Virginity and innocence vs. experience and dominant attitude. Insinuation vs. (almost) explicit sex. Eroticism at its best. There are lots of ways in which we could describe the edition of MADE Now we are presenting today. A risqué April issue in which we show every facet of a powerful woman. Powerful women such as Miuccia Prada, the absolute dominatrix of fashion nowadays, turning everything we would exile to the abandoned corner of our wardrobes in must-have items. Polish model Anja Rubik, promoter of the #freethenipple movement and of the most-wanted faces in fashion, whose style means a perfect mix between elegance and sensuality without limits, something that is translated into her annual magazine 25, always riddled with erotic content. And also the young Emma Watson, who has brought feminism to a new stadium in which the fight for equality is healthier and stronger than ever. And if we are talking about powerful women, there is one name that is obviously unforgettable: Beyoncé. Analyzing the lyrics of one of the most acclaimed song from Queen B’s last album, “Flawless”, I discover some lines which immediately call my attention, recited by Chimamanda Ngozi: “we teach girls that they cannot be sexual beings in the way that boys are”. Why not? This is, precisely, to what this fifteenth edition is dedicated; we want to show the sexual power of women in its entire splendor. A sexual power with is present in fashion this season: the last Givenchy by Riccardo Tisci show in New York — an absolute success, by the way—, the slip dresses presented in Saint Laurent by Hedi Slimane or Calvin Klein, the sensual lace in Céline, the suggestive slits by Italian designer Francesco Scognamiglio, the implacable sexy style from Anthony Vaccarello… Infinite references which remind us that sex, concerning style, is everything but a taboo. But of course, this is no news. It is not necessary to go too back in time to find this paradise of explicit sex, almost rude, of the always controversial Terry Richardson, but whose photos always have that something about them which does not allow us to look away, due to their visual potential. O even the great Helmut Newton, who marked the 20th century with his striking vision about fashion: direct and with a touch of fetishism. Yesteryear designers? It is impossible not to think about Yves Saint Laurent and his tuxedo, which in 1962 meant the final liberation (regarding fashion) of women, as well as the 80s and 90s that Gianni Versace and Thierry Mugler filled with color, slim micro-dresses and metallic, anatomical armors. Putting all this elements together, MADE Now presents an April issue in which Florángel Sánchez, head at our redaction department and with the pages about Sex under her supervision, she talks about her evolution in the magazine and what it means to be sexy nowadays; make-ups which are a 100% irresistible; juicy, paradisiacal fruits through which we show subliminal messages not suitable for all audiences; and lingerie as the absolute protagonist of editorials in which you will see loads of skin (oh yes, you will!). Here you have “ÉROTIQUE”: definitely, a high voltage edition through which you can explore the concepts of virginity, sex, eroticism and seduction, always with that MADE Now touch that we love.

Always three Orlando read again and again the poetry that Julia wrote at the beginning of their relationship and that he kept on his desk. A tear runs down his cheek, he still can not believe what happened.
“Maybe Julia has been the only woman who really loved me. He nevera asked me anything, just with my company she was happy. Her eyes lit up when she saw me, and she outlined a shy smile.
He Needs to take in his mind the image of Julia lying on the ground, unconscious, after falling down the stairs in that cafe. He still echoes in his ears the sound of the ambulance coming to pick her up and to taje Her to the hospital in Ceuta.
She shivered in my arms, She looked for my kisses, my caresses. Her eyes expressed love, desire ... She was able to make me touch the sky with my hands when we Made LOVE. How stupid Have I been, absurd vanity! “
Again and again he recalls the conversation that morning and his words when Julia told him she was pregnant, “Sorry, I already have a child and I do not want any orbes, you know what you have to do.” Harsh words “ Orlando thinks, still thinking...
Orlando can not help feeling guilty, he knows that Julia fell down the staircase when she ran away from him when she san him with another woman. He spent all night in the hospital, at her side, when he saw that she regained consciousness, he did not have the courage to talk to her.

When the doctor leaves the room, Susan exclaims What a Hulk !, what eyes!
“Why? Why? “They are the only words repeated over and over again.

Her friends try to calm her. - Julia, I know it’s very tough what you’re going through, you have to calm down, you need time, it will soothe your pain - says Marta.

