How To Look Like A Victoria’s Secret Model For $415: Makeup And Hair Tools Used Backstage Before The VS Fashion Show [PHOTOS]
Being a VS Angel is much more than a sexy strut and looking good in lingerie; the oozing sex appeal of Victoria’s Secret supermodels is also a byproduct of sultry makeup.
IBTimes went backstage last month to watch the models get ready before the 2013 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, which will air Tuesday night on CBS, catching the buffing, bronzing and blow-drying in all of its glory.
But the models, like Candince Swanepoel, Lindsay Ellingson and Karlie Kloss, don’t exactly apply their makeup or curl their hair alone; it takes a whole team of pros to make it happen. For the 40 models walking in the show, 26 makeup artists, 22 hair stylists and eight manicurists helped to achieve the look. And while you may not have a team of 56 professionals waiting at your home to prim and prime you, you can easily snag the 11 beauty and hair products at any Victoria’s Secret store.
So, want to look like a Victoria's Secret model? Here's the backstage beauty secrets directly from the pros who make the VS Angels sparkle––and the $415 worth of products it takes to do it.
