CONCERNS WITH POLLUTION SEEM TO BE ON THE RISE FOR CUSTOMERS TRYING TO DO THE BEST FOR THEIR SKIN. HOW IMPORTANT DO YOU THINK THIS IS AND ARE YOU SEEING A SHIFT IN THIS CONCERN IN YOUR CUSTOMERS?

OVERNIGHT ANTIPOLLUTION TREATMENT A night gel cream that puts daily indoor and outdoor pollution damage to sleep by working with your skin’s natural circadian rhythm at the most optimal time.

P

OLLUTION IS MOST DEFINITELY on the rise in our counter conversations!

We have more people, more cars, more factories, bad air and other indoor pollutants than the world has ever seen. Coupled with less sleep, more work, increased stress, fast food, etc., protecting our skin from pollutants is important, just like protecting our skin from the sun. Pollutants can cause inflammation and increase free radicals on the skin, which in turn causes premature aging. More of my customers are asking for ingredients and products that help their skin recover from both daily damage and get it ready for the next day.

They are always looking for products that help their skin. Increased concerns to improve dull lack luster skin, dehydration and a desire to have help with smoothness and lines are common concerns at our counter.

Skin renewal is most efficient while you sleep, and this nightly treatment features a complex of ingredients and antioxidants to help you RECOVER overnight and FORTIFY for the next day.

UP FRONT

PUBLISHER’S NOTE THE CHALLENGES THE COVID-19 HEALTH CRISIS has imposed on the beauty industry

in Canada and around the world has beauty retailers reinventing the way they will operate moving forward.

As stores start to reopen, the changes are quickly felt by the limited number of guests in store, the hold on makeovers, product testers and demonstrators, and both staff and guests having to wear a mask.

For beauty advisors, shift work will take on a whole new meaning with fewer staff allowed in store and behind the counter. And unfortunately for some, they will not have the same job six months from now.

We are noticing that technology will start to take the lead in this next phase of retail. Specifically, scanning technology will ramp up with shopping carts and apps that will scan your purchases as you walk through the store, eliminating the need to stop at a checkout location. Shoppers will learn to follow the arrows painted on the floors to help maintain social distancing, and the days of leisurely mall walks will become a thing of the past. Although customer service is going to change, it will not disappear.

One positive we can take from all of this is people still need beauty products–whether or not they have to go back to work. So do what you do best, wear a smile and exude a positive attitude, and we will get through this together.

EDITOR’S LET TER SUMMER, WITH ITS PROMISE

of balmy days and an abundance of sunshine, is just around the corner. But it isn’t the only thing we’re celebrating. On May 7th, the third annual Canadian Beauty Awards were held in a live webcast. Though the current climate necessitated that it move from its original venue to a virtual setting, the event was nevertheless a resounding success. In this issue, you’ll find the 24 winners across the categories of makeup, skincare and fragrance as voted by our industry insiders (page 27).

At a time when we’re grateful for joys both big and small, beauty has been an instant mood booster.

This season, we’re lifting our spirits with the latest makeup trends. Whether you’re feeling adventurous enough to try the floating liner look (page 18) or want to get on board with all-over gloss (page 19), they’re guaranteed beauty pick-me-ups. Beyond makeup, we also explore the importance of body care (page 22) and the skin-soothing properties of cica, a plant extract that has a bevy of benefits (page 69) and is the star in some of our favourite new skincare products.

Whatever summer looks like for you, we hope that you’ll remember to cherish all the moments of joy and happiness.

Chalk it up to the extra time indoors, but we are a pair of scissors and the right sewing pattern away from cutting up the contents of our living room in an attempt to recreate a few of our favourite looks snapped on 2020 runways.

At Gabriela Hearst, upcycled vintage Turkish kilim rugs were used to create tailored jackets and matching weekender totes for her F/W 2020 Ready-to-Wear presentation. At Missoni S/S 2020, ankle-length skirts and maxi dresses had an anything-goes DIY patchwork feel, and at Oscar de La Renta, silk twill coats were made using a mix of co-creative director Laura Kim's favourite archival patterns. And the fun with fabric didn't stop at clothing.

Laurent Philippon, Bumble and Bumble global fashion director, weaved fabric into ponytail braids at Jonathan Cohen's New York Fashion Week S/S 2020 presentation, and at Anteprima's showcase in Milan, makeup artist Anna Maria Negri Brida paired a barely there makeup look with intricate string art in shades of blue and orange.

