We're taking our beauty cues from the runways in New York this week. Some of our favourite designers have put on breathtaking shows, and subsequently, the beauty looks have been diverse, innovative and surprisingly, easy to recreate at home. Some of our favourites include Marc Jacobs, Rodarte, Jason Wu and Victoria Beckham, but that's not to say the others weren't equally inspiring. If we were going to sum up the key trend, it would have to be minimalist, and skin? Well, it's shiny and dewy — very Spring, very now. We've rounded-up 10 products under $20 that will help you recreate the runway trends at home, because high fashion doesn't have to cost a fortune.
