Mischo Beauty Covers Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week: Priti NYC & Thakoon Fall 2011

The nails at Thakoon were soft and oh so pretty! My first thought - SPRING, definitely not fall. But, there are no rules when it comes to beauty- so fall it is! The color is a custom blend of Priti's "Crown of Thorns" and "Moonstone Cactus". To see more backstage beauty and full looks from the show please visit vogue.com.

Mischo Beauty Covers Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week: NARS & Thakoon Fall 2010 Ready-to-Wear Collection

Since we all pretty much HEART anything NARS, I decided to share with you all the makeup look at the Thakoon AW2010 show. Designer Thakoon Panichgul states, "I was inspired by the costumes of Chopinot & Gaultier's Le Defile show and wanted to create a collection that reflected that same era but without the goth element."

"The look is fresh, beautiful, luminous and quite confident, " said lead NARS artist Diane Kendal. "We focused on a strong brow and highlighted the eyes to show depth and boldness in a way that wouldn't fight with the various textures, layers and colors of the collection".

The fall 2010 makeup collection will include the following, which were used in the show:

- Douceur Blush (try Lovejoy or Madly Blushes for a similar effect)
- Coconut Grove Single Eyeshadow (try Bali Single Eyeshadow for a similar effect)
- Tzarine Duo Eyeshadow (try Orgasm Illuminator for a similar effect)
- Portobello Duo Eyeshadow
- Tashkent Pure Matte Lipstick (try Belle de Jour Velvet Matte Lip Pencil for a similar effect)

Mischo Beauty Covers Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week: Wella Professionals & Thakoon Spring 2010

Wella Professionals makes my absolute favorite conditioner in the whole wide world- Power Mask (it's currently the Mischo Beauty Hair Treatment of the Month) and so when I heard they were leading the direction for hair for Thakoon, there was no way I could not cover it! Thakoon's collection is described as "warrior-surf" and so the goal for the hair look was "sumo wrestler meets surfer".

A sleek, tight-to-the-head "seventh samurai" ponytail was sculpted on the top half, while leaving out loose, textured ends in a knot. The bottom half of the hair was left free-flowing, with added waves, down the back.

Customized colored extensions were created for 35 models to add dimension and help form the overall shape. The extensions added blocks of color and a natural color contrast which complemented each models' natural hair color. Eugene Souleiman and Eva Scrivo lead the Wella Professionals Team. You may view the complete Thakoon collection here.
