Lancôme Makeup Backstage at Chris Benz Spring 2010

Lancome L'Absolu Rouge lipstick in Chris & Tell
Take a look at this picture from backstage at the Chris Benz Spring 2010 fashion show. How gorgeous is that makeup?
I recently spent several days in New York at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, where I must normally fight to unearth tiny shreds of relevance for real women amid all the bizarre, conceptual “beauty.”
Seriously, how does “street urchin” or “teenage runaway” (or black lipstick…or painfully severe bouffants…or pink eyeshadow that mimics illness…) relate to my life or yours? We want to look pretty, not like angry supermodel hobos!
But this fresh-faced, sun-kissed look by Lancôme makeup artist Daniel Martin–defined lashes, softly shimmering, glowy complexion, and those oh-so-lush coral lips!–bowled me over. Finally: a beauty look I actually want to replicate!
The lipstick used here is Lancôme L’Absolu Rouge in Chris & Tell, available in Spring 2010 at Saks. Get on the waiting list at 212-362-4858, or pick up your own coral lipstick (seek one with a bluish undertone to avoid an orange-y harshness.)
Prodigious amounts of mascara (Daniel used Lancôme Hypnose, one of my all-time favorites for mega-drama), coral blush, and shimmering face powder complete the look!