The doctor enters the room. - Good morning, how are you Julia? Julia can not answer, her voice faints . He is placing his hand on Her shoulder trying to calm her. - I Am sorry for what happened, you will have to stay 48 hours for observation, if all goes well, on Monday you can go home.

Among sheets F
or the decoration section of this issue, I will take you to the room, and there is nothing more erotic than a well-dressed bed. Yes, as if a person spoke, the bed should be spotless, with textures and scents suitable to attract to whom we want to invite. The room is one of the most important areas of the house, it is our rest and privacy area. It is an intimate space, which should be decorated so we feel identified with everything that it is within it. But for an intimate encounter, a wakeful night in it, or for making an indecent proposal, we must also be prepared with the best sets of sheets in the market. One must have a set of comfortable sheets, in which it is nice slide below them, and if they are new much better. A very sexy and modern firm is Liou’s bedding which you can buy online.

As for types of fabrics and textures we can use: Gauze, though not widely used, also gives much play since it is semi-transparent, exotic and delicate. Satin, provides refinement and class. It is an elegant and very attractive fabric. This is often combined with cotton which is the king of tissues and which together with the polyester is the most used one in the daily sets of sheets worldwide. Linen, it has an excellent quality and provides an effect of extra shine both on the bed and the bedroom. Natural silk, par excellence, is one of the most chosen fabrics for sheets. This is due to its softness and strength. Also, among the highest quality materials there is velvet, and although it is true that it is not very common to see sheets made of this material, some stores sell them as the velvet is characterized for being a delicate fabric resistant to water and wrinkles . Whatever the texture you choose, try to pick the sexiest one, in order to attract, to invite. One that smells good and if it is the perfum that you usually wear, much better. Especially if it is for someone important, the room must be comfortable and fully welcoming. Make of your room a space which sometimes invites to much more than resting. • F.S.

This issue by MADE Now was a gift for me the very first moment I was told about its topic. And in order to make the best of this “EROTIC”, is there any better occasion in which we can lose control? Bondage is one of the most erotic activities that exist regarding sex, and not only for being practiced, but for being appreciated, which has existed for centuries. It began as torture (both in Asia and Europe) which used chains, gags, shackles… With the passing of time, it was turned into a kind of eroticism in Japan, and it started to be seen as an art that was only practiced by the highest spheres in society, the “Shibari”. Then it spread all over the

world both as a sexual practice and as in productions in the USA such as Harmony Concepts or Californy Star. Nowadays, this more than a sexual act per se; it is considered as a means of exploration of sexuality at an extreme level, as the one who is dominated will be at the total disposal of the dominatrix, who will tie the submissive the way she wants, and will do whatever she wants to the other person. This practice requires absolute care as it also has its risks, especially when the neck is tied, although it is said that this area produces more pleasure due to the fact that more adrenaline is secreted because of the sensation of danger. In my opinion this is something which is highly dangerous, so it needs to be done with responsibility and total trust on the other person. Lots of items are used in bondage in order to ensure the immobilization: from sophisticated silks, special ropes, ribbons of delicate velvet or feathered cuffs to normal ropes, neckties, plasters… Hurting the other is not the purpose of bondage, as it is in other practices; its objective is feeling the total disposal of another person to be ours, and vice versa. It may sound mad, but bondage is highly erotic. Sex has no rules, neither do eroticism: it’s just enjoying thoroughly our sexuality. • F.S.

The erotic is felt, guessed, imagined. It goes beyond the obvious, it plays with us and it is what it drives us crazy. The promise. To promise the skin and the sky. Like heaven, the erotic is subjective and abstract. A desire and an aspiration which loses some of their magic once achieved. The button which is unfastened. To see the forbidden. Intimacy is that place where we hide from the trial, the conventions and morality. The dressing table, a term no longer used, has been the scene of unspeakable dreams of the collective imagination in the past centuries. A place reserved only for women, to share confidences and prepare for the show of seduction. A place where dresses move through the slips to reach the carpet, hair rests on the shoulders and perfume teems. Freedom begins Is there anything sexier than freedom?. Pajamas rock, they are sexy. In its efforts to monopolize all that exists under the sun, the gateway has endeavored to unravel the mystery, in which we kept walking under the pillow. Linen looms. Some of the most demanding people, such as the great Grace Coddington, Marc Jacobs, Sofia Coppola and Rihanna have exhibited their “pajamas” - deluxe yes- at parties and red carpets ... Attitude, Challenge Is there anything sexier than rebellion? Lace. It is an essential element in the erotic imagination. His are the most delicate parts of our anatomy and gives femininity and charm that petting. I can think of little more feminine than lace, as veil or support, we take all of “holy whores” (I do not like this expression, but I take the linguistic license).

