Creatures of the Wind NARS Backstage Beauty

Glamazons,

I literally cannot believe it’s New York Fashion Week again already. And yes, I planned outfits and makeup days in advance and I’m STILL in denial. It crept up on me this season but now that it’s here, I can’t wait to drool over the new, exciting trends on the runway and the awesome, mind-blowing makeup backstage.

One of the first looks that made my jaded, 14-season Fashion Week heart skip a beat was at Creatures of the Wind. Aaron de Mey created the most breathtaking look for NARS: gold glitter eyeshadow flanked by the boldest cat-eye evah. Here are the deets!

Inspiration: “The look was inspired by singer, Siouxsie Sioux. She always had a very strong eye look – it had the same spirit, but was applied differently each time. The look is very eclectic with a lot of layering, which plays off the layering in the collection. It’s punk, tough looking. I loved the richness of the gold against the toughness of the black. It’s an updated, modernized take on eyeliner.” Aaron de Mey for NARS Cosmetics
