Charlotte Ronson Fashion Week Backstage Learning About Beauty from Maybelline, Milani and Avon!

Backstage at Charlotte Ronson, one of our fave designers, we learned about the hair and makeup for her 2009 runway show. For hair, which was done by Avon using Advanced Techniques products, Charlotte wanted it to look like the girls had just left dance class, a little disheveled  and chaotic. They used the Voumizing Hairspray, which provided a flexible hold. The little pieces were intentionally left out framing the face to show your average girl and her natural beauty. The models looked gorgeous because well, they’re models. I’m not so sure I’d be able to pull the natural beautiful disaster messy look but they did it well.

Nails were done by Milani. They used Creme Brulee. A sheer, light neutral nail. Semi-opaque and very short and natural (no shimmer).

Makeup was done by Charlotte Willer for Maybelline. She drew inspiration from NYC chic meets ballet dancer. She used Mineral power, illuminating mineral power and a generous dusting of mineral power blush in gentle blush color. For lips the girls wor color sensational lips #15.For lashes they wore Lash Stiletto.
