This season’s must-have: The lipstick-balm hybrid.
Interview Scoops! Lisa Eldridge and Alex Box pring 2011 Collections & Best Beauty Buys
Editor’s Letter
S
pring is here and it’s time for the new issue of Makeup4all Magazine. As it is our first anniversary I’ve decided to make some changes and I really hope that you will like them. The hottest topic of this issue is diversity. Do you love pastels or brights, will you splash out or save, are you a rock diva or a slick chick? One thing is for sure, there are choices for everyone.
I would like to thank British Beauty Blogger for her help with editing the text. Alex from Illamasqua, Alex Box and Lisa Eldridge for their time and for answering my questions.
In this issue we have two brilliant Make-Up Artists who are amazing and creative, yet both have their own stunning, unique style. The edgy and innovative Alex Box creates mind blowing images and stretches the boundaries of make-up artistry, while Lisa Eldridge specialises in modern aspirational and sophisticated looks. Their work reflects their personality - Alex is a Creative Director for British alternative brand Illamasqua and Lisa is Creative Director for the British brand No7. In this issue you can find out more about Lisa’s latest project, Chanel Confidential. We have gathered the best Spring 2011 makeup collections for you to choose from, my personal wish list and, as usual, created an tempting shopping list. We share the hottest makeup trends from the SS 2011 runways. This season is all about nature intensified. Bold neons like tropical flowers, gentle pinks and pastels from emerging spring flowers and scents of just bloomed blossoms imitate the wild and the beautiful. If you want to know what makeup products will be the biggest trend this Spring and what to buy for your make-up bag to stay on trend, we got that covered, too! Make this Spring all about a new make-up awakening. Try a colour you have never used before, change the shape of your nails, experiment with tinted moisturiser if you’re used to foundation or swap powder shadows and blushes to sheer, crème formulas. Shake it up a little, and enjoy your Spring beauty! And, remember, whatever look you want to wear, you can do it! Confidence is the best beauty secret of all. Marina, the Founder and Editor of MakeUp4All

Make-Up Artists Interview
Lisa Eldridge
A year ago when I worked on the first issue of this Magazine I was absolutely thrilled to have a look created by Lisa Eldridge on the cover and an interview with her as she is one of my favourite Make Up Artists. This issue Lisa shares her news with us and also talks about her brand new project - Chanel Confidential. You are a source of inspiration to a lot of aspiring Make-Up Artists so what advice would you give to them? Maybe you can share the first steps of your own career? I have a series of films on how to be a make-up artist going on to my website. (Some of them are already live and some are coming soon, go to Lisa’s website http://www.lisaeldridge.com/ to check them out – Editor) Besides being a famous MUA, you are also a Creative Director of No7. Can you give us an inside tour on how you create the new collection? How long does it take? What do you like the best about this process? The process of creating a new No7 collection takes about one month, from start to finish. First of all, I have to come up with a concept and then everything starts to fall into place. My experience from 20 years in the business helps me with this and I combine this experience with cultural influences from art, film, architecture, interiors…everything I’m absorbing in my daily life. I often visit the top make up manufacturing factories in Europe, where huge teams are always developing new cosmetics technology, so I get sense of how this will be used in the coming year or two. Sourcing images to fit with my concept takes up the most time in the process. I then present my dream scenario to Boots, with my 4 SPRING/2011
references and influences, ideal colours, textures and packaging. Sometimes I get almost exactly what I envisioned, but other times my vision doesn’t match the budget or the commercial reality. In the build up to presenting the collection, I am always so excited and enthusiastic, but a week later I have already forgotten about it because I’m on to the next collection! You have a lot of products in your personal makeup bag and in your kit but maybe there are products that are on your wish list? How do you choose makeup and beauty products? The trips I make to the European Cosmetic factories are exciting for me as I get to see what is going to be on the counters, in my kit and the kits of other great MUAs. The products that stick out on these trips are the ones that I want to get my hands on as quickly as possible. Although it can take up to 2 years to see them on general sale on counter I usually take samples and start trying them out in my kit straight away. I am always on the lookout for new and innovative textures, especially those which can make my job easier and give me even better results.

Make-Up Artists Interview
Alex Box Q: What are your personal favourite products from Illamasqua? What products would you recommend to those who are new to the brand?
I am also happy to introduce Make-Up Artist and Creative Director of Illamasqua – Alex Box. Her unique looks are truly works of art and an inspiration to many.
Lipstick in Box is my favourite, for obvious reasons! I had a massive input in the formulation - as a life long wearer of red lipstick it’s a real thrill to have my own, it’s every make-up artists dream! I also love the intensity of the products - the blendability, richness, it’s really unbelievable and I get blown away rediscovering the collection. The Powder Eye Shadows especially have fabulous pay off, but it also translates throughout the rest of the collection - nails, glosses. I have recently rediscovered Intense Lipgloss in ‘Fierce’ a fabulous vibrant purple, perfect as an intense gloss for the lips or sheered out for a wash on the lids and the cheekbones.

