Maria Comparetto worked on the make-up and Anna Cofone did hair on this shoot for the Guardian (Saturday 9th July edition) with Priscilla Kwateng styling and Jon Gorrigan shooting.
As the shoot was ‘After Dark, they didn’t begin until 6pm one (luckily warm) evening last month and the shoot involved going round London to major landmarks.
Anna said that for the hair “We took inspiration from the 70’s… sexy teased curls but with a heavy shape around the face”. LOVE it.
Maria said “Anna’s great job on the hair inspired me to do something very late “70s”/early “80s”with the makeup”. Maria created “Uber Glossy Lips” (using Chanel Levres Scintillantes in ‘80 Etole’ followed by Chanel Glossimer in ‘Pink Peony’ on top) with a flushed cheek and lashings of Mascara top and bottom to make a “very sexy yet fresh makeup”.
Maria added “Shooting with Priscilla is always a treat and working with Jon Gorrigan for the first time was a bonus (especially sharing a mutual love of northern soul!).
“Bikinis’s on Westminster Bridge!!!!!?” The team are looking forward to the next assignment. Watch this space!
