MAC A Rose Romance will be available for a limited time starting April 23, 2009: Suggesting sonnets celebrated for centuries: Come into my garden, I would like my roses to see you!” poet Sir Richard Brinsley Sheridan once said, and what lady could resist such flattery?

A tradition in haute-couture, an enduring Icon of Love and certainly the only flower acceptable to throw on stage at the Met or clench between teeth in a Buenos Aires tango salon, the rose remains beyond reproach. M·A·C creates a very modern Rose Romance, our lovely new colour collection for the summer season. Spring buds blush in fragrant new hues when Just A Pinch Gel Blush debuts; Fix + Rose refreshes; and our bring-back favourite fragrance, Creations Hue: Dejarose, whispers anew… But with great beauty there is always pass ion and peril… mind the thorns!

Here’s a recap: Main inspiration for the makeup look at Coventry Fall 2009 is fresh skin, inspired by the movie Legend from back in the day. Ultra beautiful women that been riding on the horse all day. These women have red cheeks from being outdoors in the cold. A little bit of color on their cheeks and mouth and they look absolutlry stunnig gorgeous.

Here are some of the MAC Cosmetics makeup look for London Fashion Week Autumn/Winter 2009:

DESIGNER: Giles
ARTIST: Miranda Joyce

“The collection is quite structured so I wanted the look a bit undone-that’s why we purposely smudged the lip a little bit. It’s a true bright matt-ish red but patted on so you get this soft, sexy, mouth.”-Miranda Joyce.

Eyes: Clear brow set-combed through brows. Plushblack Plushlash mascara-applied lightly to top lashes.

Skin: Studio Sculpt SPF 15 Foundation-blended into the skin. Prep+Prime Loose-Applied to set foundation. Luna Cream Colour Base-Blended as a sheer highlight onto the inner corners of the eyes, bridge of nose, forehead and wrapped around tops of cheek bones to accentuate the nudity of the face.

New York Fashion Week Fall 2009: I was supposed to cover backstage at Tory Burch fashion show during New York Fashion week last week, and for some reason I arrived when the show actually began. I have lots of great show coverage but missed the backstage hair & makeup look. Thanks to Daily Makeover Editors Rachel Hayes and Megan McIntyre, I have the scoop for you!

Tory Burch Goes For Bedroom Beauty: “This is a very sexy, gorgeous look,” says makeup artist Diane Kendal for MAC.  She used a combination of black and gold shadows to create a sultry, smoky eye. “We didn’t use any mascara which gives it an edgier look,” she says. A hint of gold shimmer was also in the soft pink blush. “Gold is definitely a popular metallic accent for this season.” Lips were neutral and glossy thanks to MAC Cremesheen Glass in Boy Bai, a light, pearly beige.

In order to create their drag illusions, these performers spend years training in front of a mirror. It can sometimes take up to six hours for a drag queen to get ready! Each week the contestants undergo a transformation, using their skills with a brush, a lot of colour and concealer to make magic happen. One week, they will even do makeovers on real women, bringing some of the tricks they’ve learned through years of practice to everyday ladies.
