Freckles, flowers and glitter: The most interesting makeup from fashion weeks
Today Paris Fashion Week is over, which means it's time to take stock. Trends vary from city to city, but they all share one thing: the choice in favor of the game and fun, not naturalness. The last point is rethought as they can, having fun with natural materials in unnatural conditions, forging a "natural" look so that the artificiality is obvious. The lines become negligent, the proportions are distorted (sometimes extreme), in the spring-summer tradition - there are a lot of colors. In general, once again we are reminded that appearance is a canvas for your inner artist.
Eyebrow Experiments
A few years ago, everyone agreed that eyebrows are one of the most important parts of a beauty image. The result was an incredible variety of options for what can be done with them. The totalitarian fashion for wide natural shoots is gradually losing momentum - it is likely that in the next couple of seasons more and more trends will appear. Makeup artists are seriously carried away with the eyebrow lightening: this approach can be seen in the makeup on the show Max Mara, Matty Bovan, Rick Owens and Maison Martin Margiela. The face takes on an alien appearance, and the bright colors framing the eyes look even more impressive. Another memorable bow was shown by Rochas: natural eyebrows, marked on top with a thin black line.
Wet hair
Styling, imitating wet hair, flashed almost everywhere. In New York, they could be seen on the shows of Hood by Air, Thakoon and Altuzarra, in London, laying on the catwalk on the catwalk was laid by Julien Macdonald’s beach waves, and with a thick layer of gel - by Versus Versace and Christopher Kane. Hair can be collected in high hairstyle, left flowing, licked in one direction to absolute smoothness or make a careless head, not being afraid to overdo it with styling products. “Wet” bow of the next season, rather, about the rain in the city than about beach volleyball - even more interesting.
Monochrome
You can use only one color, but which one. Bright pastel lips rhymed with eyeliner on the lower eyelid at Thom Brown, at the Anna Sui show, models came out with wine shadows, MAC makeup artists did a great job with Adam Selman’s blush, using them for sculpting, and in Paris, this makeup was on Fenty x Puma. Kenzo in the choice of makeup stopped at the current red color - you can once again see how beautiful it is. On many shows, conciseness reigned: make-up artists chose not just one color, but generally only one accent, the main thing - quite noticeable. Issey Miyake, Vionnet (and much else where - interest in art elements is increased) are drawings on the face, while Jason Wu and Olivier Theyskens have red lipstick. The rest of the makeup was purposely left as neutral as possible.
Lip glitter
The trend set by Pat McGrath has been mastered by every self-respecting make-up artist and beauty blogger - now it’s a world treasure. Lips strewn with sparkles showed at Fendi: Peter Phillips suggested a less graphic and more grunge version in golden-bronze tones. Pat herself did a make-up with the participation of his own hand-made set of Lust 004 for showing DKNY, again breaking applause. It seems that this is the case when fashionable reception is fixed even thanks to the whole pair of podium bows. Shining lip makeup is already quite popular - now it will be interesting to see how it will take root in the world of fashion.
Flowers
Flowers in her hair appear regularly in catwalk at many spring-summer shows, which is quite logical. In New York, everyone remembered the giant crowns from the Michael Costello show, and in Milan incredibly beautiful flowers wore Dolce & Gabbana models. The most interesting relationship with plants was formed by MAC makeup artist Val Garland, who did make-up with flower applications to show Preen by Thornton Bregazzi. Perfect makeup for sunny days as it is: the most pleasant thing is that everything else can be minimized.
Up eyes
The more careless and inventive, the better. Dashing classic cat shooters made a company of brilliant lips at Fendi, Marchesa showed makeup with a silver liner on the lower eyelid, laconic and black lines painted like a night at the 3.1 Phillip Lim show. In the Altuzarra show, dark shades were thickly painted, and the dark liner smeared within the bounds of propriety was seen by Prabal Gurung and Elie Saab. Colored eyeliners are also here: a memorable version was shown in Paris by Haider Ackermann, and the most dramatic, with a wet glitter under the eyes, by Christian Wijnants.
Drawn freckles
This method less than others appeared on the podium - and for make-up artists this is more likely to be pampering, albeit a pleasant one. Natural-looking freckles painted at the Jason Wu show, and in Esteban Kortazar make-ups they were made careless and radiant. Undercover: a lot of brown dots scattered all over the face, in the company of disheveled eyebrows. One of the most elegant catwalk parodies of the Holy Grail, called natural beauty.
