Carolina Herrera Spring RTW 2009: MAC
“The look is dramatic but with a softness to it. the inspiration for the collection was Botticelli and the contrast of black and white, so the look is a contrast of a strong eye and a soft lip.” – Diane Kendal for MAC
Eyes: Smolder eye kohl – along lash and blended into crease. Lucky Tom eye shadow – swept across lid and under eye.
Face: Sculpt MAC Pro Sculpting Powder – swept below the cheekbone to contour. Tippy Powder Blush – applied to cheek. Blonde Mineralize Skinfinish – used as a highlight on the cheekbone.
Lip: Nude MAC Pro Cream Colour Base – patted onto lips. Lip Conditioner – patted over Nude Cream Colour Base. Bubbles Lipstick – layered over lip conditioner.

Um, not to put on my Captain Obvious costume or anything...but, aren't those made-up faces kind of the opposite of the paintings? Shouldn't they have a nude eye and a soft pink lip?
It's spelled Herrera.
last model is rocking huuuugeee bags under her eyes.
yeah, i agree. the makeup for this show is the complete exact opposite of those paintings. people need to think outside the smoky eye palette for fierceness or sultriness.
Hi Annie! I really enjoy the non-literal tranlation of the makeup and hair. The juxtaposition of the paintings made me focus on the softer side of traditionally strong smokey eye. If I wanted an obvious comparison I'd do it myself. This - is far more interesting.

I do love me some smoky eyes though. And adored Herrera's Spring offerings.
Thanks Mrs D! I have been slacking off with the editing before publishing again.
Anon: They are but I picked the strong faces.
