Sultry Smoky Eyes for The Holidays




Smudged liner and a hint of metallic shimmer eye shadow define this season's smoky eye. For a modern, glam look, Beth suggests lining your top and bottom lash lines with a black pencil and smudging with a brush or Q-tip to get this look. Try Prescriptives Soft Lining Pencil in Black. ($17.50, prescriptives.com) Then finish by sweeping a charcoal powder shadow across the lower lid and above the crease, almost to the brow bone as seen here. Try Bellatrix Eye Dust. ($16,Bettesboutique.com) Add a light dusting of loose shimmer powder over the entire eye, making sure to sweep under the lash line too. Try Pretty All Over Shimmer.

Give Me A Cat Eye Like Kate Bosworth



Cat eyes have become quite a popular trend in beauty and many Hollywood celebs have been seen sporting some very sexy cat eyes. Kate Bosworth and Naomi Watts each look beautiful in their cat eyes. Naomi has chosen a more precise cat eye very similar to what was seen at Prada for fall, while Kate has chosen more of a smoky cat eye as seen at Miss Sixty.

To get this look try The Get in Line Stencil Kit from Beth Bender Beauty, $36 at bettesboutique.com The kit comes with two stencils. One for a smoky eye, and one for a cat eye. The cat eye stencil gives you the option of as thin or as thick of a cat eye you desire.

Finish this look with a pop of color on your cheeks (try Baby Blush from beth bender beauty) and a lip color in a red or rose hue. Try Stick Gloss from Laura Mercier in Courtisane (mauve-rose), $20 at sephora.com or Reddy Freddy Glam Gloss (candy apple red), $16 at bettesboutique.com.

Give Me A Smoky Eye Like Hilary Duff




Smoky eyes don't always have to be done in darker colors. Sometimes using a bronze tone or a warm gold tone can make the eyes look even more sultry then you think. As seen here on Mandy Moore and Hilary Duff.

To get this look try using an eyeshadow in a bronze or warm gold tone and put a touch of darker liner just on the lash line. Try Lola Lola from Nars, $21 a sephora.com or Ambra Eye Dust, $16 at bettesboutique.com. To get the perfect smoky eyes without all of the steps, try the Get in Line Stencil Kit, $36 at bettesboutique.com. Each kit comes with everything you need. Also available in a travel pouch for $16. Use a Gel Eyeliner for lining close to the lashes. It's water resistant and stays put for hours. Try Onyx Gel liner, $18 at bettesboutique.com

Perfect Cat Eyes with The Get in Line Kit

How to get your cat eyes purrfect..

The Get in Line stencil kit is the quickest way to get sexy cat eyes in minutes. The stencils are made from a soft PVC plastic to fit any eye shape. Cat eyes have been seen everywhere from the runway, to fashion ads, to the long list of celebrities like Scarlett Johansson, Angelina Jolie, Eva Mendes and Rhianna, who can usually be seen sporting one.

To use the stencils and create a sexy cat eye on yourself simply place the stencil labeled cat eye over a closed eye, making sure your lashes are poking through the opening, as seen in the picture below.

Place the stencil closer to your lash line for a thinner cat eye and slightly higher for a thicker more dramatic cat eye as seen here on the model. Choose either the full or tapered end of the brush. We like to use the fuller end of the brush slightly dampened, but either side works well. Choose a color and sweep the brush slowly across the lid making sure to brush color up into the point of the cat eye for a more precise look.

Remove stencil, wipe away any eyeshadow and repeat the same steps on the other eye. Once you have both eyes done you can add more eyeshadow if you desire a more intense eye. Use the tapered end of brush slightly damp to go over the cat eye.


How To Get a Smoky Eye With Get In Line

Every once in awhile a customer will have a question on how to do a smoky eye using the Get in Line Stencil Kit. For those who don’t know about the kit and how quickly you can create these looks, we decided to show you. The stencils are made from a soft PVC plastic so they are easy to fit on any eye shape.
As seen on the model above place the stencil labeled smoky eye over your closed eye. Holding stencil in place, use the full end of the brush and dip into one of the darker shadows from the kit ( you can mix together too). Sweep color over the entire eyelid opening. You can repeat again for a darker look. Remove the stencil, wipe brush, and apply the base color from your brow bone to the crease of your eye, making sure to blend both colors in the crease.

Repeat the same as above on the other eye by simply flipping the stencil over. For a more dramatic look, using the same stencil labeled bottom liner, place underneath your eye and sweep color along line. To soften the line you can smudge with your brush for a Smoky eye runway look.

This is how easy it really is to do a smoky eye. The Get in Line Stencil kit from Beth Bender Beauty is $36.00 and is available at bettesboutique.com. Coming next How to do a Cat eye.

Eva Longoria is always working her good looks.

Whether she's in a pair of sweats or a formal gown
she is always camera ready. To get her look start by lining the eyes top and a touch underneath with a black eyeliner or eye shadow. Try Gel liner in Onyx ($18,bettesboutique.com).
If you need a little help lining your eyes try the Get in Line Stencil kit ($36, bettesboutique.com)
Finish by giving your lashes two coats of mascara Try: L’OrĂ©al Voluminous Waterproof Mascara in black ($5, Ultra.com)

For the face and a beautiful bronzed glow like Eva’s, use a daily face moisturizer with a touch of self tanner to gradually develop a sunless glow. Next, dust a touch of all over face shimmer on the apples of your cheeks, forehead, and bridge of nose to create a luminous finish. We like: Sunkiss All Over Shimmer from beth bender beauty ($18, bettesboutique.com).

Create a beautiful flush with a deep berry powder blush. Use a fluffy brush to swirl it in small, circular motions over the apples of your cheeks and back toward your hairline. This will blend the color evenly and give a natural look. Try Butterflies Blush from Bettes Boutique and Beth Bender Beauty.

How to Create Sultry Smoky Eyes



Smoky eyes are sexy for evening, and using rich blue shades is sometimes a nice change in place of black. Start by getting the perfect smoky eye shape using your Get in Line Stencil kit or Travel set. Place the stencil over your eyelid and fill in with a navy shadow. We used Betty Blu Eye Dust from Beth Bender Beauty and then went over again using our fingers for a more intense look.


Concentrating on your upper lash line will also give the illusion of very thick lashes. Drag some shadow along your lower lash line using the same smoky eye stencil marked bottom. Holding the stencil underneath your eye, dip your brush into the shadow and sweep the color along the stencil for a perfect line. Finish with two coats of mascara, my new favorite is Here to Stay from Prescriptives. Your lashes will look thick and long without looking clumpy.


The Get in Line Stencil Kit & Travel Set are available at bettesboutique.com

Beauty On The Go With Beth Bender
























Want to be glam without spending too much face time in front of the mirror? Here’s a few tips that you might try.

Accent your eyes with a brown shadow by smudging a bit along your upper lash line. If you’re a gal who likes to line the bottom then try a taupe shadow and brush along the lower lashes. This will give you a more natural look than using a pencil and stay put much longer.

Try a bright pink blush like “A little Crush” mineral blush from beth bender beauty. It is actually very pretty on and gives the cheeks the right amount of color for that “just flushed look”.

To give your cheekbones a bit of Hollywood dazzle take a shimmer cream or powder and apply as a highlighter. Try Benefit’s High Beam in Light Pink or All Over Face Shimmer in “Pretty”.

Finish the look with a shimmery nude lip gloss. My fav of course Chasing the Cash from beth bender beauty.

You can substitute a coral or peach tone mineral blush if your skin tone is darker.

Cheers!

xoxo,

Beth
