Dick Page, Artistic Director for Shiseido, called the look at Michael Kors "very iconic." Imagine the all-American beauty with healthy, warm skin that leaves a very earthy, natural impression.
I loved watching the action backstage. Dick really took great pride in making sure every model represented what Michael Kors wanted to convey on the runway. He didn't let one model leave backstage without putting his finishing touches on the makeup.
This look was all about illuminating the skin. Dick used tons of Shiseido's Luminizing Satin Face Color and Eye Color. He also layered the cheeks with bronzing powder. (Everyone needs a great bronzing powder that is right for their skin tone.)
Dick and Michael wanted a slightly wind-burned look on the skin to complement the very casual and relaxed feel of the Michael Kors Fall 2010 Collection. Dick did a great job of making the makeup tie in with the theme of the show.
This look was achieved by really accentuating the eyes with coloring sticks in warm bronze shades to give a halo affect. Then, the banana shape of the eyelid was followed to contour the crease of the eye. All the eyeshadows diffused into one another.
On the lips, Dick used a caramel color lipstick (Fall 2010) to create a just-barely-there finish.
Check out the hair at this show. All models had a wind-blown ponytail placed low at the nape of the neck. You can achieve this look at home by teasing your hair and using hairspray to set. Remember to leave hair a little messy in the front to complete the look.
