The makeup look at DKNY at spring-summer 2014 New York Fashion Week was all bright and fresh-faced and totally lovely, and I got the makeup artist behind it, Charlotte Willer, to spill a couple of secrets as to how she created it. The first secret is that the gorgeous flush on the cheeks came not from a blush but a lipliner—Maybelline ColorSensational Lip Pencil in Red #50 to be exact. It's unexpected, but she says it melts into the cheeks so well that you end up with the most natural cheek stain ever. The second secret is that the lip color came courtesy of two lipsticks blended together, applied, and then blotted. The dynamic duo: Color Sensational Vivids Lipstick in Electric Orange and Neon Red. So that's what you see here: Lipliner as blush and custom-blended lipstick, both of which are both copy-able and affordable. Kind of awesome, don't you think? Photos: Getty Images
