Bright Eyed Beauty



They say that the eyes are the mirror into the soul, so I think it is important to make them stand-out as much as possible.  A makeup tip that I learned while doing makeup in college is to apply a bit of white eye shadow or white eyeliner to your lids to really make your eyes pop in a soft and subtle way - no blue eye shadow needed here.  This look was seen on the runways at the Spring 2013 Just Cavalli show and I find it impossibly pretty. Here are some products to help achieve this look.  I hope that everyone has a fantastic weekend!

  2. I love the look of understated, glowy eyes (which sounds sort of Sci-fy when you put it that way haha). I have that Smashbox brightener and it works great!

  3. I always put a little highlighter in the corners of my eyes- totally brightens them up. I think I need to try that Smashbox one!

  14. Alison, some highlighter in the inner corner of your eye totally opens up your view and let your eye not appear so tired. I use this trick so often :-)

  18. I love this idea! I use that MUFE liner in champagne to line my eyes but white would really make them pop! I might have to pick it up!
