Chanel Spring 2012 Beauty Report

by POPSUGAR Beauty AU 0

The most-anticipated show of the season (for us hardened Le Vernis addicts, anyway) took place in Paris yesterday as Karl Lagerfeld showed his Chanel Spring 2012 collection. Never one to do things by halves, the Grand Palais was transformed into a magical under-the-sea scene which inspired the beauty team: Chanel's go-to guys, makeup artist Peter Philips and hairstylist Sam McKnight. It translated into dewy, shimmering lids and wet-look lips and that gorgeously natural and romantic flush of blush that Philips does like no other. Hair wise, slick chignons were finished with pearls to carry the theme through —they also adorned models' ears, noses and even spines. And on nails we spied this pretty opaque pearlescent shade as well as a bright baby pink. Do you like it? We think it makes a pretty bridal beauty look, no?
