Get Great Eye Makeup with Style Eyes by Taylor Shang-Babaian

style_eyes_book-taylor-chang-babaian.jpgUnless I choose to go for a bold lip color, the only thing that ever really changes with my beauty routine, even for a night out, is my eye makeup. I tend to keep the majority of my makeup simple, but when it comes to my eyes, it’s always fun to try something new. That’s why I was so excited when Eva handed me a copy of Style Eyes by Taylor Chang-Babaian. This book gives readers the tips, tricks, and tools they need to create beautiful eyes and brows. Because I’m not the most creative person when it comes to crafting new eye-makeup looks for myself, this book was a great resource for creating cool new looks inspired by eye color, eye size and shape, age, trends, color palettes, and even art. Here’s one from the book–made just for teens–that you can try out this fall: 

Apply warm beige foundation to the eyelid. (You can also use concealer  
or primer.)
Apply warm-beige concealer to the inner corner of the eye.
Set the foundation and concealer with translucent loose powder.
Apply pink eye shadow to the entire base of the lid.
Layer black eye shadow along the upper lashline, slightly blending into  
the pink eye shadow.
Apply white shimmering eye shadow along the lower lashline.
Apply black cream eyeliner along the upper lashline and wing out  
corners slightly.
Curl lashes and apply volumizing mascara to the upper eyelashes.
Apply dark brown eyebrow pencil.
Apply clear brow gel.

Style Eyes is on sale now for $18. Purchase it online at Penguin.com or on Amazon.com.

COMFORT ZONE: My style is for the most part always comfy, but
sometimes I go vintage, bohemian or even a little grungy.

collections always deliver.
