Lakshmi Menon in Fall 2009's Make-up Trends [Carolina Herrera]


The look for Carolina Herrera’s show on Monday was Beth Porter (ladylike) meets Shane McCutcheon (rough)…a look that had me head over heels in love. Makeup Artist Diane Kendal used makeup from M.A.C. Cosmetics at the show. With strict direction from Herrera herself, the designer wanted models to have a more luminous look. Kendal lined the models eyes with a nude shimmer pencil on the bottom inside of the eyelid. On the brow bone and cheeks, Kendal used a white pearlized pigment ( this technique allowed the light to pick up the shimmer when models walked down the runway). Foundation was applied very lightly, used more like a tinted moisturizer than a blemish coverup. To warm up the cheeks, Kendal used the M.A.C. Mineralize blush in peach and finished the look by using the popular Twig color M.A.C. lipstick and Dazzle Glass berry lip-gloss.
