BEHIND THE BEAUTY: Alexandra Groover A/W 09

written by Brandy Gomez-Duplessis

California designer Alexandra Groover’s (AW09/10) off scheduled fashion show at London Fashion Week makeup look was very futuristic but very minimal. The models were dressed in black garments with structured shape and voluminous silhouettes. The makeup was very dark (my favorite) with a clean face and light lip. The eye shadow the models wore down the catwalk was black with a shimmering grey eye shadow to soften the eye. The liquid foundation used was Benefits Non Fiction and a little of Moonbean mixed with the foundation to create a more pale look. Moonbean was also used on the lips and Baby Cake was added through the brows. The eyes were finished with Badgal Waterproof Eye pencil and light application of Lust Dust for a metallic shimmer.

This is more of a new take on smoky eye, more space age with a glam gothic vampire look. So let’s see when this look will make it to the USA and NYC Fashion Week.
