Peter Philips, creative and image director for Christian Dior makeup, took a cue from artist Niki de Saint Phalle and Sixties style in creating the beauty look of the show. The focus here was on eyes with “big, fat lashes,” thanks to the built up layers of mascara. No fake lashes were used, “so it doesn’t look too retro,” explained Philips, adding that models’ skin was kept natural for a contemporary take, as well. He applied Lips Sugar Scrub and then Dior Addict Lip Glow on mouths. Other key products used included Diorshow Maximizer 3D, Diorshow Pump ‘N’ Volume and Dior Forever Undercover Foundation.
