Luar & OPI

ANIMAL PRINT
The first clue was the name – talons! Nail artist Naomi Yasuda used iconic OPI base shades in two coats to conjure extra-long nails that come to a dangerously extravagant point. She then applied decals made from resin moulds. A top coat ensures lasting shine.

What gives the nail its real wow factor is the silver tone animal print. Think it’s too impractical? Think again, shorten the length but keep the pattern. It looks great with a trench, jeans and a tee.

MAC & Vivienne Westwood

SPARKLE
Makeup artist Daniel Sällström created highly structured looks with graphic eye liner, angular face contour and nude lips traced in dark tones. Silver’s shimmer easily lend itself to makeup. A swish of shadow, rimmed tear ducts and lids, blush that catches the light. Take this sparkly, celebration-worthy colour into your wardrobe. Add a sequin scarf, veil or shawl to enhance a simple black and white suit.
