One of my favorite beauty tips of the week was from the Laura Mercier team backstage at Pamela Roland. It gets very hectic at times when 30 or more models need to all have their hair, makeup and nails done so quick easy steps to get the girls ready is what every makeup artist needs to be prepare to do. Backstage they used a Mineral Powder to create a full coverage foundation, just grab a brush, dust across the face and instantly you've created the look of perfect skin.
I love how the matte texture of the mineral makeup is a contrast to the gold metallic powder they used on eyes. (the gold shadow will launch in fall 09.) It's like mixing textures in your wardrobe, everything just seems to looks richer. It's like a great chunky gold necklace against a beautiful cashmere sweater, they make each other stand out. That's kind of what you see in the picture below. Beautiful flawless skin and gold glided eyes. For definition they used the black caviar eye liner and for color wild berry lip plumper on lips. Rich colors, beautiful textures, it's starting to feel fall.
