Beauty Pick Me Up - Backstage at Altuzarra

At this past Fashion Week, our favorite Contributing Editor, Geri Hirsch of Because I'm Addicted, had the good luck to go backstage at Altuzarra and snap some first-hand beauty pics! We love the trends we saw and can't wait to try them out!
Here's our three favorite style! Then click on the slideshow to see our fave products that will help you get the look!
Wine Red Lips - Not quite as bright and show-y as cherry red, but still impactful and full of sex appeal! Try a creamy burgundy or a sweep of matte merlot. Or if the opaque wine color is too deep for you, look for a lip stain that allows you to build just the right coverage that you desire!
Slicked Back Bun - Side-part, mid-part ... what look is most flattering for your face shape? A look that's flattering for all? No part! Buns, whether high or low, are the new hair trend, and nothing makes it look more elegant or put together than a slicked back look!
Smudged Cat-Eye Liner - While we won't being trying out as emphasized a tail on our liner as we saw at Altuzarra backstage, the cat-eye look is a classic style that is sensual and dramatic without being over the top! It helps elongate the eye and the new take on the cat-eye liner is to give it a few light smudges to soften the look. Perfect for day and with a slightly darker and thicker line, it's a hot look for night too!
