RAFW: Swim Fashion Week

Make-up

"It's Australian swimwear and we have come up with a look to suit all the different designers. It's very sophisticated and soft, but still a little bit sexy. We have a beautiful shimmer down the centre of the eye, which is M.A.C Rose Pigment with a reflector over the top for a really pretty shine. The lashes are big and sexy. The skin has a medium coverage and we are using a photographic liner to really lighten the inner corners of the eyes. It's a sexy, fresh, summer feel." - Carol Mackie for M.A.C

Hair

"For today's show I have two briefs. Brief number one is 'Beautiful sexy Victoria's Secret model', so we've crimped the crown area before we've tonged because we want it to be really big. I'm also using some waving clamps to deepen the wave at the front. The second concept is that we have five Aboriginal looks. What we've done with those is set them in and out of coat hangers. We've cut the coat hangers so we've got a U then we are weaving a figure-8 before flat ironing it, so we get a zig-zag. I wanted the frizziness but also with some shape. It will be a nice medium with also a bit of floatiness." - Lorna Evans for Redken

Nails

"We're going for quite a neutral nail because there is so much colour from the different designers. There is a separate group of girls wearing Aboriginal costumes, so for them we've used beautiful, bright electric blues and oranges." - Fiona Hay for ORLY
