Who: bec & bridge
When: 1 pm, May 17. Bay 25, Carriageworks.
Hair: Alan White for
Hair look: “Inspiration is southern Indian girls in the hot sun. She's got a little bit of polish to her hair but with a naturalness in the texture. I've got a bit of moisture in the ends of the hair to make it look like it's been affected by the humidity. We're creating natural movement in high ponytails with a little bit of polish. The ponytail is below the crown but above the occipital bone - which keeps it looking youthful. We're using Guts to give volume and Diamond Oil to give a luxurious polish."
Make-up: Kellie Stratton for
Make-up look: “The make-up look was inspired by a hot, sultry Indian summer. I wanted the girls to have an effortless, sexy, cool vibe. I am using a kajal around the eye and pushing it in to give that look as though you've been out all night and have got a little bit of eyeliner left in your eyeline. To go back to the Indian vibe, we're putting glitter in the corner of the eyes. Lashes are bare to create a more youthful look. Skin is minimalistic and we're using a cream stick on the eyes. Everything is very pared back and very nude. Lips have a caramel tone to take the red out."

Tan: Michael Brown for
Tan look: “bec & bridge have a lot of different types of outfits - from bikinis to long dresses - so we have to think about all different types of bodies. On the pale girls, we're using a light dust of our classic formula - which is a light to medium spray tan. This lifts their skin but doesn't change it too dramatically. The girls with olive skin are having Luxe Oil, which is very glowing, nourishing and gives a healthy tan. Once the classic has set after five minutes, we do all the pale girls with Luxe Oil as well. The look is that of an active, healthy lifestyle."