Head of the redaction department at the magazine, and with the most sassy article in the publication under her supervision, FLORÁNGEL SÁNCHEZ: an intimate conversation about her evolution in MADE Now, the concept of “sex” spoken in public nowadays, or what is to be sexy.

We meet Florángel at the magazine’s studio. Wearing, as most of the times, head to toe black —she defines her style as gothic-chic— we begin one of the most special sessions in the last months. During the same, a series of confessions about her way through the magazine, its present status and some details not appropriate for all audiences. Flor, you began your career at the magazine almost from the beginning. How do you see the evolution it has experienced? And moreover, how have your style developed with it? Yes! I began almost at the beginning of the project and I absolutely see this fact as a privilege. MADE Now has evolved in various ways; the team is always investigating and gets to that new step “à la MADE Now” in each new issue. In my opinion, we have learnt to begin from zero, to create new and fresh things for every single edition, and doing so in such a natural way is an important evolution. I still learn something new every day with the magazine: I try to look for new things and to give my opinion in every single article I sign, look for ways of editing the texts without losing the essence of the person who is writing it for us, and I have a total confidence and freedom when doing my own ones. My evolution goes hand by hand with the magazine’s. Your publications always esteemed because, exhaustively, you allot parts of your section to every kind of sexuality, both straight and homosexual relations, etc. I like to make it clear that there are lots of ways of living our sexuality, there is no need to limit everything to the “traditional”. As a reader, it is frustrating when I read something only focused to men, when there are women who are interested or that practice such issues, and vice versa. The worst thing is that sometimes, society limits itself to that thinking of “male-female”, and to the “this is for boysthis is for girls”, when it’s been a while since all that stuff is so out-of-step. We are much more than that, and there are lots of ways of living both sexuality and gender. Currently, at the point in which the magazine sees itself, with a whole issue dedicated to sex, eroticism, sensuality… Do you think that, precisely this term, that of “sex”, is still considered a taboo in the height of the 21st Century? Of course it is still a taboo, mainly if we talk about lesbians (laughs). The more we know about certain topics, the more this taboo grows; but it is a hypocritical taboo, and sorry for that word. It is a fact, most of us do not talk about sexuality, or sex… But I am sure that the one who speaks the least about such topics is the one who investigates the most about it, and mainly in hiding, as if it were something bad. I am not saying that we should talk with everyone about our sexuality, or sex in general, but societies would be more tolerant if we talked about that thing more naturally.
EROTIC / MADE NOW |

So we could say that organizing a section as that under your supervision demands certain kind of extradelicacy… Absolutely! One has to know how to express every single aspect in a subtle, clear and simple way, o at least that is what I try to do. It is a taboo topic, as we were talking before, so it is difficult to communicate something you cannot express in an explicit way. And then there is my dear Rubén [the director of the magazine] who makes me change the photographs in my article as they are a bit… Risqué (laughs). Therefore, an issue can be dedicated to sex without offending (too much) the readers’ sensibilities, can’t it? Sure, I think it is possible if paying attention to every single detail and in the subtler way we can. But if I were in charge of something like that… Half of my work would be censored for being too risqué! (Laughs). While we prepare the first photographs, Florángel looks at the hangers with the clother for the interview. “What have you brought?”, she asks; “would it be ok with my gothicchic style?”. I explain the styling, she thinks about it for a second; when she comes out the dressing room, she looks at me delighted. “It’s über sexy!”, she shouts with a big smile on her face. I ask myself if there is anything sexier in a woman than a sincere smile. I connect some thought in my head, and some references come to my mind. A sassy Gianni Versace in the 80’s; even more Thierry Mugler during the 90’s… What or who defines “sexy” nowadays? Whoa, that’s a difficult one. But for me, Yves Saint Laurent defines that term of “being sexy” in the best way possible. And nothing else (laughs). Getting into the issue itself, we can see that it is divided in two clearly differentiated parts: the purest virginity vs. the most erotic, sensual eroticism. Which of them is closer to your personality? Hmm… I think I am closer to the second one, but I must admit that I love playing with both of them. I think that sensuality can be pure even being explicit. I don’t like being too radical regarding such topics, but I prefer thing being erotic rather than virginal. If there is something clear in this interview is that for Florángel Sánchez, being conscious about the topic one wants to deal with in every single moment, no matter how delicate it is, requires a delicacy and a know-how that just a few can understand. And the thing is that sex, as she has said, is still a taboo in the 21st Century, but for MADE Now (and for Flor herself), it does not look like a problem at all. • D.A.

