Backstage with SheaMoisture Cosmetics for Korto Momolu
S/S 2015 New York Fashion Week
Inspiration: “Korto Momolu’s Spring/Summer 2015 collection exuded confidence with intensely pigmented pops of color and shimmering gold metallic fabric. To bring this same energy to the face, I chose to create a high-shine, bright pink lip that popped against the models fresh skin and sweet champagne smoky eye.”
