FOR AN EYE POPPING NATURAL LOOK in 3 simple steps.

I'm always seeking a look that brings out my finest features and yet looks like a happy accident. "Oh these eyes? I was born that way." So this week is the eyes my pretties!

Some people don't believe how old I really am and I have a secret. A secret going back 25 years. Are you ready for it? I very, very rarely use eye liner. A MAC make-up artist told me a quarter of a century ago to imagine spending 25 years of my life PULLING on the skin around my eye. She told me eventually lining my eyes with a pencil would take it's toll and wrinkles would appear. So I stopped immediately (of course I was four years old at the time) and for 25 years I've used eye shadow with a very specific make up brush to line my eyes with powder. No pulling the skin. Just gentle, specific strokes to create the same look of an eye pencil. And whether it be genetics or not, no eye wrinkles people! Now on to making you beautiful!

I'M SO JAZZED to share four of my favorite items to create one eye popping, natural look...

Four simple products. Three

simple steps.

1. Starting with one of my favorite make-up lines Benefit is F.Y....Eye! The ultimate eye shadow base in what I would say is coral color but it doesn't overwhelm and blends precise. It brightens & evens the lid while permitting your powder a long lasting stay. (Personally? I use it just as a brightener, the lasting power is a bonus!). Available at Sephora or any other stores carrying the Benefit Make up brand.

2. a) My take anywhere Double-ended Smokey Eye Brush by Sephora is "equipped with a slanted eyeliner brush and a smudge dome...line the length of your upper and lower lashes with the slant end

and use the smudge end to draw darker shadow to the exterior of the eye..."(I'm just helping you keep your beautiful eyes wrinkle free for a few more years my lassies.)

b) I SWEAR by this color people. It's fantastic for blue, green,

brown eyes making them POP without drawing attention to the fact you have make-up on. A color so coveted it sells out at MAC counters. Counter girls know this is one fantastic color and they express their frustration as they rarely have it in stock and it is a limited edition to boot!? Why hold out on us girls just wanting fantastic eyes!? MAC's Mulled Cider shadow in a mysterious color...is it brown? No. Bronze? No. Pewter? No. Purple? No. Eggplant? Wait, that's a vegetable. But you catch my drift. This fantastic color is great as a liner, lid contour or smokey look. I've found no color that makes my eyes turn blue or green or...(by then I just hope the person deciding is lost in my gaze). I can only tell you to go to a MAC counter near you with the password: HOTTEST EYES EVER and see if they respond. Or, you can also try asking for Mulled Cider. If they don't have it anymore, you may want to drink some.

3. Lashes open Wide!

I am forever seeking the perfect mascara. I have yet to find one that works as well as heading to the salon and getting a blue/black lash tint. But then came along CHANEL's Inimitable Multi-Dimensional Mascara. It's brush provides a fantastically detailed combing of each lash with a dark pigment. It catches each lash long or short and adds a gentle curl. It produces natural looking lashes regardless of how many strokes of the brush you want you use. A wonderful day-time mascara for a perfectly natural..."oh these eyes? I woke up looking this eye-poppingly refreshed, really"- Look. Yes, it's expensive. But I must tell you, CHANEL know's their products and they've figured this one out. For precise volume, length, curl and cover - my new favorite mascara.