- Do you think there is a hat for every person? Yes, for everyone. As there are different people, there are different hats. - Knowing your customer is critical because you do both gentlemen and women hats. I make men and ladies hats and in both cases, I need to convey their tastes and interests, namely the outfit and their needs and the space where they will wear the hat. For some customers you can prioritize comfort, while others prefer to be glamorous at their discretion. They send me photos and pictures with their possible tastes and inspirations as regards the perfect hat for them. The time I dedicate to it is undefined, what it requires for each customer. They can come several times and try them. I always adjust myself to each person. - In addition to using an exquisite pattern because of your training, what do you add to your creations? Experiences. I make prototypes and from them I move the pieces, I iron them and I test them in different positions; I use mirrors to see angles and this helps me in the working process. It is better a mirror than the actual physical distance. Material handling and all these elements helps the ideas flow. - Not only do you make designs for your clients, but you also do collaborations with designers, let’s talk about this. When I work with designers, it is summarized in the equation: them, you and 50/50. When collaborating with Jesus del Pozo it was much of �you� because he took you to all the collection tests and you make things with him. We saw the models together, he expressed his idea and in the physical part, we got to an agreement. In other occasions, he asked me different pieces and materials that he took with him and he used to create: you worked with him. I have also worked in various collections with Juan Duyos. Sometimes, based on specific drawings or old photos; other times we have met in my workshop, he explains the concept and he tells me what he wants .. In a collection with Josep Font, he chose the pieces directly from my workshop in different colors. In his last exhibition he told me his idea, which I polished with subtle modifications to achieve a good result.

- We know of a time when hats were essential, almost as an imperative garment to mingle in the society. Why do you think that this is now obsolete? Hats used to have a utility function: to protect. In addition to its social component throughout history, as evident from the king’s crown to the pope’s miter. It was a very powerful social structure. The protocol required it in certain places: men uncover and women cover. Women, when they entered the working world, they started using hats less often. Society has evolved, now hair has its own meaning, which it is joy and freedom, and life has changed: before you had to walk, now we move on the subway or in the car, where it is uncomfortable to wear a hat. Today’s society must know the usefulness of the hat. We got carried away by advertising, by fashion, which means we do absurd things and lose sight of the usefulness of things, those of hats are quite obvious. - Now that fashion has enhance the importance of headdresses at weddings and ceremonies, do you think this business has a future? We must not forget that it is trendy and we look prettier with it, as when we wear earrings or enjoy a painting. It is a cultural wealth and its a shame to miss it. The dedication I give to my work has its value and I do think it has a future. It is very difficult to predict what may happen, it can turn around and become of fashion, or it can be forgotten. We must keep an open mind.
32 | MADE NOW / EROTIC
- To make a hat is not easy, we have shared your master classes and it has a laborious process of ideation, development and implementation. Do you think that people, customers are aware of the crafty dedication? Well, we talk a lot about fashion and sustainability, but then we refused to pay for crafty local works. Some people, though they do not order anything at the time, respect my work. I am very lucky because I still have orders and they consider that it is worth the money, so I appreciate that. Outside the workshop windows, it dawns , but inside time slows down among threads, shoe trees, textiles, fabrics, scissors ... Visiting Mabel Sanz Go’s workshop has been a pleasure. Discovering that she creates emotion and she conveys the magic and energy needed for us all in order to follow her trail and to be part of that new system of fashion that is already a fact. - What are your plans for the future? The Hat Bar is a shared project with Sombrera Fatima De Burnay. We have styles and ways of working which are very different, so each brings something different about this project. The Hat Bar is a meeting place that revolves around hats, its goal is to pass on the one hand our personality and love for our professional hats, shoe trees and old tools for sale. On the other hand, to make it known in a different way. We have publications in social networks and we carry out various cultural activities programmed around Hat Bar. Not long ago we made a collaboration with DIMAD in the Slaughterhouse and it was a funny collaboration in which a course on grocery hats took place. It is a way to interact and out of context, is to add a little sense of humor. To transmit peace and tranquility. It is, in fact, a personal search. My first thought as an adult was: “I need peace and perhaps where I have the most is in my hobby, which it’s my job. My best therapy, to make hats. “

