Who: The Innovators
When: 3:00 pm, May 17, Runway
Hair: Marie Cain for Redken
Hair look:
“The Innovators is all graduate designer collections, so obviously we needed a hair look that worked across all of those showing. The main brief was to keep it slicked back, so we’ve done a more intricate take on a slicked back ponytail. From the distance it will look quite slicked back and close to the head, but up close it should look really interesting. Depending on the texture of hair we’ve prepped with Rootful 06, it’s like the go-to product and is the ultimate for root volume and constructual work. Once we have that in we’ve been using a soft wax to do the braids, and after the braids we’ve fastened the final two sections of the hair into two slicked back ponytails. This was done using Mess Around 10 and Forceful 23. To finish, we’re using Outshine 02 to give the hair a glossy look.”
Makeup: Kat for Cameron Jane Makeup Design School
Makeup look:
“It’s a group show so the designers came to the decision that they wanted a really beautiful, natural, glowing look with a bronzy eye - so it looks amazing with each collection. The boys are just having male grooming, so it’s not a very ‘makeup-y look’. The key products are moisturiser and oil mixed together on the skin for hydration, then M.A.C Face and Body Foundation with the M.A.C Studio Finish Concealer. Then we highlighted the entire face and eyes and used clear brow gel and lip conditioner.”
