MBFWA 2012: Lisa Maree

Who: Lisa Maree

When: 10:00am, April 30. The Tent, Overseas Passenger Terminal.

Inspiration: "The collection is called Lucid Dreaming, and it's based on the state of purgatory, so that in-between moment when someone is kind of awake and asleep. It's to do with a nightmare theme - reality versus non-reality."

Hair: Maria Ardino for Redken

Hair style: "Today's show is all about 'Lucid Dreaming', so it's all about fantasy and a little bit magical. With this look, we've created a two-tiered twisted ponytail. What we've done is create the two contrasting colours with the human hair hairpiece in the ponytail. I've just done this clean, polished look through the top, which will all be spray painted black. And then we're using these blonde hair pieces to have their natural colour peek through. The end look is a modern take on the ponytail. We've prepped the hair with Argan Oil 06, just for some beautiful smooth ironing, then Rootful 06 to get all the furries and keep in nice and clean. And then we've finished with Forceful 23," says Maria Ardino for Redken.

Make-up: Nigel Stanislaus for Maybelline New York

Make-up style: "For Lisa Maree, we have decided the look will be a dream-like state, so everything on the skin is soft and velvety. To do this we used a matte primer followed by the FitMe foundation, which we then powdered down so it's all nice and soft - like clouds. We've used a pastel palette. Over the lids we've used a medium blush to apply a beautiful wash of lilac. It's a universal colour that matches brown to blue eyes. On the cheeks we have a woosh of peach, and on the lips we have a beautiful, delicate colour. It's a very wearable look. When I was designing this look, it was about being able to take it from the catwalk to the sidewalk," says Nigel Stanislaus for Maybelline NY.
