Eye Makeup Magic: 2012 Emmy's

The Emmy's were last night and while I don't generally watch award shows anymore I do love me some red carpet action.
Last night did not disappoint.
It seemed everyone brought their "A game" and rocked the carpet in their own way.
I know many blogs will be talking fashion and shoes but can we just talk about the makeup for a minute?
I mean dang!
These ladies killed it.
Here are some of my favorites:

Kerry Washington: Nearly Nude
This photo doesn't do her justice (in my opinion) live on the red carpet she was simply glowing.
She just killed it for me.
I loved her strong simple eye and muted lip.
She amped up the glam factor by adding lashes but kept the rest subtle and stunning.
It was understated elegance at it's best.

Lena Dunham - smokey eye smize
I didn't love the dress but her smoked out smize was A-MAZING. If you looked closely you could see it was a deep blue/black and with her light brown eyes it was just the right touch.

Ginnifer Goodwin: Sultry Stare
The dark eyeliner + thick lashes and totally clean/fresh face was a huge hit for me.
I am a huge fan of this type of look

Claire Danes: Lined to Perfection
Clearly there is a trend here with my love of the dark eye, barely there lip and flushed cheeks.
I thought this mama-to-be looked radiant in the color of the night and again with the dark emphasized eyes.

Kelly Osbourne: Vampy Lip

She got it exactly right. Rocking the season's hottest bordeaux lip color the reality star vamped up the carpet in various shades of purple from her head to her orchid eye liner.


Were there any Emmy looks that rocked your world?

Trending NOW: the 3 colors you NEED in your bathroom

From lips, to eyes, to nails - this seasons hottest new looks call for old staples to be re-mixed into bold and daring new shades that compliment the cooler weather magnificently.
Plums are rich and powerful. Neutrals are made new with updated barely there but highlin impact thanks to rich textures and colors and greens look fresh with a little shimmer and sheen.  My top ways to wear the trends? Keep it simple.
The Lips : Wines, Plums and maroons make a bold statement and instantly begs for attention. A sophisticated alternative to the classic red, it has refined edge that adds instant glam. To apply - use a lip brush for a more precise finish then blot to avoid bleeding.


The Eyes: Swipe on a bit of mossy eyeliner and all your friends will be "green" with envy as you rock the latest trend and make your eyes POP in the process. For most- green eye shadow is like red lipstick. It's all about finding the shade that's right for you! For lighter or fairer skin tones - try an olive or seafoam, women with medium to darker skin can wear brighter shades such as emerald
Nails: By adding a hint of purple to last season's all-the-rage beige you've got a HOT new hybrid nail color. Suitable for both a night out and working the day away.  A neutral compliment to all the deep autumn colors we'll all be wearing for the next few months.
Run to your nearest Sephora, Ulta or Planet Beauty and pick up these must-have items for this Fall season!!! 
And when you do - send me your pics that showcase how YOU wear the fall trends!!
