The hair for Erin Wasson X RVCA silver cufflinks looked modern and organic (much like the designer's own), thanks to hairstylist Kevin Ryan, who crimped only the bottom layer. "Just a glimpse of a good thing is enough; too much and it can become cheap," says Ryan. Maybelline's official global makeup artist, Charlotte Wilier, invented an eccentric look by creating a soft, smoky eye, a beige lip and a single black "feathered" brow. "It's like wearing one big earring- it looks cool but not overwhelming," says Wilier. Using black gel liner, she drew small strokes of varying lengths upward from the inner brow to win the feathered effect. Beneath the centre of the lower lip, she swept a single stroke of the same liner, making lips look fuller (replicate this plumping trick with a nude or clear lip pencil, says the pro).

A high ponytail screams young and silver earrings a low ponytail says classic, so at Max Azria, stylist Bob Recine created a contemporary ponytail placed right in the middle. To smooth out locks, Recine blow-dried hair with a paddle brush and shine spray. "We want vibrancy and bounce, which we can't get with a straight iron because it flattens out the hair too much." Wilier mirrored the minimalist runway message by forgoing blush and eyeshadow, leaving the face clean yet polished. First, she prepared healthy-looking skin using mineral liquid foundation and powder.

Next, she filled in eyebrows with pencil, elongating them slightly at the sides to frame the eyes. The modern masterpiece? A bright stained lip in the season's haute shade: orange. silver key rings Wilier started with lip balm, then dabbed lipstick into the centre using her finger.
