Matthew Brush and his designer wife, Nicki, approached me and asked if I would be interested in working with them on a shoot for some of the designs Nicki had created for Adidas. Matthew is great to work with and Nicki is as sweet as she is lovely so I was excited to be a part of this project.
They wanted natural makeup for the guys and some brighter colors for the girls. Men's grooming is pretty basic and straight forward although I think one of the models, Chris, got a little more than he bargained for. Not only did the hairdresser give him a hair cut on the spot but I took one look at his eyebrows (YIKES!) and pulled out the big guns on the tweezers and set to work. Poor guy, I don't think he knew he was getting a makeover that day! For the girls, I kept the skin a bit more natural with light foundation, a little highlight, and lots of bronzer. I played with some bold colors and graphic shapes on their eyes. I did one makeup change on Kate, transitioning her eyes into a smokey look. I'm pleased with how blended it turned out as I was given just a few minutes to change it and it was literally done in the dark!
