Mark’s Picks for August
“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!” |
“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!” |
“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!” |

HAIR HOW-TO
“I wanted to give Deborah Ann soft, romantic hair. I didn’t want perfect curls and I didn’t want frizz,” explains Townsend. He worked three-inch chunks between the tines of the Rsession Tools Naluwaver for funky, uneven texture. He then clipped the spiraled sections to Woll’s head while she was in makeup. “That gives the wave time to set,” he says. He brushed through the waves with a flat paddle brush and finished with a mist of sea spray. For a piecey, lived-in finish, he misted the hair with sea spray.
