Topsy-turvy: how to turn makeup on its head
Interview, Oct, 2006 by Maureen Dempsey
Last year's mod-laden runways reintroduced the liner-heavy top eyelid, but what about the lonely bottom lash? Leave it to Valentino to turn things upside down. More surreal work of art than face paint, Valentino's optical-illusion makeup at his show for fall 2006 was just as dramatic and bold as the clothing that graced his models.
The expert paintbrush stroke paired with a glistening white eye shadow on the lid offers an intriguing, punklike contrast to the perfectly composed red pout of the lips. So if you're looking for a little drama--and a few double takes--flip your makeup around this fall.
