There is a reason why makeup artist Pat McGrath is the “Queen Mother” of makeup. When it comes to makeup for the fashion week runways of the world, she takes the cake. Her runway makeup looks are legendary, and this year was no different. She won couture fashion week in Paris this week after creating stunning looks for the Valentino Spring 2019 Couture show that included feather lashes and floral face paint.

The makeup looks that Pat created for the show were the perfect match for the floral-themed runway looks. She glued delicate feathers to the top and bottom lashes of the models and when they blinked, it created a moment for sure. The feathers were custom-made in colors that matched the gorgeous gowns including lilac, black, blue and beige.

I have so many great things to say about the Valentino Spring 2019 Couture Collection, that I am doing a separate post about it, but I had to tip my hat off to Pat McGrath first. All hail to the Queen Mother of Makeup! She knocked it out of the park with this one.
