We have three breakdowns straight from the amazing artists at MAC HQ from Day 2 of Fashion Week!
“The look is a fresh face with a hint of coral – a girl who is too young to wear makeup.” – Gordon Espinet
Eyes: Girl Boy or Clear brow set – brushed against the hair to create a textured brow.

Face: Redhead mineralize skinfinish – blended onto cheek bones. Sculpt sculpting powder – applied under cheek bones for a contour. Pearl cream colour base – patted on to the tops of the cheek bones for a highlight.
Lips: Not So Shy lipstain – delicately pressed onto lips.
“She is the dolly from the attic. She’s Gretel from Hansel & Gretel who knows a little more than she did before she went into the woods.” – Gregory Arlt
Eyes: Seedy Pearl eye shadow – brushed across the lid. Phloof! eye shadow – as a highlighter brushed under the eyebrow, along the side of the eye and down the bridge. Reflects Transparent Teal – a dot on the finger pressed onto lid. Quarry eye shadow – lightly applied to the crease of the lid. Plushblack plush lash mascara – applied to the tips of curled lashes.
Face: Strobe Cream – massaged into the face. Face and Body foundation – a sheer application to even out skin tone. Dame & Well Dressed powder blush & Seedy Pearl eye shadow – blended to create a healthy glow on the apples of cheeks.
Lips: Girl About Town and Pink Nouveau lipstick – blended together and brushed onto the lips. Clear pro longwear gloss coat – layered on top of lipstick.
What is this Redhead MSF they speak of!!!! And Gold Dark pigment?? Eek!
I´m sooo curious too.
yes, yes. and the ‘girlboy’ brow set….interesting indeed!!!
That product (the Girl Boy Brow Set) is currently available. It seems like it’s just a light brown color. Nothing special. I am curious about the haircolor MSFs though. Interesting to put something related to hair color on your face. I wonder if it helps your facial tone compliment your hair color.
Brow Set can be really useful if you have brows that don’t stay in place – I love Clear Brow Set, personally.
I heard something through the grapevine that there might be a winter launch where these would fit, otherwise you’ll probably see ’em in the spring.
This is already out 🙂
I imagine it’s something we’ll see in Spring 2009. I saw Dazzlelash back in February, and I believe that is coming out pretty soon. Sounds like a blonde/redhead/brunette theme, though!
o.m.g! i love the ruffian style! all look gorgeous!
Glad you found that look appealing, Danielle 😉
first one’s a favourite! 🙂
Will you try the look, do you think?
Love the Kaliardos’ creation for Ruffian. So gorgeous!
Me too, Nana!
Kaliardos’ for Ruffian looks a lot like the current NARS fall look….
Interesting, I didn’t notice before!
