Kendall Jenner's Version of Prison Makeup Is Way Chicer Than Anyone Else's Version of Prison Makeup

published 30 June 15

Riccardo Tisci's inspiration for this weekend's Givenchy menswear collection (you read that right) was imprisonment, so logically, that would make Joan Smalls, Candice Swanepoel, and Kendall Jenner tough broads who write letters to their legislators and bake shivs/skeleton keys into their monthly Betty Crocker Rainbow Chip shipments.

But looking at their floating cat-eyes, which almost resemble something that could have come from the penitentiary's resident tattoo artist, you might conclude that willing to assist in a convict's escape (how timely (opens in new tab), BTW) and caring about your makeup don't have to be mutually exclusive. Behold the artistry on Ms. Naomi Campbell:

Lip, Hairstyle, Skin, Eyebrow, Fashion accessory, Eyelash, Body jewelry, Style, Eye shadow, Beauty,

From this vantage point, you can see how the black liner (opens in new tab) was drawn on: from the tear duct following the curve of the open eye, to the outer corner of the eyebrow, then back down to the lash line. A beauty mark that probably came out of a felt tip (opens in new tab), some highlighter applied liberally in a C shape to the top of the cheekbone, and nude lipstick make this a look that could totally inspire some Shawshank Redemption-style tunneling. Oh, and that hair? Glad to see it's still going strong (opens in new tab).
