Mischo Beauty Covers Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week: NARS & Marc Jacobs Spring 2010

The makeup look for the Marc Jacobs Spring 2010 Ready-To-Wear runway show was inspired by the contemporary dancer, Martha Graham- "old-fashioned and theatrical but graceful and precise. This translated into a "left over stage makeup" look for the runway show. The models weren't meant to have perfect makeup- a "just came off-stage" look was the goal and it was achieved!

The focus of the look was the eye. According to Francois Nars, the shape of the eyeliner was most important- it was meant to open the eyes, especially underneath. NARS' Black Moon Eyeliner Pencil was used to enhance the eye.

I loved the soft, muted lip! NARS' Pop Life Velvet Matte Lip Pencil, which is new for Holiday 2009, was used on both upper and lower lips, adding an extra layer to the top lip so that it appeared darker. To view the entire look along with the complete collection, click here.
