PHILOSOPHY
In the mood for some ‘apple cherry kisses’ (as the Nao song goes)? We’re really feeling the deep cherry stained gloss that Philosophy is bringing this SS. Lorenzo Serafini, naturally, knows how to step the allure up any season — and just in case you wanted to channel some Philosophy vibes of your own this summer, why not experiment with W7’s lip and cheek stain, with a coat of Glossier’s Lip Gloss, for good measure? (You’re welcome).
To begin with, Emporio Armani came through with mermaid vibes for SS18. Smokey eyes were given an ethereal touch of silver with emerald lower lashlines, to accompany the models’ ultra-dreamy waves. We’re seriously all
BYBLOS
Byblos was all about statement looks this SS. With those dramatic tones of neon orange adorning the models’eyes, this is one for the girls who don’t want to go unnoticed. Makeup artist Terry Barber applied strokes of hi-vis-coloured paint across the models’ lids, expressing that he “wanted it to look like it had been done with a fat paintbrush in just one stroke”. Sometimes, bolder is better — so let’s express ourselves this summer.
MILA SCHÖN
The sandy smoke at Mila Schön was just the touch of warmth we needed, along with nude lips and dewy faces illuminated with highlighter. The look was finished with a thick smear of peach, gradually spread across the lids. You can recreate this look with MAC’s Eye Shadow in Soba, to embrace that air of spontaneity, perfect for a day out.
ALEXANDER MCQUEEN
Taking a step away from the classic cat-eye, McQueen brought that subtle but lasting allure of glossy skin with smokey eye this season. Caressed with naturally blushed tones for an everyday French-girl definition, rose-tinted lips with a deep coal smudge-effect, gave way to that late-night / early-morning feel. Why not embrace a sultry air of ‘bedroom eyes’ this summer?
