A little color can never hurt the eyes, or can it? Blue is having a major moment in makeup right now. This runway trend caught my eye (literally) a few seasons ago, but I was a little too shy to try!BEWARE: I think there's a fine line between looking edgy and plain CRAZY with color on your eyes! I wanted to look edgy but still clean at the same time. I enlisted the help of my makeup artist bestie Lyndsay Zavitz to help me break down this look we created together.
Lyndsay says the most important thing to note when wearing color on the eyes is to make sure you start with a creamy base and press a shadow over it to lock it in place. She also insists keeping the eye as clean as possible - sometimes this means skipping out on the fake lashes because they can take away from the color on the eyes.