With a global push to find new ways to use the resources we have and not continue to make new ones, we expect to see many more incarnations of this particular trend. So, what's the holdup? Pass the scissors. — Heather Marrin

Go with the Glow

THE SUMMER GLOW we’re forever chasing is simply looking like we just sailed on a boat in Ibiza or soaked up the sun on a beach in St. Lucia. A good bronzer will give you that good glowiness without looking like you have any on at all (think natural instead of contoured). Take Fenty Beauty by Rihanna’s Cheeks Out Cream Bronzers, available in warm, neutral, and cool shades, designed to give any skin tone a sun-kissed look that’s neither matte nor shimmery. Givenchy’s Healthy Glow Powder adds a touch of warmth and feels like a second skin with its satin finish.

Quo Beauty’s pressed powder keeps cheeks healthy and radiant in four shades.

Grace Lee, Maybelline New York’s national makeup artist for Canada, recommends using a gel liner pencil to achieve the look; it will glide on easier and stay put. And don’t be afraid to play with colour—vibrant hues are what make this look fun.

“The line should be visible and above the crease,” says Lee. “When applying, look in the mirror with your eyes open so you know exactly where to draw the eyeliner.”

The Korean skincare trend started gaining popularity back in 2017 and it’s still going strong: Gucci Westman created glowy complexions for Khaite’s Spring 2020 show, and at JW Anderson’s A/W 2020 presentation models looked fresh with super dewy cheeks and minimal makeup.

“The traditional way to achieve this look involves multiple layers of products,” says Toronto-based makeup and hair artist Sheri Stroh. “But you can get the same results with less.” Proper cleansing and gentle exfoliation are key to start with. Then, Stroh recommends going for products like essences, face mists and waterbased serums. “Start slow; don’t use too many products too quickly, that will only irritate your skin,” she says. Follow with a moisturizer and, before SPF, an oil to seal everything in. Stroh likes squalane since it’s lightweight and non-greasy. “Just put a couple drops in your palms and pat it onto the areas where you want a dewy sheen,” she says.

B OD Y T A L K Forgetting something?

Your body needs a skincare routine, too.

B y K a t e Ke n n e d y

22

MANY OF US WILL HAPPILY dedicate time and resources to a multi-step facial skincare routine—only to leave our body to fare with a ho-hum cleanser and the same moisturizer we’ve used for years (and that’s on a good day). Suddenly crepey, scaly and sun-damaged skin has replaced the dewy, even tone we remember.

When did this happen?

“People often forget about the skin on their neck, chest and body. You’ll often see women looking great only from the chin up and neglecting the other areas,” says Lisa Marie Blais, founder of celebrity-frequented Vancouver medi-spa The Skin Girls. Because skin on the body is generally more resilient and less exposed, it’s often overlooked until it’s too late—or at least until it feels that way. But it’s not too late to create a routine that will revitalize and renew skin on the body. Follow these steps below to get your glow back, stat.

COSMETICSMAG.COM | SUMMER 2020

F E AT U R E

STEP 1: CLEANSE WITH CARE “Having a consistent skincare body routine is essential for healthier, softer, brighter and clearer skin. It should include cleansing, exfoliating and moisturizing,” says Tina Griffin, Body Blitz’s resident skincare expert and director of Blitz Facial Bar by Body Blitz in Toronto. As a general rule, if skin feels tight, itchy or squeaky after cleansing, you can do better. Swap stripping cleansers for one that softly removes impurities, like Drunk Elephant’s new Kamili Cream Body Cleanser, which has ultra-gentle cleansing agents, natural oils and amino acids to hydrate and strengthen skin. Those with acne- or psoriasis-prone skin may want to cycle CeraVe’s SA Cleanser into their routine, which has ceramides and niacinamide to soothe skin, while its 2% strength salicylic acid exfoliates.

Try to avoid hot baths and showers, as they can lead to premature aging, says Griffin: “Take a warm shower instead and finish with cold water to close the pores, contract the muscles and tone the skin.”

DRUNK ELEPHANT Kamili Cream Body Cleanser, $26, at Sephora.ca.

CERAVE SA Cleanser, $17, at mass retailers.

LOTUS AROMA Bath & Body Wash Sweet Orange & Mandarin,

$22, at mass drugstores.

