EXPLOSIVE SHOOT WITH CHANEL, JEAN-CLAUDE BIGUINE

When a much-awaited collaboration to do an editorial shoot for my luxury portal 'Explosive Fashion', with Chanel's International Makeup Artist Dominique Papadopoulos recreating beauty trends with Chanel Summer 2016 Makeup Collection Dans La Lumiere De L'ete and Jean-Claude Biguine styling hot hairstyles, materialized I was thrilled beyond belief! Reminiscing back to the day of the shoot, we commandeered it in Mumbai from morning till sundown where Toabh supermodel Nastasia posed for sensual, stunning summer hair and make-up trends shot by Vijit Gupta — styled by Nisha Jhangiani. It was all about luminous skin, strong brows, pop of colour on eyelids or lip, playful nails, natural hair enhanced lightly with volume and texture — to complement bold bright ensembles and accessories!! Here, I have the pleasure of presenting SUPER EXCLUSIVE photographs that depict the hottest International beauty trends that complement Indian skin tone.
