This past weekend I was in New York for 2 (!!) weddings. One of them was in the city, and that afternoon my mom and I got our hair and makeup done. The day before she had been walking around the cosmetics floor at Bergdorf Goodman and stumbled upon some new products at the Estée Lauder counter. Mind you, she has never (or it’s been a very long time since she’s) used Estée Lauder, but she found some new things she absolute adored. SO, she decided THAT is where we had to get our makeup done the next day. And so we did.
Personally, I’ve never worn Estee Lauder, so I really had no clue what to expect, but when the Resident Makeup Artist, David Aikman, started working his magic on me, I knew I was in good hands.
You likely heard that Victoria Beckham, very recently, came out with a collection with Estée Lauder, and it’s pretty fabulous, if you ask me. Many of the products David used on me were from this collection.
All I told him was that I wanted a smokey eye of sorts and a red lip, and I was thrilled with how it turned out. It’s exactly what I wanted, and I’m not exaggerating when I say that the makeup stayed on ALL night. And, trust me, I was dancing UP A STORM, but it truly didn’t budge.
Below you’ll see the final outcome along with all the products David used. If you’re not in NY and don’t have access to Bergdorf Goodman, don’t worry, because Neiman Marcus sells all these products, as well PLUS you can shop them all below directly from MRG.