STEP 2: POLISH IT OFF Manual exfoliation tends to excite utter devotion after a sumptuous-scented new purchase only to succumb to a case of “What’s the use?” a few weeks later. This is the use: even the most action-packed moisturizers won’t be able to work their magic through layers of rough, flakey skin. Try an in-shower scrub with naturally sourced beads once or twice a week, depending on skin sensitivity.

Griffin recommends the Body Blitz Eucalyptus Mineral Scrub and scrub mitt to increase circulation, remove dead skin cells and help moisturizer penetrate deeper into the skin. Dry brushes are also a great option— especially for those with a history of ingredient-related irritation. “Use on dry skin and brush upwards towards the heart to stimulate lymphatic drainage, shed dead skin cells, and improve blood circulation,” says Griffin. A fiveminute dry brushing session first thing in the morning can feel like an espresso shot to the system!

STEP 3: H Y D R AT E + A C T I V AT E Today’s body moisturizers do more than hydrate and protect skin, they can boost collagen production, smooth texture and tone, and diminish imperfections. Look for exfoliating acids on ingredients lists, as well as hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, vitamin-A derivatives, ceramides and peptides. (Basically, what you put on your face will benefit your body, too.) Medical-grade body creams are key, says Blais. She recommends body lotions containing glycolic acid to improve skin tone and texture and loves IS Clinical Body Complex, which has hyaluronic acid, fruit acid enzymes and white willow bark extract (a gentle salicylic acid dupe). Even those with sensitive skin can enjoy the exfoliating payoff of salicylic acid with Lavido’s Thera Intensive Body

Cream, which balances the BHA with soothing shea butter, hyaluronic acid and 12 plant extracts including lavender, tea tree and black cumin seed oils.

Because skin on the body tends to be less sensitive, a serum that might feel slightly intense on the face could be a game-changer for arms or legs. Even extra essence from a replenishing facial sheet mask can benefit the body (bonus points if applied directly after exfoliating). For expedited results, RéVive Skincare—founded by a plastic and reconstructive surgeon—has recently released its Supérieur Body Nightly Renewing Serum (yes, a body serum) that’s packed with peptides, hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, glycolic and lactic acids (and more) for the ultimate in overnight body renewal.

LAVIDO Thera-intensive Body Cream,

$61, at Lavido.ca.

RÉVIVE Supérieur Body Nightly Renewing

Serum, $280, at Reviveskincare.com.

STEP 4: P R O T E C T + PA M P E R Exfoliating acids can increase sun sensitivity, so it’s even more imperative to protect skin from sun exposure while you’re acing your new routine. Chest, hands and forearms are often the first place crepey skin creeps in. As Blais puts it, “Daily use of sunscreen and reapplying every two hours is a must!” Shiseido’s Ultra Sun Protection Lotion WetForce SPF 50+—a recent 2020 Canadian Beauty Awards winner—feels silky smooth on skin, turns invisible on application, and actually boosts protection when you sweat, making it an excusefree everyday sunscreen. (Visit page 16 for more of the newest in

sun protection.)

Now that skin is renewed and protected, it’s time to highlight those swerves and curves with a stay-put body shimmer like Sol de Janeiro’s new Limited Edition Glowmotions Glow Body Oil in Carnival Queen for a glimmering rose-gold glow. Looking for a subtler spotlight? Tanning cloths are trending this summer for their mess-free application and even colour delivery. Vita Liberata’s Phenomenal Organic Botanical Cloths are full of antioxidants and natural extracts to treat and revitalize skin while delivering a beachy bronze.

Lifetime Achievement Angela Gallo, Estée Lauder Winner!

OUR WINNER WAS born in Montreal

to her French-Canadian mother and her father, an Italian immigrant. With no siblings, Angela’s friends became her family, and the importance she placed on relationships has continued to define her both personally and professionally Angela’s parents taught her the fundamental values of honesty, generosity, mutual respect and caring for others. During her education, Angela was taught by nuns who instilled in her self-discipline and determination. In college, Angela’s plan was to become a lawyer, but fate intervened when she started working at Hudson’s Bay parttime for a little extra money. Angela’s store manager offered her a Section Head position at just 21 years old. Soon, her dream of becoming a lawyer was replaced by her new passion for retail and customer service.

Angela stayed with HBC for nine years, becoming a supervisor in different commodities. Then she was selected to be part of the Program Management Course and was transferred to HBC Montreal—where she had her first 58

exposure to the beauty business—as Assistant Sales Manager. After that, she was hooked!

Throughout her career, Angela has met industry icons, including Estée Lauder, Lise Watier, Oscar de la Renta and many more. In 1989, Angela applied for an Account Executive Position with Aramis and just a couple of years later, Estée Lauder offered her the position of Account Executive. It only took a few seconds for Angela to accept and join the ‘mother ship,’ as she calls it. In 2002, Angela was promoted to Regional Sales Director for Eastern Canada—and the rest is history.

ÉCRANS PROTECTEURS MÊME EN CONFINEMENT, on a la permission de prendre le soleil sur son balcon ! Une question se pose donc : Quelle crème solaire appliquer ?

Qu’on soit homme, femme ou enfant, il faut se protéger contre les vilains UV. Parce que l’exposition sans protection à ces rayons est cause de cancer.

Synonyme aussi de brûlures, de rides et de dérèglements de la pigmentation cutanée. Les dermatologues nous l’ont dit et redit : Il est primordial d’utiliser un écran solaire à large spectre et au FPS d’au moins 30 dès qu’on prévoit passer plus que cinq minutes en plein soleil et il ne faut pas oublier d’en réappliquer généreusement aux deux heures. On surveille aussi la date d’expiration du produit. Une panoplie de textures et de parfums nous sont proposés, alors prévenir les coups de soleil n’a jamais été aussi facile et agréable. Suivez le guide et bon été envers et contre tout !

Incandescence irrésistible L’ÉTÉ, MAQUILLAGE RIME avec légèreté.

On range nos fonds de teint compacts et nos rouges à lèvres mats ou foncés et on opte pour une mise en beauté lumineuse, plus naturelle. Comme il fait beau et chaud, on met également de côté les textures qui empêchent la peau de respirer. Fini aussi le teint pâle, on veut et vite exhiber un hâle.

Car, en plus de donner bonne mine, avoir une peau même légèrement teintée c’est sexy. Mais la chaleur ne fait pas que réconforter, elle fait aussi suer ! Voilà soudain que notre épiderme se met à briller effrontément et se permet de petites imperfections malvenues ! On troque illico sa crème de jour pour une version gel ou tout simplement moins riche et on applique un fond de teint à la texture poudrée. La peau étant déjà bronzée, inutile de rajouter de la matière : on mise sur une poudre bronzante, qui va apporter du relief et de l’éclat. Voici les teintes estivales à adopter.

QUELS SERONT LES GRANDS CRUS OLFACTIFS DE LA SAISON ? des beaux jours plus rapidement, on peut bien sûr prendre un avion direction Caraïbes, mais on peut tout aussi bien planer avec son nez !

Des notes légères et aériennes, couplées à une formulation plus légère et parfois moins chargée en alcool, c’est la bonne idée pour se parfumer quand on a envie que la fraîcheur succède à la froidure.

Les parfumeurs se délectent à remplir les flacons de l’été de notes puissantes et généreuses destinées à nous propulser plein Sud dans un voyage olfactif ensoleillé.

Pouvoir énergisant de l’orange sanguine, effet glaçon de la menthe, exhalaisons enivrantes de la fleur de tiaré, pouvoirs insoupçonnés des pépins de fruit de la passion, tiédeur aromatique de la brise marine… le sillage sensuel des nouveaux opus parfumés nous catapultent littéralement au bord de la mer.

La beauté, un service essentiel Notre planète vit un moment inédit de son histoire contemporaine. À cause de la pandémie de COVID-19, le temps est partout en suspension.

Ce virus a beau être invisible, il n’en est pas moins féroce, ce qui nous a menés à quitter presque tous nos lieux de travail et à rester confinés à demeure. Cette crise, qui a bien sûr des répercussions profondes sur le moral des gens, a aussi de nombreuses conséquences néfastes sur le paysage économique et bien sûr sur l’industrie cosmétique.

Selon une étude du NPD Group, le marché de la beauté prestige est lui aussi bouleversé depuis la fermeture imposée des magasins et peu de catégories de produits sont épargnées, seuls les savons pour les mains et les produits capillaires faisant figure d’exception.

Mais s’il est vital de se savonner méticuleusement les mains à répétition, on ne devrait pas oublier pour autant d’hydrater sa peau, de soigner ses ongles, de veiller sur ses dents et son haleine et, pourquoi pas, de se faire beaux… Rester à la maison offre une occasion unique d’expérimenter différents produits de beauté.

Toujours selon le NPD Group, le confinement quasi planétaire a entraîné une augmentation fulgurante du cybercommerce. Ainsi, les ventes en ligne représentent normalement environ 20 % des ventes totales de l’industrie de la beauté 66

crise que de gros changements s’opèrent et ainsi qu’on se redéfinit et qu’on explore de nouvelles possibilités. Les fabricants et commerçants devront donc s’ajuster à ce nouveau consommateur et ajuster aussi le soutien qu’ils apportent à leurs équipes en points de vente.

Internet deviendra un outil de Selon David Durand, présidentdirecteur général du Groupe NAOS communication encore plus à privilégier pour informer le consommaAmérique du Nord : teur et pour bien former les conseillers « Il est encore tôt pour dire que et les conseillères beauté. » cette crise aura des impacts positifs sur l’industrie de la beauté. Ce qui est L’industrie sera aussi appelée à certain, c’est qu’elle aura des impacts participer à la valorisation de la à court, moyen et long termes. Ce que vente de produits locaux, qui l’on peut imaginer de manière seront mis de l’avant pour favoriser immédiate, c’est une accélération de l’économie locale. la mutation des comportements Isabelle Villeneuve, vice-présid’achat et particulièrement une dente, Stratégie, qualité et innoaccélération de la digitalisation de vation chez Laboratoire Dr Rel’acte d’achat des consommateurs naud, est pour sa part convaincue canadiens.

Jennifer Brodeur, présidentefondatrice de JB Skin Guru Inc, croit pour sa part que : « Les consommateurs réaliseront de plus en plus que moins, c’est vraiment plus. Lorsqu’ils effectueront des achats, ils penseront à leur influence locale, environnementale et économique. » Dans l’écosystème de la beauté d’après-crise, il y aura sûrement des changements importants en ce qui a trait à la commercialisation et à la distribution des produits. Le marketing devra s’ajuster et être plus inventif.

François Carlier, président de Prestilux Inc, incubateur de marques de beauté au Canada, est d’avis qu’avec les nouvelles générations de consommateurs l’économie de demain ne pourra être durable que si elle prend en compte de nouvelles habitudes de consommation plus saines et mesurées. Il croit aussi que l’essor marqué des ventes en ligne n’est probablement pas qu’un phénomène lié au confinement mais va s’ancrer de plus en plus dans les mœurs de consommation. Cela aura d’ailleurs des impacts importants sur les réseaux de distribution qui affecteront soit la survie de certains détaillants soit la gestion des achats et de leurs inventaires. Il va falloir continuer à faire preuve d’agilité et de réactivité pour s’adapter.

Samantha Daude Di Nacera, vice-présidente et chef de la direction marketing de L’Oréal Canada, partage les mêmes constatations lucides :

expertise et leurs services contribuent à la qualité de leur vie. »

« Les transactions électroniques, les services à distance, l’intelligence artificielle sont désormais devenus des outils essentiels à notre industrie et les consommateurs apprécient plus que jamais nos technologies. Nous sommes capables d’offrir des services personnalisés formidables, comme par exemple réaliser un diagnostic de peau à partir d’un selfie (égoportrait), tester une coloration de cheveux ou un maquillage grâce à la réalité virtuelle…. De manière générale, les engagements des grands de l’industrie de la beauté en matière de développement durable et de responsabilité sociétale prennent de plus en plus une importance capitale dans le contexte actuel. Les consommateurs sont très sensibles aux actions concrètes déployées par l’industrie en faveur de l’environnement et de la société en général. Aussi, il ne faut pas oublier à quel point cette crise impacte les services de beauté, comme l’industrie de la coiffure, par exemple. Je crois que les consommateurs, privés de ces services, réalisent plus que jamais l’importance de leur coiffeur, leur maquilleuse, leur cosméticienne, etc., et réalisent à quel point leur

« Il est important de souligner que, depuis toujours, l’industrie cosmétique a été la plus citoyenne.

