The Show: Altuzarra

The Look: Crazy maybe—Estée Lauder makeup artist Tom Pecheux darkened lids with a charcoal cream shadow and smudged red shadow under the lower lashes in such a way that suggested "maybe she's just been crying, maybe not," said Pecheux. For the hair, Paul Hanlon, working for Schwarzkopf Osis, added a further note of ambiguity to the story with his good girl/bad girl hair which he described as “bougie, but slept-in.”

The Products: MAC Love’s Lure Eyeshadow (out in March), Schwarzkopf Osis Buff Styling Cream, Butter London Nail Foundation.

The Tricks: Pecheux applied red shadow on the lower lid from the outer corner to the center of the eye.

The Scoop: Even though the nails were supposed to just look clean and buffed, manicurists from Butter London used skin tone colored polishes. Why? Apparently models’ nails take so much abuse during fashion week that they start to thin, and buffing the nails can actually hurt.
