ThisThatBeauty’s Exclusive Coverage of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall/2010: Stila Backstage Makeup at Rebecca Minkoff

Sarah Lucero for Stila led the makeup team at Rebecca Minkoff. Flushed cheeks, stained lips, and lush lashes evoked the presence of French bombshell Brigitte Bardot. Lucero wanted the models to look as if they were just brought in from the cold. Brrrr! To achieve the look of bitten lips and stained cheeks Lucero used   Peony Convertible Color on cheeks and Cherry Crush Lip Stain. For those who have been following my makeup game this Fashion Week, you know I am all about the look that I call “the deranged snow bunny”. Its basically glossy lips, lush lashes top and bottom, and hella stained cheeks. To achieve “the deranged snow bunny” I have relied on Stila Convertible Color in Fuchsia. Perfection! But back to the Stila look at Rebecca Minkoff…..

For luminous skin, models were prepped with Darphin Skin Care.   Stila Illuminating Liquid Foundation was used to create a smooth and even complexion. The lids were based with Dune eye shadow and top with Brown Smudge Pot and Java eyeshadow. (Y’all know how much I LOVE Smudge Pot, so I was filled with school girl excitement to see the product being used for Rebecca Minkoff’s runway look) The eyes were framed with Kajal Eye Liner in Topaz, drawing a thick cat eye.   Lastly, individual false lashes were applied and coated with Convertible Mascara. Here’s the ofish face chart:
