Carmindy’s tips to color your eyes beautiful

Carmindy on TLC’s “What Not to Wear” jpgWith each new season comes new makeup and beauty ideas. But you knew that, didn’t you?

You’ve probably also heard that purple reigns this fall. In clothes and at the cosmetics counter.  With color in mind, here’s some advice from Carmindy, the makeup artist on TLC’s “What Not to Wear.”  Last spring, Carmindy teamed with Sally Hansen for Sally Hansen’s Natural Beauty Inspired by Carmindy beauty products, available at CVS and Ulta.

“Now those of you who usually pass on color no matter what the trend each season, now is the time to try some fail-proof gorgeous looks,” she says in her newsletter. “Purple liquid liner in shades of amethyst, plum or eggplant are super chic right now.”

 Simply line your upper lash line  and follow with black mascara. Skipping any other shadows and allowing this purple liner to be the main focus will keep your eyes looking sophisticated, not silly. Dust tawny blush on the apples of your cheeks and a nude shimmering lip color for a universally flattering new look that is totally “of the moment,” she says.

 If you want to try the green trend, she suggests choosing an earthy khaki green and blend it across the lid from the lash line to the crease. Apply a champagne highlight under the brow and on the inner corners of the eyes and finish with black mascara. Skipping eyeliner for this look will keep it fresh. Again, pair this with tawny cheeks and a neutral mouth.
