Beauty Board

The experimental, product-loving, wannabe makeup artist inside of us is over the moon about the slew of compelling beauty looks that debuted on the fall runways. While we haven’t broken out our teasing combs to try sexy sixties hair yet, we did spend part of our Saturday afternoon mastering our new favorite trend—panda eyes. (click image to enlarge)

Lanvin

McGrath first perfected the models’ skin with liquid foundation and concealer. She uses MAX Factor ColorGenius Foundation ($9.49) or Dior DiorSkin Forever Extreme Wear Flawless Makeup ($42), as well as the makeup artist favorite, Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage ($28). Then she dusted a colorless loose powder, Shu Uemura Face Powder Matte ($33), on the skin to give it a matte finish. For the eyes, she blended black cream shadow, specifically Dior Eye Show in Glam & Glitz Black ($30), on the lid and up to the crease, in an extended oval shape (it’s so panda-like!). Next, she lined the lower lid with a black eye pencil; try Givenchy Magic Khol Eye Liner Pencil in Black ($21.50). Using a wet eyeliner brush, McGrath applied the silver shade in CoverGirl Eye Enhancers 4-Kit Eyeshadow in Drama Eyes ($5.49) to the inner eye corners and added sheen to the upper lid with a smidge of Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream ($16).

Brows were lightly defined with Kevyn Aucoin The Precision Brow Pencil ($24); try CoverGirl Brow & Eye Makers in Soft Brown ($2.69) for a similar look. Then she used NARS Blush in Zen ($25) to contour cheeks and highlighted both cheeks and brows with the nude beige shimmer of NARS The Multiple in Copacabana ($37). Finally, McGrath lightly brushed NARS’ Concealer ($21) on the models lips for a nude mouth.

Balenciaga

Again, McGrath started by perfecting the skin (see all her favorite products above in Lanvin). Next she lined the entire eye with black pencil, CoverGirl’s Perfect Blend Eyeliner in Basic Black ($3.99), and smudged it to softer the effect. Then, using a soft shadow brush, she blended black eye shadow, specifically Stila’s Matte Eye Shadow in Makalu ($18), over the pencil liner. McGrath then added NARS Cream Eyeshadow in Zardoz ($21) across the upper lid. She applied a bit of gloss to the center of the lid for a wet shine (again, Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream, $16). The look was finished with Kevyn Aucoin’s The Sculpting Powder in Medium ($42) on the cheekbones and a light coat of MAX Factor Erace Concealer ($3.99) on the lips.
