I was browsing the internet instead of sleeping (thank heavens for concealor) and stumbled on this interview of Martina Luisetti, a make-up artist for MAC, who did the make-up for the fashion show. The advice about "opening your eyes for that dreamy starry look" seemed somewhat dubious to me. Is it really a bit of genius make-up related advice or just plain common sense while awake? I found the breakdown/interview on www.indiwo.com and thought I'd share.


Step 1:
After your base of course, use a shade of burgundy to give your lips that precise definition yet not stark look. The idea is to have your lips looking like rose petals!

Just for your information, if you are travelling abroad pick up a shade of wine red called Artefact by MAC which was used on the models.

Step 2:
Apply on some purple gloss to plump up your lips and give them that sensuous touch.

Step 3:
The eye shape is that cinematic 30s style. So go with soft eye make-up which is very well blended into the eye. Use a blackish eye shadow to create that smoky feeling and add a little shimmer to the eyelid.

If you want the exact shadow of eye shadow, it was Paint Pot Black by MAC that was used on the models.

Step 4:
Apply loads of mascara to your eyelashes to open up your eyes and give them that dreamy, starry look!
