Tanya Taylor SS15 New York



Similarly to last year Tanya Taylor had a bright and airy collection that made coral a must have colour to wear as clothing and on the lips! The clothing had some really nice patterns and funky cut out shapes to spice it up a little. 


The lead Make up Stylist for the show was Uzo From Nars Cosemtics.1 She created this wonderful look to compliment the clothed keeping the bright coral orange as the theme.
The look - "The Tanya Taylor women is always crisp, fresh and bold. She loves a surprise and appreciates the unexpected. Her make-up mirrors that expression again this season wit classically radiant and highlighted skin combined with a shockingly bright orange-red lip"2
To create the look Nars cosmetics took the lead. To being with Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturiser was used on the skin.3 I have used this product from Nars before during the summer period. It is a really wonderful product it goes on really silky and smooth and I especially liked how it gave me a healthy glow. Without powdering it gave me a really nice dewy look. The coverage I would say is somewhat light to medium, this look has quite a natural feel to it so is perfectly suitable. I think this has helped create the fresh face spring time look for Tanya Taylor's show. This plump and fresh look is symbolic for spring time especially. 
To conceal the face Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer was applied. I also use this product its a very light and silky concealer. This concealer contributes to the luminosity of the look. 
Uzo brought two types of illuminators to highlight the cheeks one for darker skin tones and another for lighter skin tones. For the lighter skin tones Nars Copacabana Illuminator was used. And for the darker skin tones Nars Laguna Illuminator was used.

Eye shadow was applied to the lid of the eyes. Nars Nepal Shimmer Eye Shadow was used. I love how this shadow was used, Its very light reflecting and really contributes to the brightness of this spring look. Despite the shimmers it doesn't detract anything a way from the bright lip that is to be used. 

Godess Soft Touch Shadow Pencil was used (Scorpios for darker skin tones) and applied to line the bottom lash line. This is one of my favourite key parts to the make up. Looking at it you can see it really brightens up the look, opening the eyes to give a really subtle but striking feel the face. Its almost as if this lightened lash line makes the look more intriguing. Mascara has also been applied and brows filled in naturally and shaped, Framing the face delicately. 
 

Last but not least for the all important look defining part. This bright and energetic was created first with Nars Velvet Lip liner in Playa Dorada. Then filled in with Nars Timanfaya Satin Lip Pencil 

Like previous shows I think this effortless and flawless look is very much a favourite of Tanya Taylor. The boldness of the lip really compliments the show well in fact I would even go as far as to say the lips made the show!

The hair for the show was simple but had great surprises at the back. Alan Wood from Bumble and Bumble designed the hair.5 The loose braids were thrown back resting behind the model I really like this it mirrors the effortless theme perfectly. 

The products used from Bumble & Bumble were Thickening Hairsprey to help achieve the tidy parting at the front of the hair. From mid length down Dryspun Finish a texturising spray that is powdery and clear was used to a create texture within the braids.6 

Overall I think this look is great for spring. Its surprising and energetic but still has a really relaxed feel. The make up is light and airy. I love the element of surprises in both the make up and the hair. I can't wait to try out this look.
