Chanel: Lucia Pica’s Romantic Punk Look for Chanel Haute Couture Fall-Winter 2020/21
A punk approach to beauty, but also opulent, gritty and sophisticated: for the Autumn-Winter makeup collection Chanel offers us a lipstick with an intense color and bright but natural skin, the result of a careful skincare that allows a light, almost impalpable base. The foundation used for these shots is Les Beiges Water-Fresh Tint, while the touches of light are given by the iconic Éclat Lumiére. The Palette Essentielle palette sculpts and chisels the face.
For a veil of color on the cheeks, the Maison used the blush Joues Contraste – N° 320 Rouge Profond and the Baume Essentiel – Rosée (from the Autumn Winter 2020 collection), while the voluptuous shade on the lips, which gives a punk and edgy vibe but always keeping the whole makeup elegant, is obtained thanks to the Rouge Coco lipstick in N° 494 Attraction, available in the Autumn-Winter 2020 Collection.
In addition, Chanel recently recreated the exclusive Joues Contraste collection, designed to celebrate the anniversary of the iconic blusher, which was created in 1980 and since then has kept an iconic status and an unfaltering spot in the hearts of beauty addicts.
To celebrate the 40 years of this blush, Chanel created an iconic limited edition pack and offers to combine each shade of the blush with a mini Rouge Coco Flash lipstick.

Aqua Resist And The New MUFE Campaign
Through the new Aqua Resist campaign, created in collaboration with the makeup artist James Kaliardos, MUFA invites everyone to go beyond their limits and live every moment to the fullest. The campaign focuses on a group of cool young people that includes the model Sean Levy, who perfectly embodies the active and charismatic lifestyle of Aqua Resist.
More precisely, this is a range of life-proof makeup that allows you to live life intensely, both physically and emotionally, always and everywhere: today the range is enriched by the Aqua Color Pencil eye pencil and the Aqua Resist stick Smoky Shadow.
But let’s discover more about the novelties of the collection! The waterproof pencil is available in 10 shades, sweat and smudge-proof. With a great staying power, this product has a silky gel texture that makes the application seamless and always precise thanks to the built-in sharpener.
The Smoky Shadow, instead, combines practicality and high pigmentation in a single gesture, for a product (available in 16 colors) that lasts up to 24 hours.
The application is hyper versatile: its silky and comfortable formula lends itself perfectly to be used as khôl (at the base of the lashes), eyeliner (upper or lower lash line) or applied to the entire eyelid as an eyeshadow.
