The Chanel Cruise S/S 16 Seoul show was a favourite for me so I've decided one of my shoots will be based/inspired around it. The makeup for the show was a fun mix on Chanel the top fashion how showing its diversity both culture wise and in fashion standards but also in representing a increasingly popular movement of the K-pop. head makeup artist Tom Pecheux really brought the idea of real life Manga to the catwalk with his makeup creations from the bold brows that are extreme in a way but still completely formed perfectly.The lashes for the look are interesting as some models have dots under the eyes and some have what seems to be false eyelashes at the sides of eyes the looks are both different but both accentuate the eye.
This design I really liked creating. Simple even coverage on the skin with a slight peach bronzing on the cheeks. The lips are a bold orange colour which like the neon pink seen on the Seoul runway I believe the look works because of the similar colour palettes. The liner on the brows is also slightly different and encases the brow joining up at the points. The eye lashes start from the tear ducts and would be created using false eyelashes.
Going for a more unique my own take on the makeup this has been created with the influences of the show and adding green for a more oriental spring fresh look. The lips are a bright pink most probably in the Mac lipstick shade of St.Germain. The eyebrows are also a different touch being single thick lines that cut across the brows into opposite angles. I decided to change the look up a bit to explore and design more I could do with the brows.
This look was the most natural in a sense to the rest. Inspired by the Seoul's makeup inspiration of Manga comics and the artistic and range of characters that an audience can come across I thought of adding detailing to the brows in a different way this time in small circles inspired by mostly Japanese Manga comic and television show Sailor Moon with the blonde brows also and detailing on brows. A line would be formed under the brow to add more structure. The lashes themselves like the first design are cut to shorten dramatically but this time stuck to the ends of the bottom eyelashes like on some of the models for the Chanel Show.
This look is the most developed because its simply my favourite design; its clearly inspired by the Catwalk show with the detailing on the eyes and base coverage with slight blush. The brows are more filled and finish connecting at the point of the brows like a previous design. The eye shadowing that I thought of using was a pink blush and shading from light purples and pinks that I wanted to match with potential clothing ideas and the accessories in the hair that I have draw up and brought. I like the design so much I plan on using it for a now editorial look that makeup is soley inspired by the campaign. My model will have dark/black hair as I believe it will suit the pink playful colour scheming. The hair like on the catwalk will be parted in the middle and detailing on the sides of the head with the spiral pink bobbles being a feature on the hair.
