CHANEL · Backstage Beauty Spring/Summer 2023 Ready-to-Wear Show

 

 

You guys, it’s not even Christmas, yet the spring 2023 beauty trends are already rolling out and first out of the gate is CHANEL with the Spring/Summer 2023 Ready-to-Wear Show. Inspired by the 1961 movie L’Année Dernière à Marienbad by Alain Resnais, Virginie Viard sent looks down the runway that were the very expression of freedom of movement. I can honestly say that this was the first runway show where every.single.exquisite look 100% took my breath away. But we’re here for the beauty, am I right?

CHANEL · Backstage Beauty Métiers d’Art Show 2021

 

Every year CHANEL pays tribute to the virtuoso hands behind all the exquisite details that go into each creation with the Métiers d’Art show, with the 2021/22 Collection held at Le 19M — the new venue where all of the Maison’s artisans are currently housed. Initiated by Coco Chanel herself, this endeavour helps to preserve the incredible skills of several hundred artisans, while also shaping new specialists to further these time-honoured traditions. The beauty look was both avant-garde and timeless … and you can bet that I’ll be trying my hand to recreate it. Wish me luck.

Laura Mercier · Light Catcher Loose Powder

 

Laura Mercier’s original setting powder has earned a well-deserved reputation as a must-have item in basically every makeup artist’s kit. Now this cult-fave product comes in a new “light-creating” finish and in 3 tones to suit a wider range of complexions. I personally am not one to set my makeup on the regular, but I’ll have to make an exception for something as pretty as this, no? Plus it’s the holiday season where a bit of sparkle is always a good thing!
