chienpaints:

I love looking at backstage photos for runway shows for makeup inspiration for myself. Sometimes I also find some ideas that would work great for face-ups, so I’m sharing some of them here from recent shows. :)

Some commentary: I’m super in love with the silver dry brushed onto the brow bone. Can’t wait to do that on a doll! I just love sparkles in general, which is why I like the first look with the very clean eyeliner but lots of silver sparkle. The shimmery smokey eye appeals to me for the same reason. I also really like the soft pink color on the lips and on the edges of the eyes on look  number six. The strong bronzing on the last two looks is perfect for dolls— I think what they chose to highlight looks great at the same time. I love seeing nice brown-toned makeup designs!
