The ’60s are back, and at Pink Tartan they are electric. Citing a 1969 edition of Harper’s Bazaar as her inspiration, Kimberley Newport-Mimran also handed it to official makeup artist for L’Oréal Paris, Eddie Malter, for beauty direction. He created a perfectly blended, modern, Twiggy-esque look applying an array of High Intensity Pigments in shades of green varying from chartreuse to soft forest, then blended black along the crease for a ’60s effect. Individual lashes on the lower lash line and a full strip on top kept the look “on trend for spring.”

Keeping in line with the decade, Official hair artist and colourist for L’Oréal Paris, Eric Del Monaco, kept things sleek and shiny with hair that was blown out and straight-ironed using L’Oreal Studio Mineral Fix Modeling Gel-Crème. A final touch of L’Oréal Paris Elnett Hairspray, and the result was hair that moved as beautifully as the wide-legged trousers and billowy skirts that breezed down the runway.
