Who: Bec & Bridge
When: 5:00pm, May 16, David Jones, Level 7
Hair: Renya Xydis for Wella Professional
Hair look:
"The inspiration for the look is this French, cool chick who’s gone back to the 90s and she’s owning her look. So we’ve used the glam mist to give the ends some shine, then I’m using shake me which is a new product from Wella which is going to give it a really lovely texture and a lot of hold. Then perfect me which is a beautiful cream and some dry shampoo. We’re also curling the mid lengths of the hair and straightening the ends.”
Makeup: Nicole Thompson for M.A.C
Makeup look:
“The collection is called ‘Meow Meow’ and we’ve got two different looks today, all very French, cool girl chic. We loved the idea of doing two different looks because it’s all about finding a look that suits the girl and suits the outfit. The red lip look, we started the skin with our Face and Body Foundation. I asked everybody to put it on with their hands so it’s a seamless finish. Then we’re using a tiny bit of Studio Finish Concealer and dabbing it on with the tiny brushes. I’m also using the White Face & Body Foundation which a lot of people don’t realise we have, but when I dab it on the high points of the face it gives it a really beautiful glow, brightness and shine. With the lip it is the So Chaud Lipstick, the red Lip Pencil and the Pigment over the top. We’re leaving the brows natural and on the eyes using our Siss Lipstick, we’ve brushed it around so it has a soft tea-stain effect. We’ve also used it on the cheeks. For the blue liner, we’ve used Chromacake in Marine Ultra and Zinc Blue and How Royal Eyeshadow over the top to create this thick line with a rounded edge.”
