Launched in 1966, Mary's colourful, revolutionary cosmetics defied contemporary makeup conventions. Mary proposed the idea of “no-rules makeup": makeup to be enjoyed based on one's favourite colours and mood at the time. Mary's colours have a mysterious ability to complement any outfit, in any era.
“The Black Daisy” is the brand symbol of Mary Quant. A black flower, unique in the world, impossible to produce through the power of science; it is the symbol of the freedom fashion designer Mary Quant gave to women, and of the Mary Quant brand which continues to defy convention to create new forms of beauty.
Step by step Make Up by Ms. Takaki:
 |
Step 1: Prepare a clean face and pamper it with a good moisturizer or/and emulsion then a make up base. This will keep your face clear, hydrated and makes it soft. Mary Quant has two make up base:
- Oil Zap is an oil control face makeup base provide a dry, matte finish as if you have applied powder. It prevents makeup from coming off by controlling shine due to the excess sebum. It also renders skin with a fine texture to cover up pores. Use this on the T zone area.
- Moisture Zap is a moisture infusion makeup base that has high moisturizing properties like a beauty serum, it will helps makeup last longer while enhances blood circulation to maintain a brighter skin. Use this on other area of the face, do not overlap it with the Oil Zap.
