Having experienced the brand once before at Bendel’s in New York City, he was immediately struck by the extravagantly styled, mohawked, tattooed individuals behind the counter. “People like me,” he says. An echo of his future, Barber patiently waited until MAC made its way to London in 1993, landing a job at its Harvey Nichols outpost, a beacon of vibrant individualism that he says was “like working in Studio 54.” Now Director of Makeup Artistry for the UK and Europe, Barber is one of the brand’s most colourful, fashionable and ruthlessly blunt ambassadors.
A showman, he loves the energy and creativity of backstage. But no matter where he is – traveling the world teaching Master Classes, leading demonstrations at events or keying fashion weeks across the globe – it is the brand’s diversity that remains a continued inspiration. “MAC taught me how to make anyone, in their own way, look beautiful.” BOWIE-INSPIRED “My original fascination with makeup came from David Bowie in the 1970s. The idea of blurring the boundaries of gender and creating a new kind of beauty has always remained a fascination to me.” ICON STATUS “My most memorable shoot has to be with Grace Jones for the cover of V magazine, shot by Jean-Paul Goude. Being in a studio with those two legends was like an out of body experience. The album covers that they created together were on my bedroom wall when I was growing up, so all I kept thinking was, ‘Mereally?’” KISS MY LIPS “I’m always giving away lipsticks. MAC lipsticks are so transforming and impactful that once you’ve applied them, you can’t live without them!
My favourite shades to gift are reds like Ruby Woo, Russian Red or Diva, which I consider ‘coming of age’ reds.”.
Nars Timanfaya Satin Lip Pencil 3. Burberry AW14: 1.
' The Bloomsbury girls' The inspiration behind the Burberry AW14 collection was the boho Bloomsbury set of 1920s London. Makeup artist Wendy Rowe and hair stylist Neil Moodie perfectly mirrored this with the hair and make-up. Wendy used subtle sweeps of colour for the Burberry AW14 campaign.
Wendy swept mulberry eyeshadow on the top and bottom eyelids for a wash of colour and blended the edges with her fingertips. The finished look is almost like the models have done it themselves, with no proper shapes and it gives the feeling of boho innocence. Wendy pressed mauve lipstick into the lips.
Neil Moodie hair stylist explained how he created an effortless, natural texture by using detangling spray and a bit of oil to give the hair a natural sheen. Then used a hair drier diffuser with a slightly off-centre parting to create an undone, almost windswept effect letting the natural texture come through. Marc Jacobs SS14: Marc Jacobs is definitely a designer who can always surprise me. You just never know what to expect from him.
This was the case with his SS14 collection. The collection was definitely not something you would expect for a spring/summer collection.
There were mainly dark colours, dresses were dark, gothic and dramatic, with oversized jackets. I really liked the darkness of the set and the music, and I liked some pieces of the collection, but overall I wouldn't say it was my cup of tea. Some pieces were nearly a bit too goth for my taste. But I really liked the idea of it being dark for a spring/summer collection as it is very unexpected. I found the hairstyle very weird but in a sort of good way. The uniformed, short blonde wigs complimented the music, the set and the collection very well.
It was very odd. I felt like I'm watching a Tim Burton movie:) 1. Make-up: Apart from focusing on the dresses, fashion shows are a good chance to see what are the upcoming beauty trends. A huge trend that came out this season was definitely the blue eye. Francois Nars created two different looks at the show, using teal and royal blue. ' This is a summer look that's all about the eye'- explained Francois.
'Most of the girls have a teal blue line, but some have royal blue, extending past both the inner and outer corner. The skin is very transparent for a flushed look. Marc wanted the girls to look beautiful and edgy- interesting, but not too pretty.' Nars used a mixture of NARS Blue Dahlia and Kalist茅 eye pencils.
Nars kept the skin fresh and glowing, using Nars Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturiser. He did not apply any blush or lipstick, but when it came to mascara 'we're using as much as possible. It's a little bit decadent, a little too thick'- he explained. Holly first prepped the skin. She cleansed, toned and moisturised the model's skin. As this is a catwalk/fashion look she did not want to see too much product on the skin. Instead of using a ton of foundation she wanted us to create a dewy complexion with very minimal products, and concentrate on pinpoint concealing any blemishes.
She started the look by applying MAC's Natural Radiance Base primer. She than mixed two shades of MAC Face&Body, C5 and C3 to get the perfect shade for the model's skin tone. She also mixed equal amount of strobe cream. She only applied this mixture to the areas of the face that needed coverage, especially the centre part of the face.
She really buffed the foundation into the skin, using a fluffy blending brush. Holly said that normally make-up artists spend the most time on prepping the skon backstage, as a fresh, clean, flawless complexion is essential for runway looks. Holly then used a MAC concealer palette where a bit more coverage was needed.
She than powdered the skin underneath the eyes and in the T-zone(in the centre part of the face), using a translucent powder. Instead of using shimmery highlighting products, Holly dabbed on a little bit of essential skin oil to highlight the high points of the face.
