The different coral shades in the Bobbi Brown Havana Brights spring 2017 make-up collection are inspired by the spirit of Havana, the energy of Cuba’s capital giving life to the colours chosen.

Each option is easily translatable from day looks to night ones thanks to the subtle and natural sultry shades.

London College of Fashion lecturers have created a Women’s Beauty Co-operative make-up workshop that is to be delivered by make-up artist Lucy Wearing for the women’s cooperative in Za’atari Refugee Camp in Jordan this May 2017. Za’atari is home to around 80,000 refugees. Families displaced, by no fault of their own, are set to be in the camp for a minimum of 13 years – the average resettlement time is 26 years. The women’s groups within the camp are a place of comfort, solace and support and research has shown that a great deal of healing occurs in the women’s co-operative. In November 2016, Liz McLafferty, Helen Storey and Deepa Patel from the London College of Fashion visited Za’atari Refugee Camp. The Za’atari women’s groups identified ‘beauty’, as a theme they wished to explore, as a means to make new friendships and develop skills and confidence whilst Za’atari is their home away from home. To expediate this, a London College of Fashion short course has been designed specifically for the women of Za’atari. Whilst at the camp, the women discussed their aspirations and wishes for their future. The areas that the women expressed as important to them are: Make up Skills and techniques, Cosmetic Make up Skills and techniques, Hairstyling skills and techniques and Hair colouring skills and technique. These courses have been designed as a great way to give women the skill set to start their own business within the camp, that they can take this back with them when they can eventually return home to Syria. The UNHCR also conveyed an interest in being able to identify the ‘talented and gifted’ amongst the women – those that may in the future, mentor others and be female role models in their own right. The organisers are looking for support in terms of donations of any make-up products, materials, brushes, sponges and tools that can be given to the women. LCF are planning an event on 14th March where attendees can find out more about the project and the importance of the Women’s Beauty Co-op. The event is now on line Tickets are free and open to all.
