When it comes to eye shadows, I’ve typically gravitated toward smoldering, smoky, seductress-worthy gray, charcoal, and gunmetal hues or, on the opposite end of the spectrum, toward really bold, bright, adventurous hues: richly pigmented jewel tones, galactic-feeling metallics, aquatic blues and teals, and lush, forest-worthy greens, and so forth.
A bold lip is always in vogue — just think of the number of red pouts on the Golden Globes red carpet last weekend or check out the last three Rihanna album covers.
You may not be able to snatch up Cate Blanchett’s Armani Couture dress, Kerry Washington’s Fred Leighton jewels, or even Emma Thompson’s Louboutin heels, but one of the wonderful things about the realm of beauty is that, with the right tools and techniques, you can experiment with any red carpet hair or makeup look.
The older I get, the more I notice that concealer — once an optional step in my makeup application process — is now a necessity.
Did it just dawn on you that Christmas is merely five days away?
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas — and, for those of us on the East Coast, it’s looking like a white Christmas at that!

We’re easing on down the gift giving road!
