Beauty | Backstage Beauty at Dolce & Gabbana + Giveaway

If you’re a beauty lover and lucky enough to attend a fashion week (New York, London, Milan or Paris) you’ll quickly learn that the backstage is your front stage! That was my experience this year by the end of the shows in New York. Although I wasn’t able to attend the shows in Milan, I felt that I had to make sure you all knew that the legendary makeup artist, Pat McGrath (pictured below), was the Creative Director for makeup for Dolce & Gabbana’s Spring 2010 collection.

According to Women’s Wear Daily, the theme for makeup and hair was “a passionate Latin woman” using words such as “Sicilian, sartorial and sensuality” for inspiration. The final makeup look resulted in a focus on the lips complemented with a soft eye.

Dolce & Gabbana actually collaborated with Pat McGrath earlier this year to create the makeup collection used backstage, with the complete range consisting of products for the face, eyes, lips and nails.

The complete Dolce & Gabbana collection is available for viewing here. And before I go, we have a giveaway!
