Glossy is the ultimate way to dress up your eyes according to NYFW

Glossy lids had a major moment backstage at NYFW. And we are not talking about layering your sticky and not-opthalmologist tested lip gloss on your eyes, we are saying that for next season several beauty brands will launch proper eye glosses. Check out here the look and the products.

Non c’è niente che catturi più uno sguardo di un’ombretto glossy, di una palpebra laccata come un top-coat. A dimostrarlo sono i beauty look portati in passerella a New York per la Primavera-Estate 2017, scopriteli tutti qui insieme ai prodotti usati per realizzarli.

The easy yet stylish beauty look at Micheal Kors SS2016

It is very New Yorker: glowing skin, a touch of bronzer and some gloss on lips and lids. The beauty look created by Dick Page for Micheal Kors Spring Summer 2016 was, indeed, super simple, but it had a twist of glamour, something that is essential when the initial M and K are involved.

Individual refined natural look at Zac Posen SS2016

It seems like individuality was the buzzword backstage at Zac Posen (and not only there). Weather it was to make the clothes stand out or to fight the homologation along that catwalk, what is sure is that all the girls looked at their best.

Ad aiutarli al loro debutto, MAC Cosmetics e Testanera che hanno messo a loro disposizione un team di professionisti che li ha accompagnati nella creazione del total look.

The eternal childhood at Jeremy Scott Fall 2015

There was a certain ludic joy in Jeremy Scott’s beauty look for Fall 2015 that perfectly backed up the nursery rhyme-inspired collection for grown-up girls. From the neon eye design to the acrylic painted bobbed wigs, everything was an ode to childhood, translated in a technicolor, festive dream.

Un mondo ludico, quello del prossimo inverno di Jeremy Scott, fatto di colori flashy che vestono gli occhi fino alle sopracciglia in un bizzarro eye-design e che tingono parrucche sbarazzine. L’ispirazione, ovviamente, è un ode all’infanzia e tutto quello che ruota intorno ad essa, rivisitata in chiave pop-art per un sogno allegro, in technicolor.

Beautiful Skin and Orange-Red Lip for Les Copains SS2015

Backstage at Les Copains everything was about a beautiful, glowy, polished skin. Lloyd Simmonds for Mac Cosmetics created something very natural yet precious putting the focus on subtle bronzed eyes and cheekbones and a red-orangey lip.

Una pelle radiosa e perfetta, accompagnata da occhi bronzati e labbra rosso-arancio, è stato il focus beauty della PE 2015 di Les Copains. Lloyd Simmonds per Mac Cosmetics ha dato vita a un look naturale e al tempo stesso prezioso creato giocando sul ton sur ton fra occhi e zigomi e sbizzarrendosi con texture cremose e bronzate.

The tonal Look at Donna Karan SS2015

A tonal look with nude shades and a full four-section braid took center stage backstage at Donna Karan SS2015.

Un look ton sur ton ha preso vita nel backstage di Donna Karan. A dirigere il tutto Charlotte Tilbury per MAC Cosmetics che ha voluto rendere i visi delle modelle raffinati ed eleganti giocando con i toni della pelle.

Sumo Knots and 5 different lipsticks for Carolina Herrera SS2015

Here it comes the second Japanise-inspired hairstyle of the season. Would it be a trend for next spring? Whether it will or not it’s totally worth-it. Backstage at Carolina Herrera, Orlando Pita wanted to back up the mosaic-flower prints seen in the collection creating a sumo knot, some kind of looped ponytail at the crown of the head with some pinned, blount-cut extensions beneath it.

Glossy eyes and standout red lips @ ZAC Posen SS2015

Forget romanticism, Zac Posen SS2015 show was all about power and sexiness. White, black, and red were the only colors in the collection, and each was shown tonally. Kabuki, for Mac Cosmetics, did the same and put the focus on standout red lips and high-shine glossy eyes with black black lashes.

Niente romanticismi, alla PE2015 di Zac Posen forza e sensualità hanno regnato sovrane fra abiti monocromaticamente rossi, neri e bianchi e un makeup che è stato al passo.

Organic vibe at Prabal Gurung SS2015

Organic is the word that better describes the vibe backstage at Prabal Gurung. The collection’s was all about a juxtaposition between sportswear and haute couture and consequently the beauty look couldn’t be nothing but natural.

Pochi sono stati i prodotti visti nel backstage di Prabal Gurung. Pochi ma di certo validi come la Sculpting Powder della Limited Edition Prabal Gurung per Mac Cosmetics, una polvere che Diane Kendal ha usato all over per creare un makeup organico e naturalmente bello che sostenesse la collezione della prossima Primavera Estate dove sport e haute couture si sposano alla perfezione.

Japanese warriors backstage at Hervé Léger SS2015

An Onna-Bugeisha was the inspiration behind the beauty look at Hervé Léger SS2015 show, who, in common words, is a female upper-class samurai known for her strength. Indeed, the women seen on the catwalk were very powerful and, to endorse the collection, the beauty look was exactly right.

Donne forti, donne guerriere. L’ispirazione per la PE 2015 di Hervé Léger è stata niente di meno che un’Onna-Bugeisha, una samurai giapponese che ha dato il là alla creazione di un look potente tanto quanto lei.

BCBG MAX AZRIA SS2015: The perfect fresh-from-vacation beauty look

Backstage at BCBG Max Azria everything was about a fresh-from-vacation look made of gorgeous skin, finger-combed hair and nude nails. Because simplicity always wins.

Earthly shades took the center stage @ Milan Fashion Week AW14

Brown is the new colour to have, at least as far as it concern Milan Fashion Week beauty looks. A similar earthly vibe was noted as well in New York but in Milan it was definitely more evident. Used on cheeks, eyes and lips it could seem old but rather it is wise and, if used properly and with a modern take, it delivers a natural and gorgeous finish.

Marrone è il nuovo must-have in fatto di bellezza. Visto sulle passerelle Newyorkesi si sta riconfermando in questi giorni anche nei backstage Milanesi dove i make-up artist lo stanno usando all over.

Sofisticated, yet naughty London Girls @ Blumarine AW14

At Blumarine it seems they love to maintain the continuity of identity: think of last season’ strong girl and you get the idea of what has been presented for next Fall. In charge of the beauty look, James Pecis and Tom Pecheux reinterpreted the loose bouncy waves and black pencil-rimmed eyes that they had created for SS14.

Da Blumarine amano la continuità di stile e identità: pensate alla ragazza che ha sfilato la scorsa stagione e vi farete un’idea di quella voluta per il prossimo inverno. James Pecis e Tom Pecheux, a capo di hair e make up, hanno reinterpretato le morbide onde e gli occhi cerchiati di nero che avevano presentato per la PE14.

Ronald McDonald and Coco Chanel’ hybrids @ Moschino AW14

Bright and brash, this is all can be said about Jeremy Scott’s Moschino fashion show. Imagine a hybrid of Ronald McDonald and Coco Chanel walking down the runway and laugh out loud. It was funny, indeed, and that was why make-up and hair had to maintain a low profile, which at Maison Moschino it means easy but inspired.

Geniale e irriverente, queste le migliori parole per definire la sfilata di Moschino diretta da Jeremy Scott. Immaginatevi degli ibridi di Ronald McDonald e Coco Chanel cavalcare le passerelle e ridete. Divertente è stato divertente, portabile non so quanto. Ecco perché hair e make-up hanno tenuto un profilo basso (ma comunque denso di significati e ispirazioni, non dimenticate che siamo da Moschino e nulla è lasciato al caso), va bene esagerare ma a tutto c’è un limite.
