Rob wanted a nice clean “Yardley” digestible sort of make-up look. I went for purple – soft purple is so very very Yardley in my mind. Purple is also used in a lot of “those” ads as purple’s one of those colours that suit most people and accentuate most eye colours.

Main make-up ingredients: MAC eyeshadow in “beautiful iris” and “parfait amour“, MAC pro lash mascara and MAC Studio Fix Fluid on her skin.
