"A little bit androgynous, a little bit masculine" is how makeup artist and Shiseido artistic director Dick Page described the look at Alexander Wang's show Saturday. "It's a bit sexy, but a bit tough as well," said Page, who achieved this by applying Makeup Stick Cream Foundation in a shade or two darker than the model's skin tone to contour the cheeks, before dusting the face with Translucent Loose Powder, for a "very matte finish."
Page skipped the mascara, but lined the eyes with Eyeliner Pencil in Deep Brown and applied Silky Eye Shadow in Granite Stone for a murky effect.
Lips were neutral and monochrome—painted with a blend of Eyeliner Pencil in Deep Brown and Perfect Rouge Lipstick in Spiced Cream.

hi, i've loved your blog for so long now!
i have a question for you about concealer - please help if you can!
i'm indian (mac NC40-42) and i have really dark circles, which i find difficult to colour-match. i've tried mac, nars, clinique, bobbi brown, laura mercier, napoleon perdis, (as well as cheaper brands like revlon) -- nothing is successful! they are either too light, or too orange. if they cover my circles ok, they don't match the rest of my skin.
now, i am considering trying chanel or becca. any thoughts?
thanks xx
Anonymous,
Thank you for loving the blog! <3
For your under eye circles, I can recommend two products:
1. To treat them use Strivectin (http://strivectin.incredishop.com/free_trial.html)
2. To conceal them: Dermablend Cover Creme (http://www.dermablend.com/foundations/foundations-severe-flaws/new-cover-creme.htm)
let me know what u think..
thanks so much for your advice!
i really appreciate you taking the time to reply! :)
