MAC
SS15 TREND FORECAST PALETTES
F
rom the fashion weeks around the
world, MAC brings us the latest make-
up trends in the format of eyes, cheeks
and lips palettes. The new modern
sophisticated, classic colours choice were
based on natural pastel wash to stained,
delicate smoke effect on the eyes, to ‘90s
inspired neutrals and chic blue-toned
red on the lips. The collection came in
three delicious, limited edition palettes
for eyes, lips and cheeks, and for those
that could not get their hands on them,
the colour scheme will be there for the
next spring/summer season around next
year. In the meantime, here are a selection
of MAC face charts and images by
some of the most talented artists in the
fashion industry, created and showcased
at the catwalks around the world and
the tools and products used which will
give us not only a chance to get closer
to our favourite designers but also to
experiment and recreate those awesome
looks for the next season to come or
whenever we wish to be a little bit more
‘avant-garde’.

“Inspired by Jerry Hall”
To achieve this sultry, sexy eye look, Lucia applied Pro-Longwear Paint
Pot in Clearwater around the lash line, on the top and bottom, followed
by MAC Pro Hi-Def in Cyan and Pro PureWhite Pigments, blending well
all around the eyes to create a sultry smokey effect. Haute and Naughty
Too Black Lash Mascara finishes the look. Lips are created by applying
Relentlessly Red followed by Lady Danger Lipstick for a full-on red impact.

DSQUARED2 make-up by GORDON ESPINET: “Geek girls
dressing Glam”
This glam look was created by applying Power Player to stain the outer
upper eyelid followed by Lightly Tauped Eye Gloss, both from MACTrend
Forecast Spring 15/Eyes. Build the mascara up by using Black In Extreme
Dimension Lash throughout for a full, intense glammed-up finish. For
natural but defying lips, simply apply a touch of Soar Lip Pencil over
natural pale lips.

PETER PILOTTO make-up by LUCIA PICA: “Effortless raw
beauty with a matte porcelain veil”
To create this eye look, Lucia used Pro-Longwear Paint Pot in Painterly
over the eyelids and blended into the brow area, followed by Clear
Brow Set Gel over the eyebrows to set and groom the hair. Omega and
Copperplate Eye Shadows were then blended together with Prep+Prime,
and applied on top of the set gel to create definition and perfectly shaped
brows, with plenty of mascara to finish off the look. The lips were kept
super natural with Lip Conditioner patted all over the lips.
NYFW 8TH SEPTEMBER
THOM BROWNE make-up by SIL BRUINSMA: “60’s
Twiggy Style Look with lashes, lashes lashes…”
This eye make-up was created by drawing a line with Ebony Eye Pencil
through the upper lash line and extending it to the edge of the eye corners
and then tracing over the eye crease for that famous ‘60s look. Rapid
Black Penultimate Eye Liner was then applied over the eye pencil lining for
definition and blended gently for a smokey, slept-in effect. Chromagraphic
Pencil applied inside the waterline opens the eyes, creating a lovely
contrast. The eye look could not be finished off without Lash in 36 and
7 applied over the upper lash-line and Lash in 3 over the lower lash-line,
followed by MAC Charged Black Mineralize Multi Effect Mascara.The lips
were created with Crème D’Nude Lipstick followed with C-Thru Lipglass
for a glossy, shiny finish.
