Trend Report: Metallic Eyeshadow

We couldn’t be more excited about the grown- up version of this glimmery trend, and here’s why: Not only are there shades that suit certain—and all—skin tones, but the overall look screams youthful and modern. Convinced? Good. That said, here’s how to make this bold statement work for you:

First, choose the formula based on how you want it to appear on your eyes. Want a sheerer, subdued glow? Use a cream-based formula, since they’re sheerer (usually) and can be smudged and blended into the skin. Powder shadows, on the other hand, tend to look more opaque and intense.

Now onto your personal color code…

If you’re fair: Opt for a silver or ice-y pink, since they tend to complement cooler skin tones. Case in point: Kristen Stewart really knows how to rock this look well.

If you skin is more of a medium shade: Turn to warmer hues like bronze and gold; this flashy shade is the perfect accessory to your olive-y complexion. See? We love Kim Kardashian in this smoky bronze tinge—she absolutely kills it.

And if you’re darker complected: Reach for any of the above shades—lucky you! Deeper skin tones can handle more intense colors, so go ahead and pile on that platinum—or gold…just like Beyonce!

A haute hue for everyone to share? Pewter. It’s very chameleon-like in that it blends in with its surroundings. So regardless of your skin tone, you can’t go wrong! Clearly Leighton Meester has been let in on this little beauty secret.

This morning I saw these images from a shoot I did of Kim Kardashian for London Sunday Times with photographer Terry Richardson and I LOVE them!

I had no idea what working with Kim would be like and I was actually nervous, but let me tell you, I fell in love with her within 60 seconds! Obviously she is drop-dead gorgeous and she was so incredible to work with; she is so smart and has such a great sense of humor and I love her style, plus I thought I had died and gone to hair heaven when she took out her bun and those locks fell all the way down her back! I did my usual trick of blow drying her hair with a medium round brush and then setting the hair in barrel curls with a 1 1/2 inch curling iron. I wish I could play with that mane of hair everyday!
