Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week is dwindling down.
And as the top designers in the Parisian fashion industry unveiled breathtaking fall designs, hairstylists and makeup artists were busy creating masterpieces themselves on the models who strutted down the runway in the over-the-top pieces.
From
towering hairdos to
in-your-face eye makeup to
Kate Moss-esque tousled tresses, we at StyleList are bubbling with excitement from these beauty trends.
Read on for the details on the top hair and beauty looks from the week in the City of Light.

Sculptural 'Dos and Wild Makeup: The models at
Jean-Paul Gaultier and
Christian Dior sauntered down the runway wearing
sky-high hairstyles that would make
Lady Gaga,
Snooki, and Judy Jetson blush. The ultra twisted and puffed 'dos were rounded out by statement-making beauty:
whimsical lashes,
bold lips, and neon
eyeshadows.

Sleek Strands and Dusty Lids: Straight hair and
smoldering eye shadow will never go out of style. And the beauty teams at
Elie Saab and
Giorgio Armani Prive rounded out the luxurious pieces by perfecting looks that allowed the natural glow of the models to shine through.

Oribe channeled old Hollywood with super-soft strands that contained lots of body and shine. "It's rich-looking with a bit of texture," says Oribe. To recreate the hairstyle, apply
Royal Blowout Heat Styling Spray to achieve a soft blow out. And finish by spritzing on
Impermeable Anti-Humidity Spray to beat frizz.

Grunge Tresses: As the beauty editors and writers at StyleList made our rounds during Fashion Week, we couldn't help but notice the recurring
Kate Moss theme. Elements of the supermodel popped up at
Alexander Wang,
Marc Jacobs,
Zero + Maria Cornejo, and
Proenza Schouler. So, it was no surprised when we spotted that "just-rolled-out-of-bed" hair on the runways of
Valentino and
Chanel.
