Hair Meets Make-up In Spring 2013
This week’s Under the Dryer comes to you from the 7th Avenue Plaza-located Eyes-A-Dazzle Beauty and Nail Salon, where veteran hairstylists and friends in the trade Juliet White and Lorraine Gilzene — with more than five decades of styling between them — were doing what they do best. In-between sips of the signature Absolut Fashion cocktails, courtesy of J Wray & Nephew Limited, clients were glammed-up with makeovers that featured the latest on-trend make-up looks straight from the Spring/Summer 2013 fashion week runways to complement their stylish ‘dos.
Clients: Simone Johnson, Sandra March, Toni-Ann Tingle, and Denishe Jeffrey
Sleek Finish
Simone Johnson, director of Sims Runway Fashions

Corporate Chic
Sandra March, programmes officer at the Mona School of Business, UWI
Sandra March was in town from Montego Bay for a function at the University of the West Indies, Mona Campus, when she decided she would have Lorraine Gilzene, who first styled her in 2004, create her look for the occasion.

Make-up
Not one to use make-up frequently, Sandra was cautious about the look she would receive from the Spring/Summer 2013 trends. She opted for a fresh-faced look from Proenza Schouler’s presentation at NYFW, with a pop of wine red lipstick for good measure.

* Lightly dust with Black Opal Invisible Loose Powder to the complete look.
Sandra’s take:
Lorraine knows what I expect when I come in to get my hair done, so I’m never worried when she styles my hair. The make-up looks so natural. This is my new look.
