I don’t know about you, but I LOVE makeup. When I was younger, I used to put on makeup on Saturday mornings to practice so I’d look wonderful for all those middle school boys. One makeup trend I’ve noticed this summer is bright eyes. At least, that’s what I’m calling it.

Stars are popping up everywhere with brightly colored eye makeup. My favorite shade? Red. Gone are the days where we worry about red eyeshadow making our eyes look bloodshot or tired. This look is totally eye-catching if you do it right. Pair it with a bright red dress and make sure you’re at the right a event.

If I had to guess, I’d say the trick here is using a darker red eyeliner so the eye looks almost smokey.

This is the best photo I could find of J.Lo. But if you all watch the show, then I hope you caught the bright-eyes look. It seems that J.Lo used a brighter red eyeshadow so her eyes didn’t have the smokey look like Taylor’s. Still lovely!

Things to Celebrate

It’s Patti LaBelle and Priscilla Preseley’s  birthdays. Sounds like we have a good soundtrack for the day.

It’s National Escargot Day. I don’t know if I want to participate, but let me know if you do.

My best friend from elementary school is also celebrating her birthday today. Shout out to Lizzie Bee a.k.a. Liz Cooney. The best friend a girl could ask for when growing up.

It may be the best day. It’s Tiara Day. You can wear a bejeweled crown and nobody can tell you not to. If only I had one in my closet.
