MAC Spring/Summer 09 Trend : Black To Earth
The Look :
Messy in boot polish black and sootily mineral shades. It’s about melted liners, cream textures and being punked up in gloss texture for a lived in look. It’s rock but it’s goddess.
“It’s about having a little drama to your makeup in summer without looking too perfected” – Lucia Pieroni
The Pro Tips :
Stay Fresh : Mix black eyes with shimmer on the cheekbones, or a Strobe Cream gleam on the skin. This season’s dark eyes are paired with a glowing, not Gothic, complexion, to keep them fresh.
Take the creamily black Eye Kohl in Smolder, swipe along the lashlines and smudge out with your fingers for a fast, messy black eye, a la Matthew Williamson.
Low key lip : the modern update on pairing inky eyes with beige lips is simple patting of Lip Conditioner to keep the mouth looking downplayed yet present.
