MAKEUP FROM S/S 2010 CATWALK

I can't wait for winter dark days to be over, s-e-r-i-o-u-s-l-y ! In any event, I wanted to share with y'all the spring/summer runway makeup trends.


One o the trends for this spring and summer is clear skin and healthy lips. The models at Y-3 show glowed with natural makeup.



One word "WOW". Alexander Mcqueen surely knows how to put a show! The alien-esque look like models carried a thin layer of silver sheen on their faces along with aesthetic enhancements. This is a show to remember!



Key makeup artist Pat McGrath really brought it at the Christian Dior runway show. The look is fresh and colorful. Loved everything about it, the velvet red lipstick, the shimmering cheekbones the blue and lilac eye shadow.



he girls at the Lanvin show looked amazing. WOW! Bleach eyebrows and heavy shiny black smokey eyes! The rest of the face is kept low-key, the eyes are the focal point.


What I liked about Ruffian show was the beautiful graphic eyes makeup. Love the pink shadow and the blue lines across the lids and throughout the creases. Jaw-dropping!



The makeup team at Derek Lam was not afraid to let loose, painting rainbow colors on the models' eyes. The makeup is vibrant bright and recalls the freedom in the 80's.

MY PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP KIT


I'm based NYC, and taking the subway to get to work can be an exhausting experience. Carrying my supplies in a roller suitcase, during rush hour is the worst, let's not forget about doing stairs! I have no muscle whatsoever and can barely open heavy doors, so I try to compress my kit and been carrying it in my shoulder makeup bag. Here is a look to what's inside my makeup kit y'all!

CIRCLE CONTACT LENS



The cosplay big eyes look is taking Asia by storm. The secret behind this look are circle contact lenses, special lenses that makes the eye's iris appear larger. They are without a doubt rising in popularity in forums and beauty blogs. They sold throughout Asia some lenses were said to be unsafe so be smart find a legit seller, research the brands before ordering online.
