Devi Kroell, the accessories designer with cult following debuted her second womenswear collection to critical acclaim. Kroell’s Fall 2009 Collection included architectural elements in signature luxury fabrics that included lamb fur, silks, and jewel-toned knits. Lead makeup artist Lisa Butler designed the makeup that centered upon flawless, perfect skin for the New York woman who travels from the office into the evening with elegance and style. Lisa Butler led the Temptu team by first applying Temptu S/B foundation all over the face to achieve a minimalist and elegant palette. Then the focus was on the eyes with Temptu S/B in Light Putty airbrushed on the crease for a bold yet soft eye, finished with a feathery black eye line. Lips were left moisturized and cheeks bare, the look were soft, matte and minimalist for fall.

 

How to get the look at Devi Kroell from Temptu:

1. Begin with Temptu S/B Foundation
2. Temptu S/B in Light Putty airbrushed onto the crease and minimally under the eye
3. Temptu S/B in Soft Black brushed along the rim of the eye
4. Temptu Invisible Difference Powder to finish the look

The look was topped by a plum black lip that is popping up all over fashion week, sure to be fall’s next big trend.
