This year Burberrys AW14 Campaign was all about the capes and trench coats to go with elegant rosey shades of purple and olive floral leaf prints. Longline lengths seemed to be a recurring theme on the runway.
For they eyes Nude Blush Complete Eye Palette was used to create 'a wash of aubergine on the eyelid'5 I think not only does this perfectly suit the hues of purple in the clothes but this also is a lovely winter colour to think about using. I find it really refreshing to see the use of such rosy tender purples because we tend to think of winter colours as being dark vampy shades and gothic greys and blacks. Because of this I also find this look to be really versatile and would be a rocking look to wear right through spring. Wendy Rowe rights on her blod that the look was tailored slightly to each girls face shape. I noticed Cara Delivigne wearing a slightly smokier heavier look in comparison to some of the other models who were given one slightly more subtle. This works well because on some looks the subtle feel seems to stand out more and on others a real smokey effect looks the correct way to wear the look given the choice of clothes.
A full brow has been added to create a strong look. Some looking heavier then others. Rowe explains on her blog the full brows were decided to give the models a stronger structure. For the base Fresh Glow in Golden Radiance6 was used to brighten and moisturise the skin. This radiant look seems to be a key theme to the look, each model looked fresh faced and dewy, I think this gives the make up a really nice balance. If there was a matt finish this would totally transform the look giving it a far more edgy harsher appearance.
The foundation used was of course Burberry too. Keeping with the radiant appearance, Fresh Glow Fluid Foundation was used to give a 'real silky skin like quality'7
No mention has been given about the use of mascara or liner however I can see that no mascara has been used I think this compliments the look well it keeps in with the fresh faced subtle look, this look is not one of high glamor to me it says less is more. I think this gives a really elegant feel one that you would expect to see from Burberry.
For the lips Burberry Lip cover was used in Tulip Pink.8 This was clearly applied to the natural shape of the lips, this is a lovely touch and really brings some balance to the make up mirroring it with the eyes.
This is a gorgeous look from Wendy Rowe for Burberry, Its a new way to style your make up suitable for a fancy dinner or every day. It has inspired me a lot to experiment with colours I wouldn't necessarily go for. This look is really wearable for everyone.

| Lime Crime Venus Palette |

| Lime Crime Instagram |
Recently Lime Crime launched there new Venus Pallete. The looks that they have been posting on there Instagram are really similar to the look seen in Burberry's Campaign. I feel they have created a slightly grungier take on the AW14 look. The Venus Palette consists of some really similar shades of autumnal colours.
Not much is available about how the look for this hair was achieved however I can tell you that the stylist for the show was the wonderful Christiaan. I imagine this look to be achieved with a straight blow dry adding some volume towards the ends of the hair. Also there looks as if some teasing has been given to the hair to create an almost naturally static look as if the models were going about there day to day. This is perfectly matching to the natural theme of the make up itself. I would use some hair sprey also to give some hold to the volume at the ends. The shape of the volume added is very free flowing with out definite curls the hair looks natural with an almost rolled out of bed feel.
