A Breath of Fresh Air at Suzanne Rae

a breath of fresh air at suzanne rae

Suzanne Rae has done it again - created a collection that communicates sophistication and ease with a dash of serenity. Described by the designer herself as, “A line to be worn by cool and confident women around the world”, carefree and subtly enhanced makeup was the perfect accoutrement.

To get the carefree look from Rae’s SS12 runway show, here’s what you need:

  1. Mineral Veil from Bare Escentuals to naturally even out skin tone.
  2. EcoTools Bamboo Finishing Kabuki Brush for evenly applying the Mineral Veil.
  3. Crushed Mineral Eyeshadow from Young Blood in Tourmaline to apply to eyelids and highlight any eye color.
  4. The Bamboo 6-Piece Eye Brush Set from EcoTools for eye shadow application with precision.
  5. A sweep of mascara with Dr. Hauschka’s Lash Strengthening Mascara.
  6. Finish off the look with the moisturizing Plant A Kiss Lip Conditioner from EcoTools for plump lips with a touch of mint.

The pop of a pinkish orange eye pulled the show together connecting every piece, and adding a spirited and clean look to the models. The SS12 collection was like a breath of fresh and pure air. Flowing fabrics trailed behind the models as they walked, while form flattering swimsuits provided structure. A perfect balance of opposites that, in the end, created a wonderful state of stylish zen.

Come back later today to view video from the show as well as our interview with Suzanne Rae herself!
