SEPHORA New York Fashion Week S/S 2011

Published: 2010-09-24 by Ines Markovic in Makeup

The artistry of the Sephora PRO Beauty Team shaped beauty trends during S/S 2011 New York Fashion Week by creating looks for Charlotte Ronson and assisting at EDUN and Dennis Basso. The sophisticated twists on the models’ natural beauty will be an easy beauty staple next season.

Based on the ‘80s-inspired Charlotte Ronson collection, the makeup look reflected a mix of grunge, natural and organic, using little color on the face and emphasizing natural skin tones.

"We want to make it look like they did their own makeup for stomping around at Burning Man," explains Sephora PRO Beauty Lead artist, Gilbert Soliz. "By not covering their faces in color, we're using their flaws to our advantage."

To create the look, the Sephora PRO Beauty Team, led by Gilbert Soliz, used the following products:

- Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer

- Make Up For Ever Sculpting Kit

- Smashbox Bronze Lights Suntan Matte Bronzer

- Sephora Collection Professional Clear Natural Mascara

EDUN, 9/11/2010, Cue Art Foundation
The EDUN collection was based on organic looks and materials so the corresponding makeup was very natural. This look is accessible to all women and reflected the feeling of the collection.

“The collection was focused around unique and accessible styles, so we used this angle to create a makeup look that was really organic, monochromatic, very raw and effortless," explained Sephora PRO Team Lead, Gilbert Soliz.

To create the face, makeup artist Lisa Butler, supported by Gilbert Soliz and the Sephora PRO Beauty Team, used the following products:

- Make Up For Ever 5 Camouflage Cream Palette in No. 4

- NARS Orgasm Illuminator

- NARS Cream Blush in Cactus Flower

Dennis Basso, 9/14/2010, The Stage, Lincoln Center
The futuristic, youthful cut of the S/S 2011 Dennis Basso collection inspired a “wide-eyed pixie” makeup look defined by a clean complexion and flashes of color on eyes and lips.

“The goal was to create a very feminine yet defined eye with a pop of color. Combining bright blues and oranges with the bespoke application of false lashes, we were able to complete this sophisticated look,” says Jose Rivera, Sephora PRO Beauty Team Principal.

To create the face, Kabuki, supported by Jose Rivera and the entire Sephora PRO Beauty Team, used the following products:

- Make Up For Ever HD Invisible Cover Foundation

- Sephora Collection Blush Me! Mono in Peche Tendre 04

- Sephora Collection Waterproof Smoky Cream Liner in The Deep End, Electric Teal and Rags to Riches

- Sephora Collection Colorful Mono Eyeshadow in Coffee Brown and City Fog

- Make Up For Ever Eyelashes - Individual

- Sephora Collection Nano Eyeliner in Golden Sand 07

- Sephora Collection Colorful Artist Lipstick Palette

- Sephora Collection Ultra-Shine Lip Gloss in Perfect Nude 20
