Mark’s Picks for August
Mad Men |
John Master’s Organics Sea Mist Salt Spray With Lavender |
| “Season 4 has just begun and I’m re-addicted! This show is so smart and so sexy and I cannot get enough of it. You can see the influence of this show on runways and red carpets everywhere.” | “I discovered this product when my client Ellen Page requested I bring organic products with me to get her ready for the premiere of her film Inception. I used this spray in her dry hair and it created amazing piece-y, beach-y texture. Most salt water sprays can be too drying to the hair but the lavender in this spray works as a conditioner so it is the perfect balance. This product has a place in my kit permanently!” |
R Sessions Naluwaver |
Frank Gehry Rock Bowl for Tiffany & Co. |
| “I am in love with this double barrel iron and I used it to create the incredible waves in Deborah Ann Woll’s hair for her MARKTbeauty shoot. This iron can create curls or waves depending on how long you hold the hair in the barrels and never disappoints in creating amazing texture in the hair.” | “I love the architecture of Frank Gehry, so I am beyond obsessed with his designs for Tiffany & Co. I fill this bowl with fruit and keep it on my dining table and it looks like a piece of art. His jewelry designs are my all time favorite!” |
Chanel Hydramax Active Nutrition Lip Care |
Votre Vu Mender de Cheveux |
| “I have a borderline addiction to lip balms and I am not ashamed to admit it. I keep this one in my bag at all times and use it frequently throughout the day because it feels incredible and hydrates the lips without looking like I’m wearing lip gloss.” | “I was recently turned on to this strengthening serum by a client and I love what it does for the hair. It is loaded with sunscreens and heat activated so I tell my clients to pile this on their hair while at the beach or pool because it protects and conditions at the same time!” |
Lea Michele 4
“For our first photo shoot with MARKTbeauty, I wanted to show Lea with really high fashion, glamorous hair,” said Townsend

MAKEUP MOMENT
“Lea has great skin so I just used foundation to give her skin a clean polish,” said Bailey, who applied the lightweight formula with an angled brush for a sheer, buff finish. The complexion was the perfect backdrop for the main event: Striking raspberry lipstick. “I thought red lips would feel too holiday with the black clothing,” said Bailey. “This shade was sophisticated without looking too goth.”

MAKEUP MOMENT
“Lea has such strong features that she can get away with very little makeup and carry a lot of makeup,” said Bailey. It was this fierceness that inspired the makeup artist to pair a strong, smoky eye with a bold berry lip. “The eye was about a soft sort of drama,” he said. To create the look, he blended a creamy charcoal shadow all along the lids with his fingertips and finished with black mascara. “To be honest though, she has such gorgeous lashes I really only needed one coat,” he said.
