The look for winter is pale lips and gorgeous dark eyes…..Here are some fabulous makeup tips from Style.com … hint: buy Chanel…
“The trapeze-shaped frocks in luxe jewel tones on Alberta Ferretti’s Fall runway were the designer’s way of capturing what she calls “the nonchalance of women today.” To complement her vision, makeup artist Peter Philips dreamed up a modern version of a sixties look that was both put-together and laid-back.”It’s a watered-down sixties look,” said Peter Philips of the heavily lined eyes and pale lips he created. “But it’s less refined and more rock ‘n’ roll than Brigitte Bardot.” He began by perfecting the models’ skin with Chanel Pro Lumière Professional Finish Makeup SPF 15, an oil-free base that lends a semi-matte finish to complexions. Instead of blush, he applied a highlighter to temples and cheekbones “to give the skin dimension without contouring.Philips lined top and bottom lashes with Chanel Le Crayon Kohl Intense Eye Pencil in Black before blending Chanel Ombre Essentielle Soft Touch Eyeshadows in Ebony and Mahogany from lash line to crease. Next, he brushed on Chanel Inimitable Waterproof Mascara Multi-Dimensionnel in Black, a multipurpose eye enhancer that volumizes, lengthens, curls, and separates lashes with each stroke. The models’ mouths were daubed with foundation instead of color. “It gave the lips a uniform tone that was neither too pink nor too pearly,” he said. (For a look that’s more real world than runway, Philips recommends using beige lip color on lips and adding a peach-hued blush to give cheeks more life)”. Chic.
