April 2012- Harvard University Identities Fashion Show
As Rihanna and Madonna (link) are playing in the background
the other makeup artists and I are laughing and enjoying the crazy energy behind the scenes...and we are working it!! :-)
There were two looks for the girls in the show...one was peachy and bronze...the other more ethereal with soft pinks and lilacs.
We applied the matte powder for the guys, which was very clean and minimal ...even they need makeup..sometimes...
There were so many girls of color..I was so inspired and truly loved the diversity I saw..it was beautiful. As a woman of color, I was so happy to be apart of this moment..and to see the diversity and how the makeup was just as beautiful on everyone...
Growing up in Cambridge, I've been blessed with having
many classmates, friends and coworkers of many diverse cultures. And then to see that on the runway was magical....
My favorite Maybelline mascara is Volume Express Falsies,
but right now I'm using the new Cat Eyes..love it! :-)
