Backstage Beauty: Burberry
We went backstage at the hottest show of London Fashion Week A/W 2012 to see all the hair & beauty action before the models hit the catwalks.
Key Artist: Wendy Rowe, Burberry Beauty Artistic Consultant
The look: “Rich defined eyes paired with natural pink lips. Effortlessly flawless skin with gently contoured cheeks.”
We went backstage with Wendy, who talked us through the look...
Wendy told us that this season’s Burberry woman is “a town and country girl, who doesn’t mind getting her hands dirty”.
“She has a dark eye, created with sumptuous, rich, velvety colour.”
The skin look is sheer and smooth.
Products used (all by Burberry): Sheer Concealer; Sheer Compact Foundation; Fresh glow; Light glow in earthy blush no. 07; Light glow in Misty Blush No. 08
Wendy showed us how to apply the statement eye make-up: by sweeping the Gold Trench shadow all over the eye, and adding shade and shape by using Taupe along the socket line.
“Our girl’s been into town, she’s out and about” – Wendy Rowe.
Products used (all by Burberry): Effortless Mascara Midnight Black no. 01; Eye Definer Midnight Black no. 01; Sheer Eye Shadow Gold Trench no. 04; Sheer Eye Shadow Taupe Brown no. 07; Sheer Eye Shadow Almond no. 06
The lips were given a nude-pink glow.

The soft wavy locks were created by Neil Moodie @ D+V using Bumble & Bumble.
The inspiration: the city blow-out goes to the countryside
Pictures of Cara Delevingne were attached to every mirror as a style guide for the look. Cara closed the show.
