Runway Beauty: Modern Eyeliner at Oscar de le Renta A/W 2016
Deriving inspiration from classical 18th century motifs such as Toile de Jouy, the Oscar de le Renta A/W 2016 collection was filled with a gorgeous palette of French blue, oyster, bordeaux, dusty rose and black, paired with a modern eyeliner with vintage nails.
Makeup: Diane Kendal for M·A·C Cosmetics
Nails: Michelle Saunders for essie
To perfect the skin, Kendal blended M·A·C Studio Finish SPF 35 Concealer over the face and applied Prep Prime Transparent Finishing Powder to set. She added Powder Blush in Cubic to the center of the cheeks for a flush of color and Mineralize Pinwheel in Transformer (available Autumn/Winter 2016) high on the cheekbones for a reflective finish on the skin. The eyes were lined with a large, squared wing over the top of the eye, using Creme Liner in Black with a 208 Brush. The crease of the eye was then defined with an oval, black shape that connected to the outer wing, ending in a soft, black point. Upper lashes were curled and swept through with Haute & Naughty Lash in Black. The look was finished with Lipstick in Fun Happens from M·A·C Trend Forecast Fall 16/Lip (available Autumn/Winter 2016) mixed with concealer and pressed onto the lips with a 242 Brush.
On the nails, Saunders created a well-groomed “vintage glow” look that represented health and vigor using shares allure and hi maintenance, followed by a coat of matte about you and apricot cuticle oil rubbed onto the nail to give a “satin” finish.
