MAKEUP: Hung Vanngo for M.A.C.

HAIR:
Laurent Philippon for Bumble and Bumble

SNAPSHOT:
Chic and simple androgyny

THE SCOOP:
Rad Hourani's
Spring Collection had a very unisex vibe with pieces intended to cater to both sexes. Lead makeup stylist Hung Vanngo used the androgynous element of Rad's collection to inspire his beauty look. "Less is really more," said Hung. Rad's collection is dominated by black, white and silver color, yet still maintains a scintillating sensation of spring. In order to create a similar fresh and bright look for the face, Hung aimed for a natural but groomed and healthy appearance using very little makeup. Skin was to appear shiny and pure and eyes were almost completely untouched. Hair stylist Laurent Philippon balanced the fresh faced look with a lacquered ponytail at the neck to add a slight graphic edge to the overall appearance.

GET THE LOOK - MAKEUP:
All makeup by M.A.C. To create Hung's simple and glowing look, for the face, use Strobe Cream for deeply moisturized and smooh looking skin. For eyes, use Fast Response Eye-Cream to firm and soften the area around the eye and make the eyelid shine. Use no mascara or liner for a simple and natural freshness.

GET THE LOOK - HAIR:
For Laurent's sleek hairstyle, apply Bumble and Bumble Gel generously throughout your hair and gently work it through. The gel dries slowly so you can work it through your hair over and over. Run a comb through the hair and make sure that the lines of the comb are visible as the gel dries. Finally, tie the ponytail in an elastic at the nape of your neck. For the show, the elastic was taken out of the models' hair right before they stepped on the runway so that the hair would remain perfectly in place.
