NYFW Beauty: Katie Gallagher Fall 2012

Hair at Katie Gallagher

The runway presentation at Katie Gallagher was rock and roll  all the way.  The make up included wild bold color on the eyes . I ‘d call it a brighter heroin chic. The hair was  in messy up dos. The models were straight ,ultra thin which fit the look perfectly. Here’s what I found out about the look on hair .

The look overall was inspired by the forest ,trees and nature. T3 tools were used to by lead stylist Cesar Ramirez to create these looks . T3 single pass iron was use to add some texture along with the T3 Featherweight blower . Indique hair ,  a line oof the best hair extensions, were used to fill in with shorter hair. Another product used was actually in the gift bag called Batiste dry shampoo. Batiste was used to soak up  and product buildup. Here’s how Simply spay in Bastiste dry shampoo massage in brush and viola ! Voluminous hair ready to be styled.   Here is a video below on of the styling w/ T3  by Cesar Ramirez .

NYFW Vampire influence on Christian Siriano

Christian Siriano Fall 2012

Christian Siriano showed what was another phenomenal collection of exciting textures and shapes during NYFW . The event was held at Eyebeam studios on February 11th.  The hair and make was kept simple and minimal. In a group session lead artist Polly Osmand  explained the look of the show, the blood red lips and how to get them. Christian himself  did state that he started this collection in a dark mood and was inspired by vampires ! Speaking of vampires sitting front row was Nina Dobrev of the Vampire Diaries enjoying the show. This reporter got a moment with the star and found  out her favorite products are by  ” I love products by La Mer that’s all I use ” said Nina.

 

 

 

The look above was created by lead Make up artist: Polly Osmand  for MAC cosmetics

 

Here are the products used :

MAC Eye Gloss

MAC pro Opulash  in black

Till tomorrow matte lip cream by MAC , and tiny bit of gloss.

I would say this could be described as a dark, creepy  dramatic look . Maybe Christian was channeling his inner vampire to conceptualized this collection … hmmm. There was a light color on the cheeks but clearly the lips are the focal point. Notice the pointed bow shape and blood red color.

Of course you’ll want to do this at home.  All you need to do is just pencil in  the shape desired and fill with your favorite blood red lipstick and top it with a light gloss.

 

 

Spring Summer Fashion Week 2012 NYC -Butter LONDON at Milk Studios

Monday, September 12th, 2011

Well Pretties,  Fashion Week 2012 is in full bloom this week. The first few  days have passed and here is a little bit of what Beautylicious has seen in on the runways.

Spring 2012 we concentrated in offsite shows to get a different vibe from the stodgy Lincoln Center. We are loving what is going on at Milk Studios this season. The  first exposure was the Aldo Lounge  on the ground floor of the MilkMade fashion hub.  Aldo Shoes sponsored the lounge for the duration of fashion week. Here guests were treated to hair touch ups and full color jobs by Bleach salons.  Butter Nails of London was on hand with their full collection for manicure touch ups and polish changes.

 

Backstory, I have noticed  this brand for a while at beauty emporium Ricky’s and fell in love with the bottles and the colours and had to mention my love of  the colours  when I met Nonie.

I  had the pleasure of meeting Butter LONDON creative founder Nonie Creme. Nonie is a spunky woman with a very cool mo hawk you can’t miss.  She is the force behind the custom colours created specifically for shoots , fashion shows, and top beauty editors With her background in art  creating custom colours is the fun part of her job.So far we’ve  have seen Nonie behind the scenes at Erin Featherson and Erickson Beamon presentations.

Here’s Nonie giving me a  peak at the colours used for at the Erickson Beamon show courtesy of Beauty.com

I hear she will create custom colors for Victoria Beckhams show and Betsey Johnson as well.  More on those later , but  first take a look Butter LONDON’s spring /summer collection 2012  inspired by Monet’s palettes.The Spring/ Summer 2011 Collection contains Blagger, Hen Party, Teddy Girl & Lady Muck.

We actually loved Blagger and picked it out  from the manicure bar at Milk.You’ll  find the new crop of colours so easy to wear with your  spring wardrobe.  Find all of these colours and more at   everyone’s favorite beauty site Beauty.com  and www.butterlondon.com  for $14 – respectively.
