Gisele's Honey Blonde -TIGI

Where were you in 2012? Because Gisele Bündchen was the face of Versace…and Givenchy and Salvatore Ferragama. She’d replaced the flawless Kate Moss as the face of David Yurman. And the beautiful Brazilian was even built a sculpture in her image by Casa Cor!

By the end of the year, she’d appeared on a total of 120 Vogue covers.

Yeah, 2012 was the year off Bündchen.

Who could forget those sweet honey beach waves? We all wanted them. We probably still do. The languid, soft style of a true beauty—effortless and soft. Still craving the look? Of course you are. Here’s how you get it from TIGI® Learning Lab Technical Director, Robert Banyaga!
