Beauty Break: Spring 2011 Makeup Looks


I'm such a fan of Marc by Marc Jacobs, if I could buy every single item in the collection I would be super happy. For the Spring 2011 runway show, Dick Page (for Shiseido) completed the makeup looks. The bright makeup look was inspired by the fun, bold Spring 2011 Marc by Marc Jacobs Collection.

Face Description: Smooth, matte skin using a light wash of New! Shiseido Makeup Perfect Refining Foundation (available February 2011) to even the skin tone and to cover up redness or blemishes.

Eye Description: A dewy, melting color was the look they were going for. To create a dewy effect, Dick applied Shiseido Benefiance Full Correction Lip Treatment on the eyelids, and a trace under the lower lash line. Next, Dick sketched right into the upper and lower lash lines with the Shiseido Makeup Smoothing Eyeliner Pencil in Black (BK901); application was sketched and looked “scrubby.” Dick then applied a second light application of the Shiseido Benefiance Full Correction Lip Treatment over the eyeliner to give a “melting” effect.

Lip Description: “Matte, intense lips.” To create a smooth surface, Dick prepped the lips with Shiseido Benefiance Full Correction Lip Treatment; lips were thoroughly blotted with a tissue to remove excess product. Next, Dick applied Shiseido Makeup Perfect Rouge Lipstick in Day Lily (OR418) and again blotted the lips with a tissue to remove excess product. Dick then applied a thin layer of Shiseido Makeup Translucent Loose Powder under the lower lip line to catch excess product. Then with a clean fluffy brush, Dick applied an orange high-pigment powder (a working lab prototype for a potential new Shiseido product!) over the lipstick to intensify the color.

Will you be sporting Orange Lips this Spring?