Return Cristina Martins and Carlos Castro Brunetto are the organizing couple behind Ciudades de la Moda, del Arte y del Diseño, a series of conferences that were created in order to provide a cultural formation inside the fashion world and, at the same time, to understand it further than it commercial dynamics, as another form of contemporary art.
We meet them during the days previous to the event at the Olympo, where Cristina comments that “all the rebranding of this restaurant has been carried out by Mínima Compañía, and Pedro García, one of its founders, will be at the conferences talking about this topic”. Both share this project with such eagerness that it is contagious. And no surprise, Cristina has been linked to the world of fashion and communication for ten years, and Carlos is professor and Doctor of Art History at the University of La Laguna. CMAD was born four years ago and in each edition they “bring different cities to Tenerife with first-hand information thanks to the guest speakers who have been working and living in such places. We want to make the Canary Island closer to what is happening in the most important places in the world. This year we have chosen Seville, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria and New York”, explains Carlos.

Thanks to the path walked by the last editions, this year they increased the number of activities and the places where they would be carried out. The conferences on the different protagonist cities this year began on Monday, 11th April at TEA Tenerife Espacio de las Artes and finished April the 13th. There, we could listen to various presentations on fashion styling and how to create an image, the importance of branding for every single business, and we discovered the importance of window dressing, as it may be the key for a fashion store to success. And in order to go in depth with this issue, there was a two-day workshop in which the audience could learn, with the help of Carlos Martín, how to create catchy windows able to create a powerful image for our business. The 14th of April, a conference was held at the Real Casino de Santa Cruz under the name “Moda, ser y estar en la sociedad actual” (“Fashion, how to be noticed in present society”), by Pedro Mansilla, followed the next day by a Fashion Talk at the Hotel Mencey in which there was a debate on personal styling and fashion, something which was a “really interesting conversation between our guests and the audience”, claims Carlos.
Espacio Puente at TEA from the 8th of April, including a guided visit. Also at TEA, an expo with the works of the Premios Canarias de Diseño, awarded by DI-CA, was inaugurated. Finally, the Museum of Beaux Arts of Santa Cruz showed how, in arts, fashion can be a valid tool in order to strengthen the image of an individual or a group under the title “Soy lo que visto” (“I am what I wear”), open till the 4th of May. Besides, photographer Javier Velasco inaugurated “Calles del Mundo” (“Streets in the World”) at the space Indecor Zone (68, Imeldo Serís St.) in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, a recompilation of his best street style pictures from his trips all over the world. In total, ten days of talks, expos, visits and workshops in different locations around the city. When we asked them who they are able to organize such a huge event, the smile and comment that “the team is the most important thing. This year we have had new incorporations and everyone who supports CMAD does it with an immense enthusiasm and effort for it to result in a perfect event.”
Moreover, photographer Alfonso Bravo celebrated his 20 years in fashion photography with an expo on his career, something that meant the first specific expo on fashion by a native photographer and which took place at the

Sensuality,
a quality we all try to strengthen when there is a physical attraction to someone we are interested in. Different sensory experiences which allow us to enjoy moments of intimate eroticism can turn us into authentic objects of desire. We dare to show our sexiest facet with the following list of beauty tips.
Touch and smell Touch is an amazing sense which allows us to feel different unique textures that submerge us in a sea of sensations. We can get a delicious and smooth skin with a face mask as the one presented in the Sensual Rice facial care line by KENZO. A face mask of “marshmallow” formulated especially for normal and dry skins, with ingredients such as the karité butter, cocoa and rice water: a delicate and unique smell that will make of its application a process to enjoy, obtain a skin wanting to be caressed. On the body we can also enjoy some delicious experiences such as perfuming the skin delicately with a sensual scent. VALENTINO’s fragrance Valentina, used for its bath line, includes a vaporizer of dry oil that perfumes our skin as well as it makes it look absolutely smooth. The fragrance Flowerbomb, by VIKTOR AND ROLF, brings to us as marvelous body lotion with velvety effect that will give us a unique sensation. In order to get a skin with a uniform, smooth texture, it is recommendable to use body scrubs which add a fragrant touch, as the fruits by THE BODY SHOP, and then to apply our perfumed moisturizer. Getting a velvety skin on which we can apply our makeup is really easy: we can use an appropriate to our skin tone with a matte and gleaming finish, us the Eclat Matissime by GIVENCHY, or Le Teint Touch Eclat by YVES SAINT LAURENT. We will obtain a playful blush with blushers with creamy texture as the Blush Memoire de Forme by GIVENCHY, applying and blurring with the fingers.

