Subtle and natural, minimal eye make up like Bobbi Brown Shimmer Wash Eye Shadow in Snow makes a soft, sheer statement, but this look can be taken to new heights with natural or faux lashes that stand out. To bring the drama, apply lashes, then curl with BillybBeauty Eyelash Curler at the base of the lash line.
Get Twiggy with it and make a dramatic statement with color and a fantasy of false eyelashes. Recreate this sixties iconic look by applying spidey lashes to the top and bottom. Try Shu Uemura Tokyo Lash Bar, which offers an array of falsies to choose from. Feeling artsy? Apply a thin layer of face paint using a shadow brush. Use Make Up For Ever 12 Grease Paint Case to make a bold statement.
Line lids with an inky black liquid liner like Lancôme Artliner Precision Point Eye-Liner at the base to conceal fake lashes. Use Talika Lash Extender for added volume and fill in sparse sections with Diorshow Mascara.
Clean, perfectly groomed brows are essential to update your look. Maintain golden arches by using a deluxe set of six tools by eyebrow guru Anastasia Beverly Hills All About Brows Kit to highlight your face. Get into lash therapy with flirty lashes by Revlon Fantasy Lengths Maximum Wear Glue-On Eyelashes. To draw magnetic, eye gazing attention, brush on some opaque black and white shadow, like Clé de Peau Beauté Eye Color Quad in Silent Movie Black & White, for pure mod-ification.
Curve ahead with lashes that set the tone for sultry, sexy style. Curl natural or fake lashes with Shu Uemura 24k Gold Eyelash Curler for a Hollywood royalty look. For wide eyes, use a white liner like Nars Eye Liner Pencil in Iceberg.
Fake slanted eyelashes can bring out your inner feline. Achieve this Eartha Kitt inspired style by applying Revlon Fantasy Lengths Maximum Wear Self Adhesive Eyelashes. To get a realistic look, trim lashes to fit. Then, line with MAC Liquid Eyeliner in Boot Black for a sexy, subdued look.
Play up those dreamy eyes by going for the gold with a dab of Urban Decay Heavy Metal Glitter Eye Gel in Arena. Bring on the bling by using flat-surfaced beads, found at arts and crafts stores to create this princess inspired look. Apply Duo Eyelash Adhesive in Dark-Tone to hold beads in place. And who could possibly resist the gold rush without sweeping those pretty peepers with shadow? Apply Clinique Colour Surge Super Shimmer Eye Shadow in Strike It Rich to get the golden touch.
How faux would you go to look fabulous? Big shapely brows along with falsies applied to the top and bottom lids are a must! To get all the fringe benefits with voluminous lashes, try MAC Lash in #36 for the upper lids and MAC Lash in #40 for lower lashes to create a dramatic sixties vibe. Coat lashes with a thickening eye plumper like Benefit BADgal Mascara in Rich Black to polish it off.
Diana Ross did it, Tina rocked it, and now you can go faux with lashes that are absolutely fabu-lash! To get these fringes, apply upper and lower lashes like Shu Uemura Partial Soft Cross and Smoky Layers lashes to amp up those lids.
For a wild night out, think outside the box by opting for colorful or rhinestone-sprinkled lashes. Recreate this look by applying falsies with a blue streak like Shu Uemura Premium Radiant Blue False Eyelashes.
Go eighties with chromatic make up and electrifying brows. To get this eye-catching look, use a brow gel like Shiseido The Make Up Translucent Eyebrow Shaper to add contour and definition. Get a smooth shape and darker hue with Laura Mercier Eyebrow Pencil in Brunette. Then, apply a thin line of Shiseido The Make Up Accentuating Cream Liner in Black and sweep lashes at the tips with Lancôme Cils Design Pro Mascara. Smudge lower lids with a gel eyeliner, try Stila Smudge Pots in Jet Black along the base to get a more dramatic smoky eye effect.
