Stylista x Pantene: Natural Luminosity

Awww, all good things must come to an end. We’ve arrived at out fourth and final look for the Stylista x Pantene series. (Check out my 1st, 2nd and 3rd look for Stylista x Pantene.) This time, the A/W 2012 runway hair trend Pantene hair expert, Alex Carbonell, is tasked to interpret is called natural luminosity.

Natural luminosity is a hair look that is inspired by nature and influenced by some of the textural finishes of the collection, in particular the grain of wood. Alex chose to interpret this hair look into an interesting and unique up-do.

Step 1: Tie your hair up into a ponytail.

Step 2: Gather a small section of your hair and twist it. After twisting, position the end towards your scalp and pin it in place.

Step 3: This is where you get creative. Keep doing step #2 to the rest of your hair. Twist and position them on your scalp however way you want them.

Step 4: Leave 2 slightly bigger portions of your hair. Twist them as well.

Step 5: Twist and pin them like croissants! (They really resemble croissants or maybe I’m just really hungry right now haha!)

There you have it! As you can see, this hair style requires natural volume while maintaining shine and manageability. To achieve this, you need a light conditioner and shampoo like Pantene’s Nature Care Series. I love love love this variant. It’s inspired by nature so you’re sure the ingredients are topnotch!

And now, here’s my outfit. The key words I remembered while styling this look were nature and texture. I wore lace and dark gold sequins underneath my lace tunic to give a different type of play on texture. The outcome is as unique as my hair! :) The overall look is unintentionally a little old Hollywood too.

    One of my favorite looks from you. :) I’ve been following you on Instagram, but I think I like reading your blog even better! <3 This look of yours saved me because I needed inspiration to create a look for a wedding I was supposed to attend but didn't have the budget to buy a new dress. Luckily, this inspired me to do something different with my old clothes and it turned out so well. Thank you! :) Continue to inspire us! :D

      For this one, it’s the make-up artist’s. :) Usually, for everyday, I just use Etude House’ BB cream. For events, I use Make-up Forever’s matte foundation.

      Thanks Yani! I’m sure you can do it too! :) There are so many ways though! I’d probably wear a dressy sheer blouse with it :)

    OMG I was just looking at that gold skirt from H&M a while ago! but hesitant to buy it. I don’t know how to pair the right heels or clothes with it. just get too scared to try and put an outfit together because I don’t want to look like an idiot. :) now makes me wanna go back & get my hands on that sparkly thing! You are totally pulling this off!
