Get the Armani Privé look

Giorgio Armani Privé's "Shocking" haute couture show in Paris delighted fashion followers this week with its focus on bold, punkish and unapologetic pink. And the makeup look was just as striking.

Beauty artist Linda Cantello channeled the emotional eccentricity of the collection into a flamboyant makeup look that was dramatic and pretty.

Cantello explains her interpretation of the collection, saying: "Shocking. Break the rules, dare to play at being provocative. Why not wear fuchsia in autumn? Pink is the new red."

Cantello prepared the models' skin using Armani's Crema Nera Extrema Supreme Crème Réactivante for a luminous base, before using her fingers to apply Crema Nuda foundation for natural-looking coverage and High Precision Retouch to conceal any imperfections. A sweep of Poudre Libre Microfil was then used to keep everything in place.

Eyes were defined but not dramatic, leaving the real focus on the lips. Cantello used Smooth Silk Eye Pencil in the shade Grey to line the lids, before filling them in with Eye Tint in shade number 7 and adding a fleck of color along the lash line with Eye Tint in shade 12, a shimmery gold.

Elongated, defined brows were created by mixing the new Eye&Brow Maestro in Jet Black and Platinum, set to hit stores in January 2016. A sweep of silver from the new palette Luxe is More, available from November, provided the finishing touch.

And so to the showstopper: the pink lip. Cantello used the house's new Ecstasy Lacquer lipstick in Maharajah for a bright, vibrant pop of color. The new range of long-lasting lip colors will be available for purchase from September.
