Flare Essentials app for iPhone and iPad

Classic beauty looks never become outdated. From a dramatic, smoky eye to lush curls with volume, film and fashion icons have mastered the styles that resonate with women of all ages. And now you can create these looks yourself, no matter where you are.

The free Flare Essentials app includes 20 how-to beauty videos highlighting classic looks created by hair and makeup experts. Each look is broken down to the basics so that even a beginner will be able to recreate it. Based on the style of icons like Marilyn Monroe, Naomi Campbell and Gwyneth Paltrow as well as up and comers like Emma Stone and Diane Kruger, the app is designed to take you from fresh-faced morning to evening glamour.

A step-by-step photo gallery accompanies each video for fast review with one swipe and you can save your favourites for easy reference at the tap of a finger.
