SHOW: BCBG Max Azria
MAKEUP: Lisa Butler for NARS
MODEL: Constance Jablonski
BEAUTY BOTTOM-LINE: Natural skin, tight-lined eyes—and that’s it!
THE LOOK: It’s the first show we’re covering in the Bryant Park Tents, and already there’s a shocker backstage at the BCBG show: NARS is skipping on the mascara, lip color, and blush! “The emphasis is really on the eyes and skin,” says makeup artist Lisa Butler, who admits, “We don’t want it to get too girlie.” (BCBG’s spring collection is very flowy and ethereal, so they wanted to avert the romantic route.) For a cleaner look, Lisa and team used NARS Oil-Free Foundation as concealer around the eyes and nose to get a fresh, even look. To amp up they eyes, they feathered and framed using the Habenera Eye Shadow Duo and lined the upper inside lids only with a green/gold/brown eyeliner. “We didn’t want to use black,” says Lisa. “This shade adds some hardness without looking too punk rock.” After a squeeze of the lash curler, a light dusting of bronzer around the hairline and jawline, and a bit o’ lip balm, the BCBG beauties were runway ready.
GET IT: NARS Oil Free Foundation, NARS Duo Eye Shadow in Habenera, NARS Bronzing Powder in Casino, and NARS Eye Liner Pencil in Kyoto.

Is it just me or does it look like her eyes are way to far appart, she is not pretty thats for sure.
I love this look and who would have thought the eyes were done with the Habanera duo's mint green and charcoal-plum shadows. It looks really natural and pretty while still enhancing her features. I think she looks great and has really pretty eyes. All models' eyes are wide apart like that, its nothing new.
Andre, i think she is pretty. It's hard to judge the make up if you don't see what she looked like before. I love BCBG though. These dresses look gorgeous. I love BCBG!! I just saw that hautelook.com is having a sample sale on the Max Azria line tomorrow. They have great deals there up to 75% off.