Jean-pierre Braganza Makeup By Terry Barber For Mac
She than moved onto the eyebrows. The only product she used here was a clear brow gel by MAC. She brushed the hair upwards before applying the brow gel. Before continuing with the eyes, Holly talked about the importance of applying the catwalk look as uniform as possible, but adapting the makeup to the model's eyeshape. For the eyes, Holly used Black Track by MAC. She slightly pulled up the upper eyelid the create a smooth surface in the crease.
She applied a sharp line just above the crease. Ske kept on asking her model to open her eyes, making sure that the line was in the right place. She than moved on to the actual eyeliner.
One thing that we had to keep in mind was that the edge of the eyeliner is quite rounded in the outer corner of the eyes, and there is no flick. Once she was happy with the eyeliner, she drew on the line underneath the eyes and applied a pink lipstick under that line.
As my model had quite a few blemishes, it was a good opportunity for me to practice concealing. After I made sure that her clothing is covered with a disposable towel, I washed and sanitised my hands. I first used a cleansing milk to remove any excess oils from the skin. I double-cleansed her skin to remove dead skin cells as well, because she had patches of dry skin around her blemishes. A cleansing milk is a great choice for dry skin in my opinion, because it's cry gentle and you already moisturising the skin while cleansing it. I than wiped her face with a calming toner, using cotton pads.
After this step I applied a serum to the dry areas of her face. I really massaged it into the skin. I think this step really helped to soften the skin. I than massaged plenty of moisturiser into her skin. After I was happy with the texture of her skin, I decided to conceal the redness in her skin.
I used a mixture of a yellow and green concealer to counteract the redness. She also had some blueness underneath the eyes. For this I used a peach toned concealer which is great to conceal any blueness. I than mixed equal amount of strobe cream and MAC Face&Body foundation in shades C3 and C4 to get the right shade and consistency. I first applied it with a flat foundation brush, than buffed it into the skin with a fluffy brush.
I think this foundation has just enough coverage to even out the skin tone but not mask the skin. The skin is still showing through (and also my model's freckles) but it has a nice even colour and surface which I was quite happy about.
I think I've done a quite good job on the skin. When I applied the top line into her crease I asked her to open her eyes to check the symmetry. When she closed her eyes again I realised that the liner transferred a little bit onto her eyelid. I dipped a cotton bud into makeup remover to clean it up but it just did not move. I was really shocked to be honest. I tried two different make-up removers and none of them worked.
I than dipped the cotton bud into the cleansing milk that I used for her skin and that worked quite well but it messed up the look a little bit. I went back with a little bit of the leftover foundation to fix it and applied plenty of powder to her lids again but because she has really oily eyelids, the liner kept on smudging and moving around. So next time I will make sure to apply an eyeshadow primer on the lids.
After I was happy with the symmetry of the two top lines, I lined her top- and bottom lash lines, making sure that the edges are rounded. I than applied the bottom line underneath her eyes. Looking back at the pictures I think the bottom lines are a bit too thick and heavy. I than blended a pink lipstick underneath the bottom line. I finished the look with brushing clear eyebrow gel by MAC through her eyebrows and applying a coat of mascara to the top lashes only.
I also applied a clear lip balm to her lips. Overview of the lesson: I am quite happy with the concealing and the whole complexion, but looking back at the photos of my work, there are a few things I would definitely change about the eyes. For this particular look, I wouldn't use the Ing lot eyeliner again, because it is so hard to remove it, therefore nearly impossible to correct any mistakes. I would also change the shape and the direction of the eyeliner underneath the eyes. I think the line is a bit too thick, and is a bit too intense. But in general I enjoyed creating this look, and achieving a clear looking skin was definitely a challenge, as my model had a bad skin day, but I think I've done a quite good job on the skin. I would also fill in the eyebrows a little, especially the outer parts of them.

Milan Fashion Week- SS15 Looking at the photos of Alberta Ferretti's SS15 collection feels like opening the gates to the Garden of Eden and experiencing what lies behind them.
Alberta Ferretti captured elements of romance and nature. It was all about fringing and flowers. The main elements of this collection were: bohemian, ethereal nude and blush chiffon pieces with long, floor-sweeping hemlines. The models floated down the runway so effortlessly.
There were also a hint of Native American vibe, thanks to fringe detailing and garments made from soft tan leather, accompanied by hippie style sandals. 'At this moment in time, easy hair feels the most modern, and that's the overall feeling we get with this hairstyle,' says Guido. 'The Alberta Ferretti girl is kind of a hippie, but still very feminine and soft, so I left the hair a bit natural, with some nice chunky texture and loose curls. I sprayed Fashion Waves 07 throughout the hair, and then used two different sized curling irons to add more movement.
Then I applied more Fashion Waves 07 to pull out the curls a bit, creating that nice matte texture.' Make-Up: Beautiful, natural, glowing skin- no heavy foundation or powder- was definitely one of the key elements of the make-up look for this show. The other was the warm peach toned eyeshadow and blusher. Eyes were contoured with a soft peach shadow and a fine line of black eyeliner was applied to the upper lash line, but only to the roots of the lashes to intensify the eyes. Only a light coat of mascara was applied to the lashes to keep it nice and simple. Nothing too crazy. The make-up artists kept the lips very natural by gently pushing peach toned lip balm over the lips for a soft finish.
Eyebrows were also kept very natural, soft and feminine.
