According to Carboni, there was one unifying goal with the makeup that reflected what she calls the "Gucci mood," and that was creating a "sun-kissed Italian look that was bronzed and tan." It's why they zipped through warm and glow-y base makeup, fast, and self-tanner on set.
"For the men, I used a lot of the Chanel Boy de Chanel Foundation ($55) as a makeup base, and of course we used the warmest color. Then, my favorite product to give that subtle tan is the Tom Ford Bronzing Gel ($57). I use that on top of the makeup and it gives a kind of sheer and translucent effect, so it's not cake-y, because making someone look tanned without making it look [fake] is the key."
Carboni rotated between a handful of other bronzing products — from NARS Bronzer Powder in Laguna or Casino ($38) to Surratt Beauty Dew Drop Foundation ($75) to Trish McEvoy's Beauty Balm ($87) — depending on each cast member's skin type and undertone, layered meticulously for the most natural-unnatural-looking effect.
