Richard Nicoll SS13 beauty look

Richard Nicoll SS13 beauty look

This look for the Richard Nicoll Spring Summer 13 show is teenage radiance.

Not really a look that we can achieve by waking up and walking out the door, so we have the tips from UK Max Factor make-up artist Mel Arter who created the look for the runway. 

She says: "Skin has the appearance of health and vitality. They are girls that don't have to make much effort. They are naturally in the prime of their youth."

Here's how you can recreate the look:

SKIN - prepped with Olay Total Effects Fragrance Free Day Cream moisturiser which is massaged into the skin.  Skin should be as organic as possible. Minimal product used only where needed. Not to be applied on cheeks. Skin is to remain fresh, product traceless. Max Factor 3 in 1 Flawless Foundation is applied. No powder needed. Bodies are moisturised.

EYEBROW – are combed up and left natural.

EYES - lids are enhanced with petroleum jelly only which is applied to a clean, product free lid. Brow bone to remain dry. Liquid Effect Pencil in Black Fire applied inside lower lash line only. Lashes are curled and defined with two coats of False Lash Effect Mascara in black.

CHEEKS – are to be pinched in the line-up for authentic ruddiness.

LIPS - six girls will have Colour Elixir Lipstick in Bewitching Coral applied and blotted heavily until texture is matt. Remaining girls will have a natural mouth slightly washed over with natural balm. No glossiness at all.
