Irina Shabayeva Fall 2010 Fashion Show: The Makeup

Irina Shabayeva, the season six winner of Project Runway, debuted her Fall 2010 collection on Saturday, February 13th, 2010, during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week at SIR Stage 37. Kate Bazazian has worked as the makeup key for Irina’s show and she talks to Talking Makeup about the makeup look and inspiration!

“It went through a few different ones until we settled on what walked down the runway. The look started much softer in effect, but with the same ethereal earth tones. A few days before the show, Irina said to me “if we’re gonna make a statement, lets really make it” and that opened it up to a lot more to ideas I had floating around. The line itself was very inspired by flight and what better way to capture that than by making the makeup look as though it was put on by the quill of a feather as well.

Spring Hair Trends with TRESemmé

TRESemmé created three chic looks for Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2010 in NYC.

The Show: Whitney Eve. The Hairstyle: Fun and Flirty Textured Pony.

Hair Tutorial: How to get this hairdo: To coincide with the laid-back, fun-loving feel of the Whitney Eve collection, TRESemmé created a girly, textured pony. Using the right products, this playful look is easy to achieve at home:

1. Apply TRESemmé 24 Hour Body Foaming Mousse to damp hair, and blow dry upside down using a round brush.

2. Spray hair with TRESemmé Thermal Creations Curl Activator Spray, and lightly curl with a 1” curling iron for texture.

3. Gently tease the top of the head towards the front of the hairline for volume.  Using fingers, pull hair back into a ponytail towards the crown, and fasten with an elastic.

4. Create texture throughout the ponytail using hands, and finish with TRESemmé TRES Two Ultra Fine Mist Hairspray.
