Fashion Friday Spotlight: White Eyeshadow and Liners


The white eye shadow and eyeliner is a big deal for this spring/summer 2010, its shown up on many of the runways as a focal point in beauty trends. This makeup color as been used for century’s and it was one of Hollywood's trade secrets in creating drama to the eyes in the black-white silent era. It opens the eye if used as an eyeliner making eyes look bigger, it’s used in the inner corners to illuminate dewy sensual eyes, white eyeshadows can be placed on the middle part of the lid to bring attention to all other colors and the list goes on. Bolder placements and matte whites seems to be what the makeup artists want to show this season and it’s fabulous, everyone should have at least a white eyeliner in their makeup bag for spring and summer.