the story, linking it to the products we want and the final narrative imagery. We create characters. They exist only for that collection, are created for the sole purpose of that collection. They don’t exist outside of it and that is very different in this industry where images could belong to a variety of ‘collections’. Our characters could never exist in any collection other than the one they are designed for. That’s a rather beautiful thing. Q:London is such an amazing city. Do you have a favourite place? The Wolesey for pure unabashed old school decadence. And wonderful omelettes! So high SoHo is the best shop in London for glamorous tat and comedy visuals. Q: Who is your favourite artist? [straight away] Francis Bacon. No doubt. So contemporary, alluring and as fresh as he ever was. The complex work means something different to me at every stage of my life and career. Genius. [Alex waxes lyrical on Bacon for about ten minutes at this point!] Q: Can you tell us the products that are always in your make-up kit? EVERYTHING! Everything but the kitchen sink ... and actually a bit of the kitchen sink! I am known for my artistic creativity so I have to have a massive kit; pebbles, glitter, papier mache, arts and crafts galore as well as make-up for skin

A corrupted cuteness. An incandescent innocence. I was inspired by looking at Japanese dolls with their incredibly exquisite play on proportion; large eyes, button mouths, long limbs. I was also inspird by a variety of illustrators that create ethereal, romantic drawings. The idea behind the collection was a hybrid race, a mutated race with exaggerated proportions, exaggerated features. “ On The Styling/ Hair/ Make-up “I wanted to create a real sense of of illustration and painting – blends and dabs, daubs, washes of pigment and more intense, deliberate strokes and marks and to translate this to the styling. I had a very clear idea of over-exaggeration with the hair – almost doll like caricatures. Like when
On the Cream Pigments “I don’t think we have ever created a product that is as hard working as Cream Pigments. They can correct or enhance, disguise or reveal. I am obsessed with their versatility; blush, lips, eyes, contouring … they are absolutely my favourite product right now. Super-blendable, they can be pressed and blended in to skin or slicked on for graphic shapes. Education is key with the pigments. Once you have learnt how to master them you can control their impact. “ On the Precision Ink in ‘Glister’ “It’s the anti-liner. It will revolutionise and update your make-up look. The unusual, unique shade is great as an eye liner to cut through deep shades, or to use as part of a nude look, or as a lipliner to exaggerate. “

And here is the collection and the beautiful makeup created by Alex Box. Unpredictable, uncharted and unnatural, Illamasqua unleashes Toxic Nature for Spring/Summer 2011, a colour collection born from a visionary concept of nature fighting back against the genetically modified society that plunders it. Illamasqua has created the Toxic Nature collection through a palette of lurid shades, corrupted hues and glistening muted tones that offer intoxicating versions of their original selves.

For her new spring collection ÂŤ TRES VICHY Âť, Dany SANZ was inspired by the fashion of the 60s and its iconic print, Ginham. At that time a wind of freedom was blowing and daring on the wardrobes of women. A feminine look, timeless and Parisian. 30 SPRING/2011

Blend towards the temples to add depth and enhance the complexion. This will be your base for the look. Eyes Apply Diamond Pink With Purple Highlights to the inner corner of the eye. On the outer corner, apply Star Powder Diamond Green With Golden Highlights. Blend the two together with your fingers or an eye brush. Add a touch of Star Powder Diamond White to the middle of the lid to light up the eye. Finish by applying Color Liner n째1. Start from the inner corner and move outwards for a doe-eyed effect. The Tres Vichy Eyelashes are the star of this look, and Smoky Lash Mascara is the key. Complete the doe-eye effect by applying the Tres Vichy eyelashes just above your eyelashes. Finally, apply a coat of Black Smoky Lash mascara to add body to the lashes, sweeping from the root of the eyelashes to the tip. Lips The secret to finishing this look is to add a soft, and pink lipstick. For a Brigitte Bardot pout, the lips should be perfectly hydrated with the Lip Balm. Use Aqua Lip #18 on the contours of the lips and smooth out towards the inside of the lips. Apply Rouge Artist Intense #32 to the middle of the lips blend the shades together for luscious lips. For a perfect finish, dab color on with your fingertips!

Dark and Daring Lips
48 SPRING/2011
Although dark berry and plum lips are not for everyone, they can be adapted to your style and skin tone by choosing shades a little lighter than the very deep hues seen at Yves Saint Laurent, Armani, Lui Vuitton and Givenchy SS 2011 Runway shows. If you opt for a nocturnal shade, make sure that you keep the rest of your face neutral to make it wearable and chic, not gothic and over dramatic, unless this is what you are aiming for!

Everyday Inspiration
50 SPRING/2011
Finding an everyday look that is right for you takes trial and error. Catwalk extremes aren’t achievable for daily use, but ABC showed wearable and manageable shades using chocolate browns, terracotta and bronze for eyes and face. Smudge dark brown or black eye liner and add bronze or black mascara for a sexy look; add a warm peachy blush and neutral glossy lip and you are ready to conquer the World!

Eye Liner Twisted 54 SPRING/2011
Just like the red lips, eye liner is a classic! If you think cat eye is too much for you – opt for a fine line as seen at Hermes. Want a cat eye with a difference? Try the square one Peter Philips created for Chanel. And remember, eye liner doesn’t just come in black. If you are feeling creative try the eye liner along the lower eye lashes using black or white - any colour you feel like actually. Derek Lam showed stunning looks with red liner, while Loewe opted for spicy rainbow shades of purple, turquoise, green and yellow.

Like You, But Better
58 SPRING/2011
A no makeup look or natural chic is never dated. The key is a flawless tone and glowing complexion. Flushed cheeks, highlighters, contouring, groomed eye brows and moisturized lips are also natural look essentials. Curl your lashes upward to eliminate the need for mascara, or if you can’t do without try a transparent one so lashes look dewy and delicate.