Make up your lips with tones that stand out, for example, the classic red or a suggestive burgundy. Matte finishes tend to last longer than glossy ones, and are an icon of sensuality and sex appeal. We should look for the color that best complements our skin tone in order to wear red lips. If wearing these tones is too aggressive, there are other options: we can look for colored lip balms such as the BeneBalm by BENEFIT, or the sweet Juicy Shakers by LANCÔME, that will give us a moisturizing, glossy finish. In order to get smooth lips, we must ensure that they are always in perfect conditions, as applying a lipstick with a small brush allows us to obtain a better finish, if and when the lips are a perfect canvas on which we can work. We can use the sugar-based labial scrubs by LUSH, applying the in circles. We must always apply a good lip balm that protects and moisturizes them after the exfoliation, for instance, the Rêve de Miel with honey by NUXE. For our makeup to last longer than just some kisses, it is good to prepare them with a pre-base such as the Prep and Prime by MAC, which will affix the pigments. We can look at others with a menacing gaze, especially if we can make the best of them. According to the color of our eyes, we will look for the tones that best suits us, and strengthen them. We will use our eye shadow together with an cat-eye liner that will make our look more feline and seductive. We have to keep in mind that if the eyes are going to be the protagonists of our look, we will make the lips their perfect complement with a tone that will not make them stand out too much. In such cases, nude tones that highlight the natural color of our lips will be our best allies. For the makeup in our lashes, we will use a mascara which gives them volume and length in order to make the final touch and get a totally sensual impact. We could get it with different products such as the Maxi Lash Cils D’enfer by GUERLAIN, or the They’re Real! by BENEFIT, formulated with heavily dark pigments, giving a sublime legth. • R.E.

Virgin This is a skin that irradiates purity and brightness, with no imperfections or raucous colors. We want to obtain luminosity, so we have used the light base with juicy finish Face and Body by MAC. Corrections are a critic step if we want to obtain a porcelain-like skin as in this case, so we have opted for the Double Wear Concealer by ESTÉE LAUDER. Illuminating is also a special step in this look: we used DIOR’s DiorSkin Nude Glowing Gardens compact powders in the Glowing Pink tone. Makeup in general here is practically nonexistent, just a delicate blush in the cheeks and natural lips: we have opted for the Benefit lip and cheeks dye by BENEFIT COSMETICS and the colored BeneBalm lipbalm to make them look juicy and fresh.

Lust This is a look which incites to the sensual, the erotic… When the previous one inspired innocence, sweetness and virginity, here we will express a more suggestive vision of eroticism with sassier colors. We will play with velvety textures with the Éclat Matissime base by GIVENCHY that will bring light and uniformity to the skin, blurring with a beauty blender like sponge, or pressing softly with a flat brush. We are going to recall the mythic sex symbol of Marilyn Monroe and her iconic red lips. In order to get this effect, we use the Blake’s Pure Red lipstick by L’OREAL Collection Exclusive with a brush, and we will highlight the color by applying a more velvety effect with the New Fixation powders by MAC. We will make up the cheeks in the tone The Perfect Cheek from the MAC x Marilyn Monroe collection.

We keep on evoking sensuality with velvet-like textures and provocative colors.
This time, cat-eyes will be the protagonists, over an eye shadow with metallic effect in purple by MAC. For the eyeliner, we will be guided by adhesive tape we will stick from the end of the eye towards the end or the eyebrow. From here, we will apply the eye shadow till the middle of the eyelid, and once this is done, we will finish it with black eyeliner as the Blacktrack by MAC, drawing it from outside fluently. We will round off the look with intense cheeks in fuchsia and tasty lips with velvety and creamy finish. For doing so, we will use the Magie Pourpre matte gloss by LANCÔME. Black coat with wide lapel, H&M.
