Frontcover AW12 preview

Frontcover are best known for picking up on the latest trends from the catwalk and turning them into a readily accessible kit, helping you easily create the same looks at home.

I'm no beauty boff and before I got the invitation to see their AW12 preview, I hadn't heard of Frontcover (sorry!). I did a little research before I went but still wasn't sure quite what to expect from the new collection.

Manicures were available at the preview using the Frontcover kits. 

The Frontcover AW12 range features 9 kits. Each kit has step-by-step instructions with photos of how to create a catwalk beauty look and they promise no cheating! Every look has only been created by the products contained in the kit, which is, very obviously, the way it should be.

One of the kits that caught my eye was the 'Kissogram' kit. It had loads of mini lipsticks in, a nude lipliner, a gold lip pencil, a retractable lip brush and also edible glitter. The kit demonstrated how to use the gold lip liner and also how to create ombre/two-tone lips; something I've never really thought to do before.

Another really smart kit was Frontcover's 'Colour to Go'. The kit features a click in eye-shadow compact so you can take different colours from the kit with you each time you go out.
