She prepped Kendrick’s skin with Arcona Skincare (a light all natural moisturizer called Magic White Ice)and used tarte cosmetics’ makeup for the cheeks (Cheekstain in Coral). As for the lips, Glick wanted a soft, healthy pink lip with a bit of shine and she used tarte’s LipSurgency natural lipstain in Charmed as a base, and topped the look with a double ended lipgloss in Samantha.

Kendrick’s face was finished with a touch of lavender spritz mist that also served as a calm aromatherapy.

For the eyes, Glick used Dior eyeshadow to create a “very soft, neutral look with bronze undertones.” She used the Dior 5-Colour Eyeshadow in Sunset Cafe and Incognito and DiorShow Unlimited Mascara.

With sleep in short supply, our eyes tell the tale with dark circles, puffiness, and redness, along with more pronounced fine lines and wrinkles. Dark Circle Defense helps camouflage all of the above with finely milled light-refracting minerals that brighten and smooth the undereye area. Other powerhouse ingredients are honey extract, an anti-inflammatory that helps reduce the appearance of puffiness; vitamin E, an anti-inflammatory emollient that protects against free radical damage; and soybean extract, which effectively moisturizes the delicate eye area. Just as important are the ingredients that aren’t there, including parabens, petrochemicals, phthalates, sulfates, gluten, talc, dye, glycol, GMO’s and fragrance.

We’ve lost count of how many under-eye concealers we’ve tried over the years, but this one does the job. Just one swipe of the brush gives us something that’s eluded us with all other concealers: flawless coverage. On top of that, clinical trials have shown a 56% reduction in eye puffiness after four weeks of use. What this amounts to is an immediate transformation of the eye area coupled with longer-term benefits to the skin. Is that the Hallelujah Chorus we’re hearing in the background?

Retailing at $32, Dark Circle Defense is available in two shades-light-to-medium and medium-to-dark-and includes a brush with synthetic bristles and a wood handle. Find it at tartecosmetics.com, Sephora, sephora.com, and beauty.com.

I went backstage to Abaete this morning, and met with Beauty.com’s Tina Turnbow who did the makeup for Tarte. “I applied lip gloss on the eyelids to create a lovely glassy effect,” she says. “I also used Tarte’s new foundation on the models’ eyebrows. Brush it up and down the brow line and pat it down.” Turnbow says this is the look she wanted: almost nude, with glossy eyelids.

“The clothes are heavy,” she says. “So I wanted the makeup to look light. It’s a contrast and it gives the look a freshness.” The lip and cheek stain in Blushing Bride added a touch of the feminine.

Products used include: Provocateur pressed mineral powder (only on eyebrows); Smooth Operator Oil-Free Natural Foundation SPF 20; Vitamin Infused Lipgloss in Liquid Sunshine (on Eyelids); Rejuvenash (on eyelashes); Hush Lipstick; Lip Balm in “Bee Stung” (on lips).

Redken’s stylist, David, said that since the look of the show was based on post French Renaissance (18th century male characters), the collection looked so “dandified.” “Therefore braids became a part of this,” he says. “The gentleman has a braid in the painting off which the collection is based — Les Incroyables. These are French dandies who wore high collars and shiny lapels…they would be rock stars in today’s society.”

To emulate this look, he created a bit of a mohawk look on the women. “I teased the hair and created a texture…the rest of the hair was in braids and fabric which made it feminine.” He used Redken’s “Fabricate” spray on dry hair and teased the top (which gave the hair shape). Then he used Redken’s “Headplay 12 Pliable Working Spray” to make the hair harder and stiffer.

The nails were done by Creative Nail Designs and all the models wore an eggshell color called “Mystere.” The skincare was by Caudalie.
