I don’t think I can resist this eyeshadow palette

The last thing I need is another eyeshadow palette, but sometimes I just can’t help myself. I try my best not to double up on color collections I may already have, but I’m always drawn to a palette that has a unique spin. Take Kevyn Aucoin Beauty’s new Emphasize Eye Design Palettes for example. Featuring five coordinating powder shadows plus a new water-resistant Cream Foil Eyeshadow (that has a special applicator for precise placement), they make it easy to create an alluring eye for any occasion. Simply apply from lightest to darkest and use the Cream Foil Eyeshadow as a finishing touch in the inner corners of the eyes (or anywhere else you want extra sparkle). This short tutorial shows you exactly what to do, and you’ll quickly see how uncomplicated it is.

While we’re on the subject, I recently watched Larger Than Life: The Kevyn Aucoin Story and it might be one of the best documentaries I’ve ever seen. With rare footage of Aucoin’s youth, a behind-the-scenes look at his meteoric rise and interviews with too many famous fashion faces to count (including The Supers!), it definitely says something that my husband got sucked into it and watched through the end. (He had no idea makeup artists could be such a big deal!) Definitely add it to your watchlist if you haven’t seen it already…
