What a beauty-full year it's been! 2012 saw many of our most stylish stars setting brand new trends, from hot pink lips to the bold brow championed by our very own Duchess.

Long lashes, smoky eyes and lashings of red lippie also played their part with famous faces including Angelina Jolie, Kristen Stewart and Penelope Cruz helping establish some of the year's top beauty crazes.

And we were even shown how to work the tricky 'natural look' courtesy of our red carpet favourites Blake Lively and Kate Winslet.
