Make-Up For Spring

Backstage Beauty

Powder is back. The new glow is not about metallic shine. The super highlighted glass skin looks dated. The new look is about radiant skin. “Now, with new technology driven powders you can be matte and luminous,” explains Linda Cantello, Giorgio Armani make-up artist. The trend is a desire for a simpler, polished aesthetic. The long-time idea of ageing, drying formulas meant they lost their appeal. There’s a new generation of powders beautifully milled to blur, hydrate, and mattify while still enabling “the glow”. Powders are now better, the technology is extraordinary, and they give skin a lasting, neutral luminosity. To Get The Look: Powder down the middle of the forehead, between brows, and the sides of the nose.
