Candice Swanepoel's Model Off Duty Look When we caught up with Victoria's Secret Angel Candice Swanepoel earlier this week, it became abundantly clear that while we may not have her long legs (sigh), we can try out her casual hair and makeup look.
We chatted about the holidays (Swanepoel is gifting the new Scandalous collection to her family when she heads home to South Africa) and the upcoming VS Fashion Show in London, which airs on December 9. "I'm living in sweatpants and sneakers right now because I'm always at the gym or traveling," Swanepoel says. Then we headed straight over to hairstylist Harry Josh and makeup artist Hung Vanngo so we could copy Swanepoel's gorgeous beauty look for ourselves.
"Candice was in the mood to do something really natural and tousled," Josh says of the supermodel's hair. To get the perfect undone waves, he says to focus on creating volume by applying mousse through wet hair and blowing out with a round brush. For added volume at the roots, Josh recommends wrapping the front sections in Velcro rollers while the hair cools. Then, use a 1-inch curling iron and "haphazardly take 1-inch sections around the head … and then shake [the curls] out for a beachy texture."
For her model off duty makeup, Vanngo says it was all about simplicity by concentrating on "keeping the skin very fresh." For the eyes he used a brown shadow (try CK One Powder Eye Shadow in Evolved on the lid and Infinite on the inner corners), liner and mascara (Swanepoel swears by Max Factor). To finish the look, Vanngo says to add a light pink cream blush on the cheeks and a lip balm.
