"Designer Faces: Hair and Makeup From Marc Jacobs&amp;#39;s Fall 2010 Runway Show\\nPale violet eyes and easygoing hair made the models look like authentic downtown girls.\\nFor what is being hailed as one of Marc Jacobs's best collections ever, the models walked to \\\"Somewhere Over the Rainbow\\\" on a set meant to resemble the inside of a giant cardboard box. Even their clothes were neutral tones. \\\"Marc said the only hint of color he wanted on the runway was in the makeup,\\\" Fran\u00E7ois Nars told us.\\n\\\"They're sexy, cool girls\u2014the kind of girls you see in the East Village, or a caf\u00E9 in Paris, or around London,\\\" said Nars. \\\"We were thinking about Kate Moss when she's gone out the night before and still has some of her makeup on the next morning, but it's slightly worn off.\\\"\\nThat meant all the makeup was applied with a finger\u2014\\\"so it would look a little destroyed,\\\" Nars said. He even used old tubes of mascara on the lashes, to assure that they would clump.\\n\\n\\n\\nWe asked him Nars how he collaborates with Marc, and he let us in on what sounded like the most chilled-out scene one could imagine: \\\"We hung out for two days before the show. We just looked at the clothes and listened to music and talked about ideas. The process is very natural.\\\"\\nNars brought giant palettes containing dozens of shadow colors. But the one he focused on was a pale lavender. He used [Nars Single Eyeshadow in D. Gorgeous](http://www.allure.com/beauty-products/makeup/2011/nars-single-eyeshadow-d-gorgeous) on the lids, and [Nars Eyeliner Pencil in Black Moon](http://www.allure.com/beauty-products/makeup/2010/nars-eyeliner-pencil-black-moon) along the lashes, top and bottom.\\nOn the lips, Nars used a discontinued shade that Marc had brought to the hair and makeup test\u2014__Nars Barbarella,__ a pale orange-coral. And on the cheeks: \\\"There's practically no blush, to give that pale, underground type of feel,\\\" Nars said as he dotted on just a hint of his __Enchanted Cream Blush.__\\nThe major buzz at the show: the fact that Marc cast mostly unknown models\u2014and even invited two cool girls he'd plucked from the streets of New York City to walk his runway.\\nGuido told us that Marc had brought him a still from an old French film as inspiration. \\\"For this collection, it's more about a feeling than a hairstyle,\\\" he said. \\\"The girl is sophisticated, but in an easygoing way.\\\"\\nKey to the look: \\\"A great cut, then you can let your hair do its own thing,\\\" Guido told us. He trimmed every model's hair to a couple of inches below her collarbone\u2014\\\"the perfect length\\\"\u2014then dampened the hair and applied __Redken Fabricate 03 Texturizer__ and let it all air dry. That was it.\\nMarc asked his longtime nail pro, Elisa Ferri, to custom blend five different CND polish colors for the show\u2014with the finished products spanning the neutral spectrum from beige to gray. The designer appropriately referred to one color, a mix of both shades, as \\\"Greige.\\\"\\nThose nude nail shades were echoed throughout the collection, like in this amazing bag.\\nAnd finally, there's the designer himself, out to take a bow. If you look closely, you can see the cardboard-box backdrop."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
