Get the Look: The Elegant Bronze Eye

After spotting these glamorous bronze eyes in Allure,
I decided to try the look out for myself.
I love this look for formal affairs like a black tie wedding.
When accompanied with a black dress, classic jewels &
some knock out heels, you might give the bride a run
for her money!
What I used, aka The Shopping List
{All from Bobbi Brown}:

1. Eye Shadow
-Base: Long Wear Cream Shadow in Beach Honey
-All over lid: Metallic Eye Shadow in Burnt Sugar
-Highlight under brow: Shimmer Was Eye Shadow in Champagne
-Dab of light in inner eye: Long Wear Cream Shadow in Bellini

2. Eyeliner {use Ultra Fine Eyeliner Brush}
-Long Wear Gel Eyeliner in Mahogany Ink
TIPS:
a. trick is to dab a small amount onto brush & wipe off most of product, use very little & run brush gently back and forth along your eye line.
b. To make eyes look wider, start from inner corners of eyes & bring line all the way out {even a little further than natural eye}. Line bottom, but do not line water line {inside the eye} if your eyes are not large.

3. Mascara
-I always use DIOR, DIORSHOW in Black {6M}

4. Concealer {Under Eye}
-Creamy Concealer in Warm Ivory
{Put concealer & powder underneath the eyes to prevent makeup from running down face}

I love the bronze eye! It looks gorgeous! Too bad I can't do that with my own eyes but it looks so beautiful on you!

Wow, you look great! I suck when it comes to makeup. Any time I attempt a smoky-eye look, I end up looking like I was in a bar fight. But I love yours! I need to try this again!

I can never get the smoky eye look to work, but you've succeeded marvelously!

And yes, I saw the new Woody Allen/Larry David film and enjoyed it - here's a quick review, if it helps: http://daily-decadence.blogspot.com/2009/06/whatever-works.html

WOW! You make this look so easy...I swear I'd look like I have two black, er, golden eyes!! It looks so fab on you. Maybe I'll have to give this a try, but I'm totally a dork when it comes to knowing how to do my makeup. I need lessons :)
