If you’re wondering how DL1961 managed to turn out a streamlined-looking collection without selling out its everygirl appeal, the credit’s due, in part, to makeup artist Matthew Sky and hair stylist Andrea Wilson. The pair developed a beauty look which consisted of sexy, retro makeup paired with messy sidebraids. Along with their teams of makeup artists, Sky and Wilson adapted the overall beauty concept to each individual model.
Sky’s Sixties makeup look balanced the modern hair: “I did a retro sexy lash, where it was stronger on the outside corner. We did a neutral eye, where it was defined in the brow bone area. There was a really shimmery white shimmer-dusty powder on the outside lid. We did a very extravagant line on the upper eye, extending almost to the brow. Underneath the eye there was almost no makeup at all, just at the corner a little bit of espresso brown. The skin was really glory, with a highlighter above the cheekbone and a little flush. The lips were done in a nude, where we beiged out the lips and added a pop of pink in the middle, and on top of that we put lip gloss, so you could see it from far away.”
