Fall ’09 blew in with intense passion. A virtual feast for the eyes as models rocked smokey shades ranging from teal to amethyst. Fingers were adorned with inky black nails tinted with everything from gold to pink and eyebrows arched with attitude. When the eyes weren’t smoking, they were barely there and the lips took center stage in shades of rich burgundy and jet black backed by flawless skin.
How do we translate fall trend into everyday wear? Consider which feature you want to emphasize then be bold. Think intensity as in a blended, bold smokey eye done in teal. Start by putting Elain’s Olive Green Sparkle Stick all over the eyelid up into the crease then pack on the dark blue from Electric Eyes Love Cleo duo fading the edges up and out with your blending brush – don’t forget to smudge some under your lower lashes. Line your eyes with Duet Eyeliner in Black using the pencil inside the inner rim of your eyes and along the upper lashline to increase the intensity. Finish off with two coats of 3-D Electric Lash on both upper and lower lashes. Voila!
If you really want to create the black lip but are afraid to go all the way… try this: Using Duet Eyeliner pencil in Black, gently line your lips and smudge the black inward leaving the center of your lip color showing then top it with Sexy Rouge Bijou Beam blending well.
As always, don’t bend yourself to trend, make trend work for you. Until next time…
