How to Wear Glittery Liner in a Classy Way
Who ever said that glittery makeup is only reserved for the middle-school crowd? At last night's New York premiere of Amelia, it definitely wasn't Hilary Swank. Wearing an unexpected silvery-blue shadow on both her upper and lower lash lines to coordinate with her steely blue-green gown, Hilary proves that sparkling, shimmery finishes don't have to look cheesy.
Go Beyond Brown and Black With a Colorful Eyeliner
It seems to me that the majority of makeup wearers opt for the fairly standard hues of brown or black. Pretty, but a bit boring, nonetheless. For New Year's Eve I went bold with a bright blue liner, and this got me to thinking about the rainbow of colors available beyond traditional shades.
How-To: Do It Like Loren
...and Padma and even Anne. In the most recent issue of Allure, I read a cool tip that Top Chef's Padma Lakshmi follows to create Sophia Loren-esque eyes. First, she starts by applying some black eyeliner to her lash line, then adds a blue liner on top.

Beautiful Blue Eyeliner!
Blue eyeliner is still going strong this summer. This is one 80's look that I never thought would come back. According to Molly Roncal, a NYC Make Up artist, this trend isn't going anywhere either.

Runway Makeup Shades You Can Wear Now
So many of the shades on the runway are hard or impossible to track down — the perfect blue nail polish from Vena Cava, the gorgeous turquoise eyeliner at Tibi, etc. Luckily, though, some designers have realized just how much demand there is for their colors, and are coming out with runway makeup collections. A lot of stuff is still unavailable, but I've put together some of the prettiest samples from the collections that are coming out now.
Doing Drugstore: L'Oréal HIP Color Rich Cream Eyeliner
I'm a big fan of Bobbi Brown's great Long Wear Gel Eyeliner ($21) for waterlining and intense pigment, but Bobbi doesn't make bright teal, which is one of my favorite shades to wear, so I turned to HIP Color Rich Cream Eyeliner ($12). I like it because it sticks nicely on the rims of my eyes, and therefore I don't have any trouble with bright blue smudges. If you're a fan of waterlining, I highly recommend this one.
Tonight's Eyeliner Will Be Bright and Blue
If you can't wear bright colors on New Year's Eve, when can you wear them? I'm not one to go all out with a bold hue, but a hint of tint? No problem.
Love It or Hate It? Kate Hudson's Black and Blue Eyes
Kate Hudson stepped out for the windy Los Angeles premiere of her new movie Fool's Gold co-starring hunky, father-to-be Matthew McConaughey last night. I didn't think her blue dress was very figure flattering, but I loved the way she matched her makeup to her outfit. Do you think Kate's black and blue eye liner is foolish or fabulous?
