The angels have descended in Manhattan. Victoria's Secret Angels, of course.
Supermodels Alessandra Ambrosio, Miranda Kerr, Selita Ebanks, Marisa Miller and a bevy of other beauties are back in New York City for "the sexiest show on earth."
And StyleList got a sneak peek as the long-legged ladies glammed up before taking flight on the catwalk. Here are the deets:
MAKEUP: Tom Pecheux
HAIR: Laurent Philippon
BEAUTY SNAPSHOT: Romantic Voyage
THE SCOOP: Victoria's Secret embodies sexy and there is nothing sexier than a confident woman wearing lingerie. So, for the fashion show's return to The Big Apple, the beauty professionals created looks that were sensual, yet natural.
Makeup artist Tom Pecheux was inspired by the models. "With a lot of new girls on the runway this season, I wanted to make it fresh," he said. "Nothing dramatic...extremely sexy and beautiful. When a lot of the body is showing, you don't want the face to appear made up."
Pecheux applied pink shimmer all over the face and added individual lashes to accentuate the smoky eye.
Hairstylist Laurent Philippon perfected loose waves for a style "that you would want to touch." Armed with hairspray, a curling iron and hair extensions, he added a touch of reality to this VS fantasy.

GET THE LOOK - HAIR: To recreate loose, sexy waves, add extensions for length and apply So Sexy Volumizing Mousse and Supersmooth Straightening Balm. Curl hair in alternate directions and softly comb through using a 1 inch comb. Finish with Natural Hold Hairspray.

Nobody should give a damn about Victorias secret anything! What underwear a woman wears ought to be her own business and not a topic of discussion. How superficial we-as Americans-have become to put importance on this!
