pink and peach. Just pick the shade that matches best with your skin tone.
