Sweeping a powder product over her lids, Mellissa revealedshe was actually applying Benefit’s cult Hoola Lite Bronzer. 'I use it as an eyeshadow – it’s so so natural you can hardly see it but it’s so nice,’ she reveals.
When Sophie goes on to say she likes a ‘dewier’ finish, Mellissa explains how using powder bronzer as an eyeshadow helps to stop her eyeliner and mascara from transferring onto her eyelids - genius.

‘I don’t like a dewy eye because my mascara then transfers onto my eye lid,’ she explains. ‘We can use the real word – oily – I have oily eye lids.’
Mellissa finishes off her eye look by sweeping a darker shade of eyeshadow along her lash line – as a softer alternative to liner – before applying mascara.
