Hello everyone!

So far Mercedez-Benz Fashion Week has been simply fantastic!  MAC Cosmetics is definitely setting the tone for Spring make-up.  The face for spring includes healthy looking skin with natural warm colors.

At the Thisday Arise African Collective Show, the lead MAC Makeup Artist, Fatima, created a simple but classic look.  Her inspiration for the look was the fiery orange red color used in the Jewel Collection.  Specifically she used a strong red lip with sheer lightweight foundation, black smudged gel eyeliner and no mascara.  Here is the look:

The MAC Products used were:

• Lips – Mix of Pure lip Pigment and Park Side lipstick
• Face- Face and Body Foundation
• Eyes- Fluid Gel Eyeliner. No Mascara just curled lashes.

At the Juan Carlos Obando MAC Lead Make-up Artist, Fulvia Fanolfi created a look that was reminiscent of “Old Westerns.”  Fulvia drew her inspiration from Obando’s Spring Collection that included the colors of the desert.   As a result, Fulvia used browns, bronzes, and taupes to create a dusky look.

The MAC Products used were:

• Face – A blend of MAC NC45 and NC55 on the cheeks, Bronzer, and the color Taupe for countouring.
• Eyes – Brown Breeze eyeshadow was used on the eyes.
• Lips – Brown Breeze eyeshadow was used on the lips as well.

Here is the look:

As Fulvia stated, “the look is very monochromatic and cinematographic as if the model had been exposed to the sun for a month.”

Stay tuned for more Spring Beauty Trends!
