lacroix thinks pests are pretty

Leave it to Christian Lacroix to find elegance fit for the glitz and glamour of couture makeup buried in the dirt, as it were. “The inspiration for the Lacroix Couture show was powerful beetles and the praying mantis,” makeup artist Stéphane Marais divulges. Honing in on the pure beauty of the insects’ colors, Marais relied on metallic greens to offset what he describes as a “big, black theatrical eye.” “For the strong touch, I applied a turquoise green eyeliner liquid in the inner corner of the eyes…to get the power of fascinating predators.” Fascinating predators, eh? Now that’s fierce. To get the look, try MAC Liquidlast liner in Aqualine, $16.50, www.maccosmetics.com.
