Carolina Herrera Fall/Winter 2012: Subtle Makeup & Bouffant Hairstyle

Carolina Herrera’s Fall Winter 2012 collection left us stunned and starry eyed with models flashing ensembles in pretty purples, reds and pinks crafted in wool, jacquard silks, organza and tweed. Though the “insanely cool” element during the catwalk, were the hairstyles and the makeup on the models and it surely spoke of the talent and the hardwork of the makeup artist.

Some sculpting powder along with a swipe of blush was added on the cheeks for a natural flush.  Eyes were kept nude and soft, by a use of sculpting cream on the creases and black cream eyeliner on the lower lashes. Lips were defined with the help of a lip-pencil and finished with a lip conditioner with SPF.

Orlando Pita, the hairstylist, had the models rock the catwalk with big, voluminous bouffant hairstyles secured with a headband. Backcombing was the trick used from the roots to the ends, with smoothing at the hairline. The hair was secured with a black grosgrain ribbon or a fine elastic headband and spray was used in optimum quantity for the hairdo to be held in place. While some models had their hair put free, the others had them tied into ponytails with pretty bows at the back. The models were made to wear the headbands an inch away from the hairline for a younger and a more charming look. Matching to the tones of purple in their outfits, yet not outdoing the reds and the pinks in their outfits, a sweet lavender shade was painted on the models nails, for the girl to be complete in her beauty set.

A perfect blend of go-natural in the makeup with perfectly using the trendy-trend of headbands and creating a whimsical effect which one might not be able to wear on a daily basis, but can definitely put together time and effort for all those red carpet events. With Carolina Herrera, showing us what beauty really meant through these ensembles and the choice of the right makeup and hairstyles, it was very narrow down to our favorites and everything warranted a double stare.
