Show: Tibi
The Look: Cassandra Garcia, makeup artist for Bobbi Brown Cosmetics created a soft look with defined eyebrows.
Products: Longwear Eye Base evened out any pink and yellow tones on eyelids before the crease was defined with Wheat Eye Shadow (neutralizing lids first makes the shadow brighter). Shadow was also drawn along the lower lash line. “As long as we concealed and brightened already, it’s ok to do that,” says Garcia.

Show: Alexander Wang
The Look: Diane Kendal created a look inspired by “a woman who walks into a room and is instantly noticed.”
Products: Some models, about 5 or 6, had their brows bleached and wore no makeup. Others had NARS Larger Than Life Eyeliner in Via Veneto applied to the top and bottom waterline, that was then diffused out with a clean brush. “They wanted a worn-in feel to the makeup,” Kendal told us backstage, like the look of someone who has been up all night partying and has not yet been to bed.

Show: Creatures of the Wind
The Look: Masculine beauty.
Products: The brow was extended and made slightly more round. “The shape is a modern take on Marlene Dietrich’s signature look,” says makeup artist Mark Carrasquillo. Eye pencil leaves a slight shine, so NARS Bali and Coconut Grove Eyeshadows were used instead for a matte look. “I want to bring the penciled-on eyebrow to 2017,” says Carrasquillo. On the lips, balm was applied then removed before models hit the runway.
