Makeup Tips From New York Fashion Week Fall 2017
What I Learned as a Makeup Artist From Other Lead Makeup Artists Backstage at NYFW

It's no surprise that we're seeing lipsticks used in various ways on the runway. Gato used the same lipsticks that were used on the cheeks on the center of the eyelids as well. He primed the eyes with Maybelline's soft pink shade from the Blushed Nudes Eye Shadow Palette, and then lightly tapped both lipstick colors on the center of the lid for a light stain.
Funny enough, I actually have a celebrity client who loves a pinkish blush color in the center of her eyelids, so this isn't so far-fetched! I could also see how a lipstick would adhere easily to the eyelid and offer some texture to an eye look.
And just like that, this season of New York Fashion Week came to an end! It always feels like whirlwind. I have to say, this was one of the most interesting experiences for me, as I've never been backstage not doing makeup! This project also reinforced my admiration for all of the talented, hard-working teams that continue to keep fashion alive and continue make these stellar presentations happen season after season. Hopefully these innovative and exclusive makeup tips and techniques will inspire you create your own runway looks at home!
