Created Effortless Makeup During Market Week For Donna Karan International

http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js_uacct = “UA-3446372-1”; urchinTracker();

During Donna Karan International Market Week I created a different makeup look each day. It’s always easy to execute the looks that I have in my creative head when working with gorgeous canvas. 

Today’s look was inspired by my love for exotic locations like Capri. An island in the Tyrrhenian Sea off the Sorrentine Peninsula, on the south side of the Gulf of Naples in the Campania region of Italy. 

I love to see beautiful women made up but effortless makeup is best. So I selected products from L’OREAL Paris, Stila Cosmetics, and Nicka K New York. This is my twist on a modern day Capri Girl visting New York, wear Donna Karan, rocking Paul Andrew sexy shoes.

My makeup palette for today’s look. I wanted rich warm brown  and coral colors so I selected makeup items from L’OREAL Paris, Stila cosmetics and Nicka K New York to create the makeup looks for Donna Karan Market Week.

Effortless L’OREAL Paris Spring Makeup At Project Runway During Fashion Week

http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js_uacct = “UA-3446372-1”; urchinTracker();

Yesterday Project Runway call time for hair & makeup was 4:30am. Regardless of how early the call time is every year, I always look forward to doing makeup at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week. Getting booked to work New York Fashion Week always excite me. 
One of the makeup looks for the morning show was an effortless look. It was all about minimum foundation with luminous skin. No eyeliner, no powder, no contouring, no highlighting, and no lashes.
To pull of the fresh face makeup look, I used 1 drops of L’OREAL Paris Day Lotion, 1 drop of L’OREAL Paris True Match Lumi Foundation, and 1 drop of L’OREAL Paris Magic Lumi. I mixed all 3 products on my palette and I used my fingers to apply to the model face. A perfect spring look; young, soft, and fresh.

I miss Michael Kors on this season Project Runway so I decided to wear my Michael Kors vest

I really luv this effortless look, Magic Lumi Primer is amazing to achieving that luminous look
