Backstage Beauty: Moschino Cheap & Chic Fall 2012
London Fashion Week was full of exciting moments, but the Moschino Cheap & Chic show was one of our faves. The clothes were flirty and fun, featuring bright colors and wild prints—but it was the models' fresh-faced makeup and pink, glittery lips that made us really swoon. Makeup artist Val Garland says she was inspired by an "ice lollipop-pink collection made strong by an army of women." If a cheery, sparkly pink lip doesn't say girl power, then what does? Here, Garland gives us the scoop on how to re-create this amazing look using all MAC products.
