The makeup artists at the recently concluded Delhi Couture Week went the extra mile this year by creating a host of challenging looks for the shows. Here’s some of the ones that got our votes.
Varun Bahl’s show was centered around the lips and artists delicately painted a concentric look in shades of burgundy and red culminating in a gold center. JJ Valaya’s show saw some Spanish influenced rustic romance created by makeup artist Vimi Joshi for MAC. For a similar red lip look, try MAC lipstick in Russian Red. Joshi was also the brain behind the fierce look at Manav Gangwani’s show. Take notes from this look and pair a white eyeliner and a hint of white eyeshadow along your lower lash line with a winged eye look. The feline look also made an appearence at Suneet Verma’s show, except it was softened and toned down with a nude lip and cheeks creating a more sensuous, feminine effect.
Peaches and golds were the code for the day at Adarsh Gill show. Its a look we’d love to try on a lunch date. The boldest look however was at Shantanu & Nikhil show where makeup artist Mickey Contractor crafted a flawless nude face on the models and brought in a striking contract with blackened lips. The look almost makes us want to whip out our black lipsticks hidden deep in our beauty closets and for good reason. Contractor’s tool of choice – MAC lip Pencil in NIght Moth and MAC Lipglass in Dark As Night.
