Ashlee Simpsons New Look

Ashlee Simpson Presents: An Unexpected Spot to Put Highlighter That Makes Your Eyes Look Bigger.

We often tell you to put highlighter on your brow bone or across your cheeks, but Ashlee Simpson found a spot that opens up your eyes that I havent really thought of before: The outer corner.

Along with down her nose and perhaps on her cheekbones, shes got something light and shimmery right at the outer edge of her eye. The point: To "highlight" as in catch the light there (making her eyes look wider) as well as "highlight" as in draw attention to.

Any of you ever use highlighter or luminizer in this spot? Are you going to try it now?

Lovely Eye Idea Reese Witherspoons Gray on Top Bronze on Bottom Makeup Look

Its been a big day for not matching your eye makeup colors on top and bottom. We saw it this morning on Vanessa Romero. And now heres another mismatched eye look on Reese Witherspoon
This is the style she wore to the Avon Foundation For Women Gala:


Her top lids are covered with a soft gray while her bottom lashline is edged with a soft pinky bronze. The gray is kind of a no-brainer, but the shade down below is unexpected and risky--this is the kind of thing that can make dark undereye circles into a big dark, sad-eyed disaster. But I think Reese is actually pulling it off well here, thanks to either good genetics or good concealer. Plus, its stepping out of the box for her, which I appreciate. I wonder how it feels for her to be metaphorically boxless right now. Good, I hope. Id like to see more of it.
What do you think, gang? Are you into this look, too?
