Fashion makeup winter 2011 – Roberto Cavalli

It hasn’t been hard to spot that the biggest color trend of this season, both in fashion and in beauty are those of the maroon category i.e. browns. Luckily it’s not as boring as it might sound as the tones does vary from gold, taupe, bronze, camel beige and deep coffee tones. For some great reason, this season’s trend of late 60s and early 70s flare of women glamour clothes pared up with the colors in mention, really gives a lush, rich and extravagant look while still keeping it down to earth and innocent with the toned down color palette.

Fashion Makeup look # 4: “The innocent and the extravagant”

If there is one designer we can always count on to deliver sexy, sensual and strong women strutting confidently down the runway, it is definitely Roberto Cavalli. Even though his clothes demonstrated a slightly younger feel then usual and the loosely tossed hair did the same, the fashion makeup was 100 % grown up glamour. By all means, it’s a fashion makeup look that will suit most ages, but what it demonstrates is a woman who knows the tricks on how to play up an important feature with using very little; the eyes. The eyes are absolutely the key secret to this glamorous fashion makeup look and you don’t need much either! As long as you have eye shadows in the tones of coffee, taupe and strong gold pared up with a black eyeliner and a lush mascara, you’re all set! Apply the black eye liner along the whole of your eyelash line, preferably ending with a flick towards the ears at the outer edges. Keep the inner eye corners dazzling with gold, the rest of the lid soaked in taupe and in a feline shape, while the coffee color reinforces the intensity along the global, outer corners and under the eyes. Finish it all off with tons of black eyeliner on the inner eye rims and mascara. The skin needs to be super even, but still as natural as possible. This is best achieved by working with a stippling foundation brush and a water based foundation such as MACs Face + Body Foundation. Work the foundation up carefully and thinly until desired coverage is met. Finish up with a translucent setting powder and then a stroke of Wonder Powder from Makeup Store for a perfect illuminated face. The lips and eyebrows from this fashion makeup look can actually cope with most colors and shapes, so you don’t have to stick to the nude lips and ungroomed dark eyebrows if you don’t want to.
