EXCLUSIVE: Backstage Beauty at the Chanel Metiers d’Art 2019/20 Show in Paris

Lindsay Judge   |   12-12-2019

The make-up look at Chanel’s recent Metiers d’Art 2019/20 show in Paris was classic with a touch of sparkle.

 

Lucia Pica Chanel’s Global Creative Makeup and Colour Designer created three different looks to complement Virginie Viard’s designs, which were inspired by Gabrielle Chanel.

 

 

Models hair was pulled back in a chic chignon by hairstylist Sam McKnight, while the make-up was all about attention to detail with the addition of touches of sparkle to complete each look.

 

“The sources of inspiration were the beautiful mirror stairs and the craftsmanship of Métiers d’Art. I wanted to play with texture and materials.”

Said Lucia Pica, Chanel’s Global Creative Makeup and Colour Designer.

 

 

Firstly, skin was prepared with Chanel’s Hydra Beauty Micro Gel Yeux, Hydra Beauty Mirco Serum and La Solution 10 De Chanel. Next, Les Beiges Water-Fresh Tint was applied to the skin with a foundation brush to create a radiant complexion. Next, the Pallette Essentielle was used to conceal, highlight and contour before the looks were created.

 

 

There were three individual make-up looks in total, each with its own unique highlights. All of the looks had a touch of sparkle. The first saw an intense silver eyeshadow brushed over the lids to create a retro look while For the second look Pica applied subtle crystals to the inner corner of the eyes,  and the third was completed with a rich burgundy lip.
