The highly sought-after Gorgeous Cosmetics Elite Makeup Artist Team in Australia demonstrated why they are in such high demand last week as they transformed runway models for the KOOKAI Autumn/Winter 2013 Runway Show, entitled ‘The Colour of Night.’

Six Gorgeous Cosmetics Makeup Artists worked alongside the L’Oreal hairdressing team backstage to create high fashion, statement looks for the show, which was held in Melbourne. With 18 models in total to be made over, including top Australian model Nicole Trunfio, Gorgeous were excited to partner with the glamorous Kookai team for the second year in a row.

Head Makeup Artist for Gorgeous Cosmetics, Marika Chen, said the models were given a very on-trend makeup look for the Kookai runway:

• Crimson lips were the feature point, and were achieved by using Gorgeous Cosmetics ‘Siren’ Red Lip Pencil to line and fill in the lips, followed by brand new Gorgeous Lipstick shade ‘Lola’ over the top.
• Flawless, dewy skin caught the light on the runway.  Gorgeous Artists used theirComplexion Perfection trio of base products- First Base Primer, Base Perfect Liquid Foundation and Powder Perfect Pressed Powder.
• Sculpted and contoured cheeks are an autumn trend, and were created using Endless Summer Bronzer and Colour Pro Blush in ‘Sesame’.
• Simple lashes and brows finished the makeup look, with a swish of Gorgeous’ Glamalash Mascara, Nouveaux Brow Pencil and Brow Fix Gel.

“This makeup look is in line with international Autumn/Winter trends, so I’m certain we’ll be seeing this look on and off the runway over the coming months. The bold lips added a vampish style to the textured rich tones of the Kookai fashion pieces, which included leather and lace.”

The Kookai AW 13 Runway Show streamed live on the Kookai website (kookai.com.au) on Thursday 7^thMarch, 2013.
