Life in Colour: Maybelline at NYFW
By Beaut.ie  | Feb 18, 2015

Our heads are so filled with beautiful fashion and makeup at the moment that we have been dreaming in colour. From pops of strong pastels on the lips to bold, statement eyes, Maybelline have been brightening up our world right up with their behind-the-scenes reports from NYFW.

And today we are getting insider tips and tricks from the latest and hottest show, Brock. If you are fan of elegant beauty, then read on because we'll be showing you exactly how to get this look.

So take your seats on the FROW because we're taking a look at the Brock runway!

  • Brock

Brock is the luxury womenswear label from designers Laura Vassar and Kristopher Brock. This brand started in 2013 after the duo met and began to collaborate while attending Parsons The New School of Desgin.

Before launching the line, Brock had made a name for himself as one of New York's most in-demand tailors and pattern makers. Meanwhile, Vassar was working under Olivier Theyskens at Theory doing editorial and celebrity styling.

And it was from these backgrounds that the Brock label was born. The idea behind the brand is to create luxury pieces that one can live in through reinterpreting wearable clothing.

And this will be the first season that Maybelline New York sponsors Brock.

We loved the neutrals, metallics and sophisticated looks from the Brock show. And this was reflected in the makeup - glossy lips, groomed nails and the lightest touches of concealer.

  • Color Sensational Lipstick Elixir (€9.69)

The color of a lipstick, the cushiony care of a balm, and the glass shine of a gloss - we're loving the Color Sensational Lipstick Elixir. The brush is designed to follow the natural cupid's bow of your mouth and just glides onto the lip.

You can make a statement with Mandarin Rapture or opt for the perfect pout with Signature Scarlet. But we love Petal Plush for this ever-so-ladylike look.

  • Dream Lumi Touch (€10.79)

Let there be light! This gel-based formula diffuses light to illuminate as it conceals without feeling heavy or looking cakey.

It brightens the skin as it evens out appearance of skin tone and texture, helping you to look wide awake, bright eyed and bushy tailed!

  • Color Show Nail (€4.55)

And don't forget to show some love to your talons. We love nudes and soft pastels for an elegant Spring look. We've chosen three of our favourites from the Color Show range, all guaranteed to be talon-tastic!

l to r: Clear Shine, Sugar Crystals, Winter Baby

The key to this look is attention to detail - perfectly groomed nails, clear eyes and softly glossed lips; yes, you'll be invited to the best after-parties in town.

And don’t forget that we’ll be taking a look at more of the best looks from NYFW with Maybelline throughout the week. And we’d love to know which looks are your favourite!
