Been in a makeup rut lately? Dying to get your newly-cleaned brushes out and play with your vast makeup collection but don’t know which makeup looks to create? Here, we give you 4 sizzlin’ hot looks courtesy of MAC Spring/Summer ’10 trend. This isn’t your typical Spring or Summer look as it’s slightly more daring and bold.

Sonia Rykiel
MAC tips:
- Use Kohl Power Eye Pencil in Orpheus, drawn along top lash line and blended out with 239 brush
- One coat of black mascara swept onto curled lashes
- Use tinted moisturizer to even out skin tone and set with powder only on the centre of the face to minimize shine
