THE THEME

SPIRIT OF SOUL

This yearʼs theme presents the independent and self-confident young woman, with the courage to use colour. Colour underlines her individual personality and embodies expression and passion.

This “SPIRIT OF SOUL” stands for the strength of the individual to show character with pride. The perfect look will be created using this yearʼs fashion label and your make-up.

THE LABEL

Milay, the young Berlin fashion label, creates urban aesthetic streetwear. Multicultural like a pulsating metropolis, this label combines a cool mix of ethnotypical patterns, interesting designs and colours in a colour-blocking style. Relaxed and casual, but always stylish and hip, the looks emphasise the individuality of the young, trendy woman.

THE LOOK

The foundation corresponds to the natural skin tone and is perfect and even. Redness, circles under the eyes and impurities are covered with a concealer so that the skin appears flawless and fresh. To give the face shape, it is properly contoured and additionally given a warm tone with a bronzer. For even more freshness, rouge is applied to the cheeks in an apricot tone and highlights are placed on the highest areas of the face to round off the look.

The eyebrows are combed and fixed. Uneven areas are repaired with a suitable eyebrow product. A copper tone is applied to the entire movable eyelid. Subsequently, the eye is intensified and accentuated with dark brown into a cat-eye shape. With a purple eyeliner pencil the lower lash line and the waterline are now emphasised. To intensify and fix the colour, a purple eye shadow is applied above the kajal. A bright yellow in the inner corner of the eyes rounds off the exciting look of the eye make-up.

The lips are outlined with a nude-brown contour pencil and filled with a lipstick of the same colour. The lipstick and the contour pencil are matte.
