We always like seeing a catwalk trend in action, so Hilary Duff earned some fashion points from us with her take on Preen’s SS10 silver-rimmed eyes.

L’Oreal Creative Director James Kaliardos describes the Preen look as like ‘Kate Moss in the 1990s’ – fresh, pretty and super-easy to wear. Hilary’s upped the ante for the red carpet, teaming her silvery eyes with bold lashes and smoky eyes.

The great thing about adding a slick of silver to a deep smoky eye is that it opens up and widens the eyes with a clever trick of light. To DIY, take a cream or loose powder eye shadow (we love Dazzle Dust in Pale Silver, £4.50, by Barry M) and lightly dab onto the inner corner of your eyes, extending outwards. Simples, as the meerkats say.

So what’s it going to be, au naturel a la Preen or bold and smoky like Hilary? We’re divided on the ELLE Beauty desk
