James Boehmer, NARS Director of Global Artistry, created the look for the Tome AW ‘14 runway show. “The collection has subtle elements of the ‘60s. The beauty muse was the Iranian artist Shirin Neshat and we specifically wanted to capture the spirit of how she wore her eyeliner. This look is a modern interpretation of that, distilled in its simplest form. The definition is only along the bottom lash line and the boyish brow and glowing skin keep the look modern.”

Tanya Taylor

Uzo, NARS International Lead Makeup Stylist, created the look for the Tanya Taylor AW ‘14 runway show. “This season, eyes were brought to the forefront and given a modern, graphic edge by lining them in jet black with an unexpected break in the middle on the lower lash line. Skin is super-clean and fresh with a touch of pale pink on the lips and cheeks.”

DEGEN

OPI joined designer Lindsay Degen for the DEGEN Fall/Winter 2014 presentation. Models wore short, squared tips featuring a blue sky/cloud nail design on all fingers except ring fingers, which were painted with a rainbow atop a chrome, glitter base. The designer selected this bold and colorful nail look to complement bright knits and reflective fabrics. The rainbow theme was continued throughout the clothing and an LED rainbow backdrop.

The nails were created using:

Sky nails — Can’t Find My Czech-book (sky), Alpine Snow (clouds)
Rainbow nails — Push and Shove layered w/Desperately Seeking Sequins (base); Red Hot Rio, Toucan Do It If You Try, I Just Can’t Cope-acabana, Amazon…Amazoff, Dating a Royal, Next Stop…the Bikini Zone (rainbow)

Helmut Lang

Hannah Murray for NARS Cosmetics created the look for the Helmut Lang AW ‘14 runway show. “The Helmut girl this season is tough and masculine with a refined polish. I loved the idea of a rich burgundy wash on the eyelid giving a hint of punk in a very beautiful minimal way.”

Nicole Miller

butter LONDON’s Global Colour Ambassador, Katie Jane Hughes, was backstage to create the nail look at Nicole Miller’s A/W 2014 show. The collection was inspired by strong women warriors. Predominant colors in the collection included dark plum, light olive, wine, aqua and black paired with muted jewel tones.

Katie applied butter LONDON Nail Foundation to the nails followed by butter LONDON Nail Lacquer in Union Jack Black. She then matted the look by applying butter LONDON Matte Finish Topcoat. Using a thin striping brush, Katie applied butter LONDON Nail Lacquer in Knees Up – starting at the cuticle and creating a feather or flame like design along the nail. The shiny finish of Knees Up served as the perfect contrast to the matte black lacquer that popped at the tips.

Tess Giberson

5. Finish by applying a single coat of JINsoon Top Gloss
