SELFRIDGES & CO, MR DANIEL MAXWELL, GOOD JOB.

Go to any beauty counter and you will be overwhelmed by the choice of eye make up. Shadows of every hue, creams of every texture, kohl pencil to give you that exotic look, eye liner for dramatic effect and lashings and lashings of mascara in every colour of the rainbow and every size brush, wand and comb.
