It wasn’t just the casual cool chignons spotted on the runway, it was the faces too. The edgy look is everywhere this season and it was no exception at Venexiana – eyes full of drama and a pop of color on the lips filled the runway. But don’t worry – CUPCAKE MAG has got it covered so you can get the look, straight from the runway.

THE COLOR STORY:

To compliment a sophisticated and bold collection, the makeup look features DARK DRAMATIC eyes, a smokey/cat eye combination, completed with a semi-matte complexion and peachy pink lips and cheeks.

HOW TO GET THE LOOK:

• Complexion: Try SEPHORA MATIFYING COMPACT FOUNDATION to create a flawless canvas. Add a pop of color with a cream blush or powder such as SEPHORA BLUSH ME! MONO in Rose Rebelle 1.

• Eyes: For a smokey look, apply SEPHORA MONO EYESHADOW in Must Have 06 all over lid. Line both upper and lower lash lines for a cat eye effect. Finish by applying false lashes like SEPHORA FLIRT IT LASH DUO to add extra drama.

• Lips: To get the ultimate peachy, coral pout, start with a lip liner, then fill in with SEPHORA LIP ATTITUDE CHIC in Elegant Pink 05, a creamy pink lipstick. Top it off with SEPHORA PURE LIPGLOSS in Peachy Pink.
