MANGO’s Spring Collection has already hit the stores, and with it, lots of ideas for creating fresh, feminine and flattering looks. But this collection inspires a lot more, including make-up and hair suggestions that have been spotted on the catwalk.

Make-up is all about skin, with very natural nude finishes, but this does not mean that it isn’t skilful. Quite the contrary, concealer and a good foundation will help you hide blemishes to give your complexion an even tone and texture.

Very soft colours in natural shades enhance lids and lips. But you should add a touch of luminosity by using a highlighter on the inner eye corners and a touch of lipgloss.

For some time now, it’s been possible to buy more than just street clothes at MANGO. Along with jeans, tops, shoes and party dresses, you’ll also find pyjamas, nightdresses and underwear in stores. Now that it’s in fashion to wear underwear and nightwear as part of your “daily uniform” it’s not a bad idea to have some nice outfits for lounging about.

The most popular shades for spring-summer 2010 are pastels and dusty colours.

Overdoing the food during the holidays, smoke, alcohol and late nights have a very negative effect on your body, particularly on your skin. Now that Christmas is over it’s time to get to work and nurse your skin back to health.

In addition to all the creams and treatments on the market, natural products are also our allies. Here you have three face masks you can prepare at home for very little and get great results.

Firstly: Happy New Year everybody! If you thought you wouldn’t have to put up with us on a day like today, you were very much mistaken. You should start this first day of the new decade in the mood for change.

Today, hangover permitting, is the time to make the evaluation we never did last night because we were too busy partying …

Although New Year resolutions are one of these things you never quite see through to the end, when it comes to style, there is less of an obligation. Without looking any further, last night could be seen as a mirror to look at yourself in… or not do it again. I’ll explain. New Year’s Eve is one of the most important dates on the calendar, and therefore a night you really glam up for. It’s also a night where you can overdo outfits, not just food and drink, and this is why it acts as a barometer of your style level throughout the year.

Although clothes and accessories are important for a party look, hairstyle and make-up are just as important. What’s more, if they’re not properly done, they can ruin even the nicest of dresses.

The stylists, make-up artists and hairdressers of MANGO campaigns know a lot about this and that is why we’ve taken a look at some of their creations, to recreate them this Christmas.

The first look can be seen on the gorgeous curvy Marie-Ange Casta. One of the rules of make-up is that you should do up your eyes or your lips, never both. Here all the attention is focused on those wonderful red lips, totally festive and sensual.

Many women are faithful to just one lipstick. That’s not how it is with me. I must admit that I’ve no idea how many lipsticks and lipglosses I have exactly, and this is a real pain when it comes to keeping my products tidy and finding the one I want. If I was a one-lipstick woman, I just wouldn’t have this problem!

You can buy storage systems for lipsticks and other make-up products but here at MANGO THINK UP we have a suggestion for you to make your own lipstick customised storage system to measure, and of course, it will cost you a lot less!

Here’s a video for you from EnKoreMakeup explaining step-by-step how to make an organiser for lipsticks. All you need are some cardboard boxes, scissors, sellotape, a ruler and a felt-tip pen. It’ll take a while but with a bit of patience you’ll see brilliant final results. Your lipstick organisation will look very professional!

The rock style is one of the biggest trends for Autumn-Winter 2009/2010. You’ve already had some clues and suggestions for creating the look, but there’s still one little detail missing: the perfume.

Lady Rebel, the new fragrance by MANGO, is the ideal accessory to this style inspired by rock stars. It’s elegant, feminine and sophisticated, but also provocative, passionate and vibrant. It’s full of contradictions!

The tough, rebellious and provocative style of the rock look doesn’t mean you have to give up on femininity and sensuality. All these contradictions are summed up in the name of the fragrance: Lady Rebel.

A few days ago we showed you MANGO’s latest trends for this Autumn-Winter 2009/2010 collection, brought to you by Montag and Scarlett Johansson. Just like we did for the actress’s first collaboration with the Spanish brand, here we examine her make-up so that you can copy it easily at home.

It’s discreet and very flattering, using mainly browns and nudes, and the focus is on the eyes. This make-up will suit you no matter what your hair and eye colours are, as it uses rather neutral shades. It’s also very versatile, so it’s very easy to match to clothes.

The eyeshadow shades used aren’t too intense or bright. You should use a beige base colour for the entire lid and then apply a mink-coloured eyeshadow over it, insisting especially on the crease to give the look more depth. Both these shadows must be matte.

And it’s exactly the same with hairstyles and haircuts. Their styles are copied by many who want to somehow reproduce them. Hairdressers know this and so do we. That is why we are going to talk about some of the main hairstyles, to get some tips for winter. Read more…

Halloween is almost here and you know it. The one thing you know for sure is that even after all these years you have no idea how to wear your make-up and make the most of it, while looking different. Now that you’ve said bye to masks you can look perfect with your favourite colours.

 There’s no need for you to make up as a monster, all you have to do is make the most of your features using basic eyeshadows. Have a rummage through your make-up bag and try out a few looks. Read more…
