M.A.C. Cosmetics invited us backstage at designer Chado Ralph Rucci’s fall 2013 show. They wanted us to chat with lead makeup artist Tom Pecheux about how he achieved the look for the models for the collection. Pecheux wanted to create looks on the models that were sleek and modern with lots of energy. On the skin the makeup artist used mineralized moisture SPF 15 foundation, mineralized concealer, and transparent finishing powder. On the eyes they used black track fluidline and carbon eye shadow plus No. 7 lashes with haught & naughty mascara. On the lips was mauvey nude. For extra glam they added silver dusk highlight and taupe powder blush. The hair was very architectural with a sleek cone shape. Nails were painted with Essie’s Mademoiselle polish.
