NARS Single Eye Shadow in Night Breed
I just discovered a gorgeous way to get smoky eyes with NARS Single Eye Shadow in Night Breed. The shade: black with silver glitter. The black pigment is pretty strong and you can skip the black eye liner on lower lids. I also use two other eye shadows: MAC Reflects Antique Gold which is part of the MAC Glitter Brilliants collection (your eyes will sparkle like diamonds) and stila kitten eye shadow for highlighting.
I then add MAC Rapidblack Penultimate Eye Liner (a liquid eye liner) and wing out my eyes for a bit of cat eyes. And finish with MAC Studio Fix Lash mascara. The result: dramatic, sexy eyes! To complete my look I add Chris & Tell lipstick by Lancôme which is THE prefect pink coral shade. I’m addicted to Chis & Tell! Every woman should have one pretty red lipstick and one pretty pink coral lipstick such as Lancome’s version.

MAC Light Affair Nail Lacquer
Nail Trends: the black nail polish has been popular for quite some time now and in my opinion will remain a classic. This spring however expect lighter colors like white or a pale grey taupe like MAC Light Affair ($12) from its latest MAC Love Lace collection to be the it nail polish shade. I absolutely love this color: it’s not too white, not too grey, and not too sheer. A nice break from black, be sure to attract compliments. Marta declares: MAC Light Affair nail polish is the new black!
MAC Love Lace Nail Polish in Light Affair: Revolutionary new high-gloss formula. Provides a no-streak/no-chip finish. Contains conditioners and UV protection. Rich color in a high-lacquer full-cream finish.
New Year’s Eve Beauty Tips: All About The Glitter
Party Makeup: Nothing says more party like a rock star than a little a bit of glitter. Sparkly eyes are sexy and elegant with an edge, all in one. My favorite is MAC Glitter in Gold ($19.50) which I apply on the corner of my eye lids after I’m done applying my normal eye shadow. I also dab just a little bit on top of my cheek bone line. Imagine a ‘C’ motion from the corner of eye lids to top of cheekbone. Expect lots of followers at the party and unusually adventurous New Year’s Eve!
MAC Glitter is part of the MAC Make-Up Art Cosmetics Collection and can be applied directly to the skin or combined with products to create high-level glitter and sparkle effects on all areas of the face, skin and hair. Shades include: Fuchsia, Reflects Rust, and Reflects Copper.
