The Best of Hair, Nails, & Makeup for Fall 2015

by Julia DiNardo

The good news about what you can expect for fall 2015 when it comes to hair, nails, and makeup is that most looks revolve around things you’ve already seen before, just a bit tweaked, enhanced, and updated, that’s all! Follow along as I walk you through the trends, with some standout looks that epitomize them, which also happen to be my favorites, created by the artists behind renowned brands such as essie, Zoya, NARS, Maybelline, Davines, TRESemmé, and more. There are a total of 12 trends across the beauty categories that I just had to include in this feature; which is your favorite?

Hair:

Various takes on the French Twist

[Joseph DiMaggio for Davines wanted to create a cool coif, done, but not too done, so this style didn’t have a distinct part, with everything swept over to one side, rolled it up on top, and bringing it down into an effortless French twist. To get that much-needed volume, he used Davines More Inside This is a Volume Boosting Mousse to the hairline and root only while sectioning the hair.]

The Best of Backstage Beauty: Hair

by Julia DiNardo

Twists, buns, braids, and natural glamour was the range for hair trends at New York Fashion Week, fall 2014 collections. See below for our favorite looks from the week!
tadashi fall 2014

Rodney Cutler for ULTA Beauty went with Tadashi Shoji‘s Moroccan influence, creating an ethereal look by starting with a blow dry and the Redken Spray Starch 15 Heat Styling Spray, then setting with a 1.5 barrel curling iron along using Redken Powder Grip 03 Texturizing Hair Powder for more volume and texture. After creating a side part, take the hair into three sections and braid as an anchor, then rolling the left side over top and set with the Redken Fashion Work 12 Versatile Working Spray.

kate spade fall 2014

At Kate Spade for Fall 2014, Tommy Buckett for Garnier was a favorite this season, deriving inspiration from the designer’s trip to Shanghai, and featuring a sleek look using the new products of Fructis Style Power Wax Disorder and Fructis Style Power Hairspray Order. For the polished, sleek look, Tommy initially started with spraying the Fructis Marvelous Oil-5 Action Hair Elixir all over, the Disorder for grip, and the order to set and tame flyaways and baby hairs. Tommy also used a leather wrap at the base of the ponytail for a bit of an edge to the overall look.

With a bit of a menswear influence found at Rebecca Minkoff, Jeanie Syfu for TRESemmé created a ‘sexy tomboy’ aesthetic, a combo of polished and slightly disheveled. It’s a pretty easy look to create yourself; here’s the steps and products that Jeanie recommends:

  • Blow-dry hair with TRESemmé Thermal Creations Mousse using a flat brush
  • Apply a small amount of TRESemmé Split Remedy Leave-In Treatment to the ends
  • Mattify hair with TRESemmé Fresh Start Renewing Dry Shampoo (one of my favorites!) , then create a center part
  • Lightly back-brush to create an airy texture and brush hair into a low ponytail, fastening with an elastic just below the nape of the neck
  • Gently pull a few wisps of hair from the ponytail to frame the face
  • Finish with TRESemmé 24 Hour Body Finishing Spray as needed

Pretty great looking, righ? At Hervé Leger, Laurent Philippon for Bumble and Bumble created a sophisticated, slick ponytail with Bumble and Bumble’s Does It All Spray, using extensions were used for length and color;  aqua blue or coral were added based on what each model was wearing in the show.

tigi mara hoffman

Nick Irwin for Hair by CATWALK by TIGI at Mara Hoffman went with the North African inspiration and channeled it into a loosened up braid, that was then finished off with the base of it being sprayed with gold! Très chic! Here’s the tips from Nick on recreating the look:

  • Starting with clean, dry, straight hair, create a deep and clean side part on the left side
  • Next, secure wefts of hair at back of head and sides to achieve desired thickness and length.
  • Work CATWALK® by TIGI® Strong Hold Mousse from roots to ends, using a round brush to blowdry smooth
  • Begin to French braid the hair beginning at the nape, working your way into a three-plait braidthrough the ends. Secure with a small elastic and use a diffuser on low heat to set the wave
  • Once set, gently remove the braid and work CATWALK® by TIGI® Session Series True Waxthrough the ends of the three individual sections of hair
  • Using a three-plait technique, braid only the last couple of inches of hair and spray generouslywith CATWALK® by TIGI® Session Series Finishing Spray
  • To finish, spray the small braid with a gold-colored hair spray

thakoon kerastase

The “wet look” was in last season, so it comes as not much of a surprise that the “gym look” could be the next iteration of that! Odile Gilbert for Kérastase at Thakoon created the slightly sweaty, post-gym look (no actual work out required) with Powder Bluff dry shampoo for texture, while gel (Lift Vertige) was worked in the front, along the hairline to give the gym vibe.

The Best of Backstage Beauty: Nails

by Julia DiNardo

Ready to talk nails? This season, we saw quite a bit more of the “natural nail” look, which means find shade of pink and beige that will work perfectly with your skin tone. We also saw some fabulous dark shades of deep red, geometric nail art, rich metallic hues, a new twist on a French, and of course, some really blinged out nail looks. Read on for FPD’s top nail looks and the products used so that you can try this at home!

kate spade fall 2014

At Kate Spade, Deborah Lippmann created an “uptown girl” nail that was more of an extension of the skin, playing to the natural trend with a long almond shape, and using  two coats of “Naked,” an ultra sheer beige, followed by one coat of Gel Lab Top Coat to add some gel manicure-like shine.

Julie Kandalec for essie went for a matte, ever so slightly mauve nail to let the clothes do the talking on the runway at Hervé Leger this season, using one coat of “lady like,” one coat of “good to go top coat,” and finished off with “matte about you top coat.” Matte top coats add such a versatility to your existing lineup of polishes, making an easy finish change a breeze!
