Before After

to customers seeking makeup tips

Makeovers. Arc they really worth
it?
The 40 women who packed the
schedule of the Color Collage ’90
team at Dillard’s Gateway store Sept.
20 seemed to think so.
For the first time in Lincoln, a
group of regional makeup artists from
St. Louis and Kansas City, Mo., came
to Dillard’s for one day of color con
sultations.
The consultants presented Revlon’s
four prestigious makeup lines found
at the Revlon counter at Dillard’s.
Color was definitely the theme
conveyed to the Dillard’s customers.
Huge, primary-colored banners sur
rounded the counter and the artists
wore black satin jackets with bright
contrasted with makeup shades. This
means that if done correctly, women
do not have to rule out any colors in
their makeup.
Skin undertone was easily deter
mined because there are only two
possible hues -- cool (blue) and warm
(golden). Once the undertone was
determined, makeup shades that
complemented the skin could be
chosen.
Before applying any makeup
though, the artists suggested a com

could decide whether to use one en

the customer or to mix between lines

Each woman first was analyzed

lifestyles.
It’s always best to remember that
fashion magazines do not exist with
outadvertising. Naturally they’re going
to profile their advertisers’ designs,
regardless of whether it’s the best
thing to come down the runway.
Learning to think for oneself and
make the best possible choice out of
the available looks, regardless of
whether it agrees with this month’s
sermon from the fashion press, is the
difference between being a fashion
victim and achieving that higher plain
of fashion salvation.
