One of my absolute favorite makeup looks from the fall 2010 shows in New York was the one at Michael Kors. You can't deny that the models simply glow. It featured golden beauties as opposed to a deep lip. I don't really do the bold lip seen so often during these fall shows, but this gold/bronze combo perfect.
I'm especially in love with the blush and needed to track down what it was. It turns out Shiseido and the amazing Dick Page were responsible.
The details per Women's Wear Daily and Shiseido, including a look at a new fall palette launch :
"We’re doing a simple, sporty, Michael Kors American beauty,” said Dick Page, working with Shiseido at the show.
Products used:·
EYES:
Dick blended together the Accentuating Color Sticks in Bronze Flush (S1) and Glistening Flush (S3) to create a warm, bronzy shade; he then applied the color all over the eyelids.
· Dick then brushed the Luminizing Satin Face Color in High Beam Gold (BE206) over the eyelids to create a “halo” of color.
· Next, Dick used a fluff brush to apply the dark-bronze shade from the Shiseido Makeup Luminizing Satin Eye Color Trio in Opera (GD804)* along the upper lash line and up through the crease, following the natural eye shape. A large fluff brush was then used to diffuse the color.
· To line the eyes, Dick took the charcoal shade from Luminizing Satin Eye Color Trio in Fire (OR302)* and slightly dampened the edge of the shadow for intensity. Using a small liner brush, Dick used the damp charcoal color to line two-thirds of the upper lash line and the full bottom lash line.
· Then, Dick used the dark-bronze shade from the Shiseido Makeup Luminizing Satin Eye Color Trio in Opera (GD804)* to blend over the lash lines to soften and diffuse the color.
· For the upper lashes, Dick gently curled the lashes with the Shiseido Makeup Eyelash Curler and then applied a coat of the Shiseido Makeup Perfect Mascara Defining Volume in Black (BK901)*.
FACE
· “Warm with a flush of bright color”
· Dick applied a wash of Shiseido Makeup Dual Balancing Foundation over the face and along the jaw line.
· Dick then applied a mix of Shiseido Makeup Luminizing Satin Face Colors in High Beam White (WT905) and Soft Beam Gold (BE206) along the cheekbones and slightly under the eye area to create a highlight.
· Next, Dick applied a combination of Shiseido Makeup Luminizing Satin Face Colors on the apples of the cheeks, depending on each model’s skin tone. Shades used: Tea Rose (RS302), Orchid (RD401), Petal (RD103), Carnation (PK304) and Shell (GD809).
LIPS
· Dick applied Shiseido Makeup Perfect Rouge Lipstick in Caramel (BR333)* with a soft fluff brush and then diffused the color.
