Backstage at Yoana Baraschi, butter LONDON’s Global Colour Ambassador, Katie Jane Hughes, created a bold makeup look to compliment the spring/summer 2015 collection. The makeup look, which was inspired by bold African sunsets, was complimented by hair by RUSK Artistic Director Gerard Caruso, who created “messy, but not so messy buns.”

The Makeup Look:


Skin: Skin was prepped with butter LONDON Hydrating Balm. Hughes then mixed butter LONDON Tinted Highlighter in Twit with moisturizer and applied to the high points of the face followed by a touch of concealer to even out skin.

Cheeks: Contour cheeks using butter LONDON Cream Bronzer in Bit Faker on hollows of the cheeks and temples.
Lips: Line lips with red lip liner and apply butter LONDON Moisture Matte Lipstick in Ladybird on bottom lip. Pop butter LONDON Moisture Matte Lipstick in Come To Bed Red, concentrating in the center and working towards the sides.

Eyes: Apply butter LONDON Hydrating Balm on lids. Draw a graphic line with butter LONDON Eye Pencil in Alabaster Gaze following the contour of the eye. Apply butter LONDON Eye Pencil in All Hail The Queen (available spring 2015) under the lower lash line for a natural darkness. Lastly, apply butter LONDON Mascara in Union Jack Black to lashes concentrating on the roots.

Brows: Lighten brows with concealer, then apply butter LONDON Tinted Highlighter in Pence to the inner brows.
