Want to know how supermodel Cara Delevingne always looks so chic and effortlessly cool?  Wendy Rowe, one of Cara’s favorite makeup artists talks to us about how get the nude beauty look that Cara is so famous for.

Wendy Rowe is an international makeup artist and the Creative Director of Burberry Beauty and has worked with Cara on all her Burberry Campaigns and is known in the industry as the Master of Nudes .  We went behind the scenes with Wendy and her good friend supermodel Anja Rubik to find out why she feels nude makeup can work for everyone

“Nudes are not just about browns – think greys, taupes, mauves, pinks, golds… it’s all about finding the right tonal nude shades that work for your skin tone and making the skin look alive by putting colour into the cheeks and lips. The secret to nudes is about using different shades and textures, blending everything softly so there are no hard lines – it’s more realistic than hard shapes or lines, and it suits everyone”

Every month Wendy shares her round-up of the season’s beauty must-haves on her beauty blog WendyRowe.Com.  For all the latest news follow Wendy on Twitter @wendyrowemakeup and on Instagram @wendyrowe

Pat McGrath, the world’s hottest makeup artist shows us how to get the flawless look of Valentino Fall 2013 backstage at Paris Fashion Week.  Pat is Max Factor Global Cosmetics Design Director and in one season she creates some of the most directional makeup looks at New York, Milan and Paris collections.  We were grated exclusive access to film Pat backstage at Valentino, one of the most important shows at Paris fashion week.

As Pat explained to us backstage,  “It’s inspired by portraiture of a young girl,” McGrath said of the soft, romantic beauty look (Vermeer’s “Girl With a Pearl Earring” was on the designers’ inspiration board). The key to the beauty look was “flawless, perfected skin“, one of the key beauty trends for Fall.  Pat used MaxFactor Whipped Creme foundation (comes out September 2013) which gives a demi-matte finish to the skin and kept the rest of the look simple.  A touch of soft blush on the cheeks, and highlighter on the lids gave the models that innocent glow.  Watch our exclusive backstage beauty video with Pat McGrath backstage at Valentino here now.
