Zac Possen New York SS15

























The make up for Zac Possen was a clean fresh dewey look full of texture, A range of different make up from Mac was used to create the perfect mix of matt,shine and bold colour lead by lead stylist Kabuki. 

The clothing says to me sexy strong and independent working women, I think the make up purposely matches this statement. A fresh healthy glowing face really is enhanced and stepped up a gear with a bold and graphic red lip. 

Kabuki used two foundations on the face, starting with Face & Body on the sides of the face and a Matte Match Master foundation down the centre. This is a great idea as I feel it helps create healthy cheeks that are plump and fresh but avoids creating that shine around the T zone areas. 

The eyes are carefully highlighted with what looks like a subtle warm gold tone with a really shiny texture. This highlights  the health bright glow that comes with the look created by Kabuki. Lashes were coated minimally with black I think this is a nice touch because and incorporates the black that is in the collection. 

The lips are the statement making part of the look. The lips were filled in entirely and lined with Mac cherry red pencil, Then over the top a red lipstick was applied. For Kabuki this was a 'play of texture' I think applying the two colours on top of each other gives a boldness and depth of colour that finish of the look really well. 


Hair was styled by Odile Gilbert using Kèratase. I love this style it reminds me of that typical scene of a beautiful women bursting out of the water. Lots and lots of gel has been used to create this wonderful wet look texture, It has been combed back but not made flat there is still some volume in the front. This style is really masculine which I feel suit the attitude of the clothing. I think this may be one of my favourite hair styles of the season because its strong and bold and really fun for spring time.
