Gucci Westman is a genius. She’s the makeup equivalent to Donald Trump minus the bad hair and reality TV tag lines. And, as the Creative Director for Revlon she created the worlds’ best brows at Jason Wu’s A/W 09 show. Making them gloriously dark, perfectly shaped and just the right thickness. The makeup was pretty cool, too.
Here they are:
Yes, they are ridiculous aren’t the Primpers. I love them too. What makes them so perfect is the colour (Dark. Bold. Perfect) and the shape (Not too thin. Slightly peaked. Brilliant). If you’re wondering how you can get brows like this, read this tip and trick or this one if you want to know how to add colour.
Gone are the days of thin, colourless brows. This is the second season that we’ve enjoyed thicker, darker forehead accessories and it’s thrilling. Just read Zo’s blog on how your brows can be making you ugly for even more reasons to embrace this trend.
Anyway, back to Wu. Gucci wanted to the models to look airy but strong. So she lightened their skin with a lighter foundation and darkened their brows with Revlon’s ColourStay Brow Liner, $19.95. She also added a violet lipstick on the models cheeks (that she developed just for the shows) to help give them a sweeeet, fresh flush, proving that lipstick doesn’t just need to be for your lips, Primpers.
