“Seventies disco punk” was where makeup artist Lucia Pieroni firmly placed the
makeup look backstage at Jonathan Saunders, confirming our suspicions that the
designer’s woman had loosened up from her more precise, uptight beginnings.
“It’s the day after a big night out,” Pieroni elaborated, cuing up a requisite
lived-in liner look of the day-old variety.
Giving skin a “gorgeous, dewy finish” with highlights courtesy
of luminescent shades of MAC Cream Colour Base in Luna and Hush, Pieroni relied
on her trusty MAC Eye Kohl in Smolder, a rich black, to rim lids, slicking on a
touch of grease and smudging the line with her fingers. The pencil was also used
in between lashes, instead of mascara, to enhance the undone feel. Added to this
was a stamped-on bordeaux lip, which Pieroni created with a deliberate etching
of MAC Lip Pencil in Burgundy, a rich wine hue that she was adamant about
keeping in the center of mouths, rather than traced around the edges. “Keep [the
lips] heart-shaped and perfect,” she instructed her team, adding a dollop of
clear gloss in the center of pouts, right before models hit the runway.
“She’s a bit dangerous and has attitude,”
Paul Hanlon elaborated, repurposing the D-word that guided him through much of
the New York shows. Spritzing hair with L’Oréal Studio Matte & Messy Salt
Spray through the mid-lengths, Hanlon worked the product through the ends with
his fingers and a diffuser to bring a natural movement to the look. Random
sections were given a gentle wave to keep them from appearing too uniform. Then,
coating his hands with L’Oréal Studio Silk & Gloss Straight Cream, Hanlon
swept side parts over to the left, sculpting them over one eye to add “mystery.”
Elnett Diamond Hold & Shine Hairspray kept strands in place and flyaways at
bay.