Nous avons lancé en la matière de nombreuses initiatives et certaines autres marques l’ont fait aussi. À l’avenir, nous continuerons ces actions, que nous adapterons selon les besoins. »

SPRING 2020 | COSMETICSMAG.COM

Olivier Courtin-Clarins, directeur général de Clarins, affirme pour sa part :

Clarins compte en effet parmi les marques prestigieuses qui se sont mobilisées pour pallier cette crise sanitaire au Canada et dans le monde. Leur solidarité et leur générosité ont contribué à faire déferler une belle vague d’amour dans les hôpitaux et dans la population en général.

Une grande question demeure : Que va devenir l’industrie cosmétique après l’actuelle crise mondiale de la COVID-19 ? Nul ne saurait le dire avec certitude. Mais cette industrie a survécu au fil des décennies à de nombreuses crises mondiales sans y laisser sa peau et, comme a si bien dit Leonard Lauder en 2009, on aura peut-être un autre « lipstick effect » à la reprise de l’économie.

Ce qui nous fait rêver d’un joli retour à la normalité…

INGREDIENT 101

SEEKING CICA

PLANT POWER

Made with cica, shea butter, prickly pear extract and agave cryoextract, this moisturizer will soothe dry, sensitive skin.

S o o t h e d r y, i r r i t a t e d s k i n a l l s u m m e r l o n g w i t h t h i s proven ancient remedy

By Lora Grady weather and double-digit temperatures, but when the air gets hot and humid, our skin can start to pay the price. Between lounging poolside, swimming in chlorine and all that time in airconditioning, moisture can get sapped and you may start seeing some irritated patches. Enter cica, the skincare world’s latest hero.

An acronym for the medicinal plant Centella asiatica, cica is more commonly known as tiger grass (since Asian tigers would often roll in it to help heal their wounds). Dr. Sandy Skotnicki, founder of Toronto’s Bay Dermatology Centre, says it’s been used in folk medicine for hundreds of years. It stimulates collagen production and decreases inflammation, which makes it helpful for treating minor wounds like cuts and burns.

“It’s very useful for those with sensitive skin, because they often have mild invisible inflammation, including burning, stinging and redness,” says Skotnicki. She also recommends it for elderly skin that is photo-aged

and dry, and for people who suffer from eczema, rosacea or other inflammatory skin conditions. It’s also effective in improving the treatment of psoriasis and scleroderma, Skotnicki says. She even uses it herself from time to time: “If my face is reactive, I switch out my usual moisturizers and use a cica cream for a few days to settle it down.”

Philosophy recently launched its Nature In a Jar collection, which features a moisturizer formulate with cica. The brand uses Centella asiatica ethically sourced from an organiccertified plantation in Madagascar, says Muriel Pujos, director of skincare development (R&D) for Coty Inc. “Centella asiatica has a long history of soothing,” she says. “Any skin type can benefit from it since it has antioxidant and anti-aging properties, making it great for any age.” That means you can stay comfortable in your own skin no matter the temperature, from frigid AC in the office to humid nights on the patio.

AU NATUREL The Look: Peachy Keen Why We Love It: Wavy wisps, a peach-tone eye, rosey cheeks and a berry-balmed lip. From yoga to the altar, this blushing beauty is ready for anything.

Toronto-based makeup and hair artist Sheri Stroh creates the all-occasion looks that stop us in our Instascroll. An A-list roster that includes Catherine Zeta-Jones, Cate Blanchett and Penelope Cruz, her artistic style seemlessly pairs barely there makeup with hints of glam.

A leader in her industry, she has also garnered attention for her focus on environmentally friendly products and ingredient awareness.

The Look: Fancy Fresh Why We Love It: The bold, cat eye-style liner and glossy pout coupled with the casual top knot scream effortlessly chic.

The Look: Artfully Adorned Why We Love It: An ethereal highlight on the cheekbone is just the right complement to the subtly painted lid and brow. And the bright yet neutral-looking lip ties the elegant canvas together.

SUMMER 2020 | COSMETICSMAG.COM

The Look: No Makeup, Makeup Why We Love It: Playing up the natural brow, lip, lashline and freckles and adding only a slight touch of metallic shimmer to the eye is exactly what we admire about Stroh’s artistry: simple yet stunning.

The Look: Kiss Off Why We Love It: Stroh says, “Sometimes you don’t need a lip!” and we could not agree more.

The extra-bold brow and all-over eyeshadow leave zero amiss.
