Runway Beauty: Smoky Eyes at Donna Karan Fall 2013

February 17, 2013

Fall is never quite fall without smoky eyes and at Donna Karan Fall 2013, makeup artist Charlotte Tilbury working for M·A·C Cosmetics created a look that was “back to Donna Karan’s DNA, smoky eye roots with a modern twist”.

Face
* Mineralize Charged Water Moisture Gel – blended into skin to instantly hydrate and create luminosity.
* M·A·C PRO Full Coverage Foundation – blended into skin as needed to perfect and tone.
* M·A·C PRO Copper Beach Sculpting Cream – blended under cheekbones for a warm contour.
* Luna Cream Colour Base – applied over upper cheekbones to highlight.

Eyes
* Blackground Paint Pot, M·A·C PRO Pearl Reflects Glitter and M·A·C PRO Shine Mixing Medium – mixed together and applied over eyelids with 224 Tapered Blending Brush, then blended upwards through the crease to the brow bone, for a diffused “bat-winged” look over the eye. A clean brush is used to further diffuse and blend through the crease and browbone, and a fingertip is used to remove product from the eyelid. 219 PENCIL BRUSH used with the Blackground Paint Pot mixture through the lower lashes to define eyes with a thick, but diffused line.
Extended Play Lash Endlessly Black Mascara – blended through the upper lashes only.
* M·A·C PRO Gloss Texture – added over the eyelids during line-up for an instant glossy dimension to eyes.

Lips
* M·A·C PRO Fleshpot Lipstick – tapped into the lip with a fingertip for a soft velvety nude on lips.

Nails
* Quiet Time Nail Lacquer – applied for a putty-coloured manicure with a hard edge that remains chic. Nails were given a “Cu-Tip” shape to mirror the cuticles.
