Makeup guide: Summer eyes

1. This is a great summer look that accentuates eyes - the rest of the face should be neutral. Start with a layer of primer to give a nice matt surface. Take a brush and pack on gold eye shadow - Mac Pigment in yellow gold is really vibrant - to just above the eye crease, then take a blender brush and, starting from the outer corner, blend in along the lid.

2. Use your finger to dab a small amount of primer below your eye. Take a dark green eye shadow - I've used Mac Humid - and, using an angled liner brush, sketch a line from the outer edge. Photograph: Hong Gyoung Tae

3. To give glow, I've taken a creamy eyeliner pencil - Let's Twist by Gosh - and drawn it along the waterline. Give definition with a coat of mascara - to lower lashes, too. We're aiming for wispy, defined lashes. Photograph: Hong Gyoung Tae

4. Finally, give one coat of lip gloss. I've used a tea-coloured one by e.l.f. - Hypershine in Cotton Candy - which doesn't look too shimmery. Add a dusting of light bronzer for an even fresher look. Photograph: Hong Gyoung Tae
