It’s freezing cold in Brand-new York City ideal now. Yesterday’s reduced was 1 degree Fahrenheit, and it would certainly be an understatement to say that my face is dry. Lucky for me, I don’t have actually to adjustment my makeup 6 times a day the means lots of of the models at fashion week do. Well early this morning (like, 7:30 a.m. early), once the temperature joined the higher teens, I discovered myself backstage at The Row (Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen’s line) where the models’ skin glowed as if it were 85 degrees and sunny out. I stood in awe for a moment then cornered makeup artist Tom Pecheux for his secret.
“Over the last 3 days, the last two especially, it’s enjoy the models’ skin is burned from the wind and cold, and we’re fighting along with the dryness of the [indoor] heat,” said Pecheux. That’s once I spotted two pretty under-the-radar products at his station alongside heaps of perfectly organized M.A.C. makeup: Avène Cicalfate Repair Cream (a French pharmacy brand staple) and Butter Elixir Face Oil (a small batch blend of rose-hip, apricot, and argan oils). once a model comes inside from the blustery cold, the very first thing Pecheux does is massage the oil in to her face then layer on the cream. “The 2 job truly well together,” he said. after that the beauty editor in me required me to point out that dermatologists usually recommend moisturizer then oil due to the fact that the properties of the latter stay clear of moisture from reaching the skin, to which he replied, “The scientists are scientists. Just what I’m looking for is results.”
The outcomes are gorgeous and in turn, the remainder of the makeup glows. For the majority of the shows so far, makeup artists have actually skipped foundation and just used concealer as necessary, Yet Pecheux used a bit of M.A.C. Waterweight Foundation on these girls. It seemed to sink ideal in, which is probably due to the fact that the product is so lightweight, Yet Pecheux swears that a large portion of it because of his heavy-duty prep job. “You can easily have actually the a lot of beautiful skin, Yet if it’s dry, also a lot of expensive foundation will certainly not work. Unfortunately, there’s zero magical in foundation.”
