Frosted Eyes With Vincent Longo's Wet Diamond Eye Shadow
Beauty

Shout Out I Heart Makeup: Ice Ice Baby

I Heart Makeup is our source for all things Indian and beauty related in the community.
by coutorture I Heart Makeup is our source for all things Indian and beauty related in the community. Her coverage of India Fashion Week inspired us to explore it right here on Coutorture. Today she is showcasing a more unusual trend that we often think of as being reserved for very Blond women from the South. We are talking about frosty eyes! I Heart Makeup is seeing it on Bollywood stars.
This actually got us inspired because really who couldn't use a little bit of fun with some frosty looks? She suggests NARS Duo Eyeshadow Cream in Thebes but we think that Vincent Longo's Wet Diamond Eyeshadow is how we would play it. This creamy soft, full color eye powder with light reflective pearls is perfect for playing with the new frosty Bollywood starlet looks. Applied dry a sheer veil affect brightens the eyes if you want to go a little more subtle. When applied wet it turns into a shimmering cream that lasts for hours without creasing. We suggest White Sparkle or Jewel 69 for the ultimate fun and frosty looks. Its not just for Texans or Sorority girls anymore! And just because we are feeling funky on Monday we decided to share our favorite old school Bollywood routine Jaan Pehechaan Ho. Underneath the masks we are betting these lovely ladies have frosted eyes. Check Out More Shoutouts Here

The full blooms of Spring are right around the corner, so we couldn't help falling in love with Vincent Longo's Wet Diamond Eyeshadow in Verite. The Wet Diamond Eyeshadows are designed to range from a buildable sheer when applied dry to a dazzling rich hue when applied wet. Verite, a vibrant emerald, is the perfect choice for celebrating nature's return.


To use Wet Diamond Eyeshadow for maximum color payoff, simply dampen your eyeshadow brush and apply. If using another brand, be sure the shadow you're using is approved for wet use.

This just released, fabulous CHANEL LUMIÈRE D'ARTIFICES Metallic Eyeshadow, $75, is already flying off the shelves of Chanel boutiques and department stores nationwide!

There is quite a buzz about this gorgeous party girl metallic eye palette that contains three shades: cool silver, anthracite and warm bronze. Each shade can be worn separately, or blended together to create a stunning look.

The best part about this mini palette is it has been designed to look just like the sequins from a Chanel gown! If you want it, I recommend attempting now! This is a limited edition piece and will only be available while supplies last.

Eyeshadow 101 Cont'd: Brown Eyed Girls

Welcome back to the final installment of Eyeshadow 101: Brown Eyed Girls.
by

Welcome back to the final installment of Eyeshadow 101: Brown Eyed Girls. The first lesson was all about purple shadows for hazel/green eyes and the second lesson covered The Best Hues For Your Baby Blues. This final installment is about choosing the best shades of eyeshadow for our chocolicious brown eyed babes.

Let's do a quick recap (I know, it's old by now for you devoted readers) for those of you who are new readers:

The goal of wearing eye make-up is to enhance/bring attention to your eyes. I've taught you, that the rule of thumb is to wear the opposite color eye shadow of your eyes on the color wheel so that your eyes really stand out (or POP as they say in the make-up world). But, brown isn't all that clearly defined on the color wheel so I called in the help of some of my FABulous make up counter experts who say (and I agree), that the best eyeshadow shade for brown eyes are bronzes and greens.

This is super exciting, because as we are well aware by now, metallics are all the rage. Here are my pics for bronze and shimmery deep brown colors for brown eyes. And FYI - these colors can be simple to use alone. Just apply them to the lid and crease.

Lancome Color Design Eye Shadow in Click which you can buy here for $14.50

Pretty New Eyeshadow - Chanel Pink Lamé

I have seen this new eyeshadow from Chanel all over the place!
by

I have seen this new eyeshadow from Chanel all over the place! It's been in Lucky, Allure, various websites, etc. I have held off mentioning it because, frankly, the name threw me off a little bit. It's called Pink Lamé, the Lamé part reminds of Gold Lamé which reminds of something my grandmother might wear (no offense Grandma). But the more I read about it and the more pictures I see, I have been won over.

This highly original creation from Chanel is new for Fall. When swirled together, the gold, silver, and rose hues transform into a brightening shade of taupe. It's fairly pricey for eyeshadow ($40.00), but I guess you can think of it as actually getting 3 colors in one! Available here
