Nails- Patty Yankee for Dashing Diva
Hair-1976
Make-Up- Romy Soleimani for MAC-"Healthy 70's Golden Sunset"
ELIE TAHARI is known for his chic, trend on urban friendly clothes that are for gals wanting a pulled together sophisticated look...for work, and evenings out in particular.
And so--- the backstage beauty for his Spring 2012 reflected the no-fuss/posh/polished with some sparkle- that played up the neutrals---and included for the eyes-a new deliciously golden hue that seems to work just fine on the variety of skin tones==== of the very nice cast of models ---from various ethnic backgrounds.
Patty Yankee led the Dashing Diva team---with nails- a flattering almond shape ---because it "elongates the nail."
With over a 150 colors, and the so cool-metallic full cover "Design Nails On the Go," (our college age nieces are "so obsessed")--- Dashing Diva nail polishes match up with any skin tone or mood with its patented formula that is highly chip-resistant...and its eponymous salons are all around the world.
In contrast 1976-which got its moniker:
1 Location
9 Station
7 Staff
$6(000) start-up funding...and was making its NYFW debut.
We're sure the long tresses of the models appreciated the green lean of the ingredients in these hair goodies---including the Amazon Therapy Oil---just a few drops needed...smooths and nourishes dried out ends.
MAC Cosmetics had all the cat-walkers glowing-
No doubt, all the models looked amazinfg without make-up---they're models after all---but we loved the subtle, healthy sheen emanating from clear skin left fairly alone---
WHAT ELSE:
Other skincare favs always find their way onto make-up tables no matter the sponsoring brand---here La Roche - Posay Thermal Water spray, Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Creme Skin Protection and Jurlique cleansers and mists...
