Makeup Looks We Love: Public School

When the skater boy’s best girlfriend who is a natural beauty and not afraid to be tough, walks down a runway how does she look?  This motif served as the inspiration for, Gucci Westman makeup look for Public School’s Fall/Winter ’14 Collection at New York Fashion Week.

Public School designers Dao-Yi Chow and Maxwell Osborne were named the winners of the Council of Fashion Designers of America/Vogue Fashion Fund Award, so the stakes were high for Westman.  She decided to go for a subtle and natural makeup look to compliment the high wattage collection.

“This look is all about the skin feeling luminous and natural. I wanted the look to be effortless, easy and have a really healthy glow” says Westman. “I was inspired by an enhanced version of the girl next door, but more of a raw yet gorgeous tomboy. I used skinlights on the cheeks to get a dewy glow and no mascara.  The look is an enhanced version of what she would already look like—ultra natural and cool, which works very well with Public School’s Fall collection.”
