1. Instead of an innocent updo or a bunch of big curls (which would be way too sweet with all that rosiness) the models' hair was seriously bumped. See Petra's earlier post for the deets. That's the great thing about running into another Glamour beauty girl backstage—we can divide, conquer then head back out to the tent to guzzle free McDonald's coffee together.
2. The Sally Hansen manicurists didn’t play it safe with the nails. They used a couple of coats of jet-black polish then layered a sheer, glittery shade on top. I've been on a white nail polish kick for the last few months, but seeing this made me remember why black nails became a huge trend in the first place—it's so sexy-edgy. The two Sally Hansen shades, Midnight in New York and Hidden Treasure launch next year so be on the lookout.
Wearing the sexy-edgy black polish on is one thing, but taking it off...here are some secret tips to help with that process. Don’t get me wrong, I love me some pinks. But I think the tough-girl hair and nails made the whole look a little fresher. By the way, Charlotte Willer, global makeup artist for Maybelline, used Color Sensational Lipcolor in Make Me Pink on all 18 models, whether they were white, black or Asian, and it looked pretty on all of them. Call me a beauty nerd, but I get excited when I stumble upon a truly wearable makeup shade.
