Runway Looks - Aut/Wint '11 - Jeremy Scott

Hello everyone~
Today's recreated runway look is from Jeremy Scott's Autumn/Winter '11 collection. Firstly i'd like to just say that I love Jeremy Scott, he is in my top 5 designers that I admire. His collections are original, youthful, fun and quirky, and what's best is you can take what he has on the runway and wear it everyday, his work is so wearable! In this collection, the models had multi-coloured hair that was tied up in high pigtails, and their makeup was also very bright. The eye shadows varied from yellow, green, orange and pink, and all the models wore dramatic pointed lashes on their lower lashes, giving a very interesting and dramatic look.
If you'd like to know how I recreated these looks:

Firstly, I applied a toner and moisturiser to my skin. This time i'm not going to start with BB Cream like I usually do because pink eye shadow has a lot of fall out and if you try getting rid of it over your foundation/BB Cream, you're going to have a bad time. I began with using a primer all over my eyelids, extending it out past my brows.

I used a matte bright pink blush (you can use eye shadow, I just used what I had) all over my lids and I gradually began blending it upwards. I used a pink eye shadow (1) over the top and blended it outwards, creating a wing shape.

I used another pink blush (2) and used this as a blending colour. I used a matte cream eye shadow (3), and two light pink eye shadows (4,5) under my brow bone to help me create a wing shape.

To make my crease a little bit darker and to intensify the pink more, I used a matte lilac eye shadow (6) through my crease and I darkened it up even more with a matte purple (7).

I wiped away any fallout that I had with a makeup wipe.
I re-applied some primer under my lash line, then I used a matte blue eye shadow (8) under my eyes and connected it to the pink eye shadow.

I used a BB Cream all over my face and I used a concealer for extra coverage. Then I set my makeup with baby powder - I used this because the models were very pale and this would help whiten me out a bit.

I used a white eyeliner on my waterline and I applied this quite thickly. I used a black pen eyeliner on my top lash line, making sure I didn't wing it out. I then applied a lot of mascara on my top lashes only.

I used a pair of dramatic, pointy lashes on my lower lash line.

I blanked out my lips with my concealer then I applied a neon/light pink lipstick to my lips.

And that's it!

I hope you enjoyed reading this post,  I had a lot of fun doing it! 
Remember, if you want to re-create this look, you don't have to use the exact same products as me! Have fun with it and tone it down or make it as dramatic as you want~!

Runway Looks Aut/Wint '12 - Lanvin

Hello everyone~
I've decided to do a mini series! Yay~ this series is going to be about Runway looks from the Autumn/Winter '12 collections from various designers. I'll be doing my best to recreate the looks that the models wore on the runways. 
To kick start the series, I decided to show you how to do Lanvin's Aut/Wint '12 makeup. This is a very very basic look, and the only real problem that you might have is if you don't have a steady hand! The models wore blonde eyebrows with thick eyeliner that winged out dramatically. On their face it was just foundation, concealer, powder and highlight down the nose, and on their lips they wore nothing. Very basic, like I said, but easy. If you'd like to know how I recreated this look:

Then please keep on reading~!

Firstly, I applied a toner and a mattifying moisturiser to my skin. After that I applied BB Cream and concealer to any areas on my face that needed extra coverage.

To make my eyebrows lighter, I rubbed in some eyebrow wax into the hairs of my eyebrows and then I used two medium skin colours that look blonde (1,2). To make them even lighter, I used a little bit of white (3) over the top.

I then applied a primer all over my lids and then I used the same matte white (1) all over my lids and up to my brow bone.

For the eyeliner, I used a black gel liner, but if you'd rather use pencil, liquid, pen, etc, you may! Use what ever you're most comfortable with. 
I began by putting the colour onto my lids, but not bringing  it past my crease yet.

From the inner corners, I brought the liner up and began making a curved line.

I filled in a majority of my eyelid then I moved on making the wing.
I followed my lower lash line and drew a straight line from the outer corner of my eyes. Once i'd done that, I connected the top line to the bottom and filled it in.

Play around with the shape until you're happy~
With the excess eyeliner left on my brush, I looked straight ahead and carefully lined under my eyeris.

I applied mascara to my top lashes only and set my makeup in place with a powder.

I used a shimmery eye shadow (1) as a highlight and I only put this on the bridge of my nose, and after that I used a lip balm for my lips.
And that's it!

I went on an editing overload~

Super easy right?! 
I really hope you like this look and I also hope that you stay tuned for other runway looks, some will be more wearable than others, and of course, you can tone down this look to make it suit you! Play with it and have fun!
Thanks again~!
