Learn how to create sexy, smokey eyes—without putting suspicious ingredients on your sensitive lids.
I love New Year’s Eve because I love old-school glam. A velvet cape inherited from grandma? Perfect! A silver lamé frock from a thrift store? Uh-huh! Rhinestone earrings? Feather boa? Sequined evening bag? Yes, yes, yes! Everything is permitted on New Year’s, as long as it’s glittery and elegant and fun.
As much as I adore dressing up, I have a dilemma: I want to wear shimmery, glamorous make-up—but I don’t want to put questionable ingredients on my face, especially not on the sensitive tissue around my eyes.
This year, I’ve resolved to conquer my New Year’s Eve quandary with the help of make-up artist Nichole Servin. In her latest video for Whole Foods Market®, Nicole demonstrates how to create a dramatic smokey eye with richly pigmented, paraben-free makeup from Mineral Fusion.
Don’t miss the part where Nicole shows how to remove stray mascara with a simple cotton swab. Priceless!
