Aveda @ TulehTo elaborate on the short-story theme Tuleh designer Bryan Bradley penned for his Spring presentation yesterday, he chose one of history’s more fascinating characters as backstage muse. That would be Marilyn Monroe, albeit a slightly disheveled version of the iconic actress—”Or me, doing a teenager’s take on Marilyn,” explained makeup artist Polly Osmond. Tuleh's clothes are undeniably feminine, so a pink-makeup-plus-curly-volume look only made sense. "Our inspiration was a young Marilyn Monroe," said Ryan. "But with a downtown feel and kind of messed up. Like Marilyn, but the morning after."

That translated to matte skin and layered pink lids courtesy of MAC Eye Shadows in Rosy Outlook and Perky, which were rimmed on top with MAC Fluidline in Dipdown, a chocolate brown gel . A similarly rosy pout, painted on with MAC’s forthcoming Lipstick in Victorian—a vivid light pink color that’s a softer, more wearable version of cotton candy.
Osmond can really only do pure perfection, so the disheveled bit came from the hair department, where R-Session Tools’ Kevin Ryan was running the show. Applying generous amounts of Aveda Volumizing Tonic and Pure Abundance Hair Potion on sections before winding them around a one-inch curling iron, Ryan rolled brushed-out, back-combed tresses and pinned them under to create a “beat-up version” of Monroe’s famous bob. “It’s a bit messed up, not too perfect—Marilyn the morning after, though hopefully not her last morning,” Ryan said. Ryan said this 'do was a throwback to "true hairdressing. If you want a shortcut at home, Ryan's Rsession Tools Pinup Girl Kit includes everything you need to create Marilyn-esque updos at home.
NYC natural spa Priti has a new color coming out this spring: Crocus; a sheer, pearlescent gold/yellow that debuted at this show.
