I love makeup but don’t usually like shopping for it and I often rely on the makeup artists that I work with for their advice and suggestions. This time I just wanted to venture out on my own so I thought I’d pay Illamasqua on Beak Street a visit. The staff was very helpful and very knowledgeable. It’s surprising how often you can go to a cosmetic counter and you just feel like the staff is trying to push products on you. The makeup artist was so good that I just wanted to buy everything (it doesn’t hurt that the products are so reasonably priced too!) I’m also looking forward to the launch of ‘Toxic Nature‘, their new makeup range.

Alex Box did blue lips for Hannah Marshall’s A/W2010 catwalk show. Generally I don’t like blue lips, every makeup artist loves doing them but usually badly…
The makeup for Hannah’s show was beautiful. Alex used Mac Pro Lip Mix in blue blended with Lip Mix in black. The contours of the face and the silvery highlighter completed the look and the blue lips look beautiful and other worldly.

Mei-Hui Liu of VIctim always does an incredible show. She works with the same people that she has for years – she very loyal and her friends are very loyal to her. Dejan Cekanovic and Dirk Walther from Premier did the hair. Alex Box from D&V Management did the make-up – every year she just does something amazing. It’s not surprizing that she’s coming out with her own line of make-up in November of this year.
This collection is fun and playful. Bright fun colourful tutus with Victorian jackets and the coolest shoes and gloves that you’ll ever see.
Natasha Marro has become shoe designer extraordinarie, you’ll see her in Italian Vogue and on the feet of some of the coolest people
