Couture 2008 Make-up Trends: Pallavi Jaikishan

No shrinking violets here! For Pallavi Jaikishan's showing, Mehra Kolah puts the spotlight on scarlet lips and nails that did justice to the models' porcelain skin.

Mehra fuses elements from two bygone eras to create the look: strong eyebrows circa the eighties and scarlet lips circa the thirties. In order to maintain that focus, she keeps the skin fresh, glowing and transparent, and the lids and cheeks pale.

"I've used Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick in Pink on the apples of the cheek to make them look healthy," revealed Kolah. "For lips, get a deep color, outline the lips with a lip pencil so it doesn't bleed, and fill it in with color. If you are careful with your lipstick and don't smudge it, you can add a hint of gloss... otherwise red on its own is brilliant."

"Define the contour of your eye in shades of brown, depending on your skin tone. Add a hint of bronze and gold shimmer for a glamorous look. Don't use an eye liner. Instead, up the amp with coats of mascara," advises Mehra.
