Catwalk Beauty: The Lower Line



3.1 Phillip Lim S/S 2013


I feel like I've been breaking the cardinal rule of makeup: applying eyeliner only to the lower lash line and not bothering with the top. I suppose it's kind of '90s (heroin chic -- ugh), but since I've been going through what is possibly the worst start to one's year, why not embrace it? Le tired chic = le tired writing. Oh well, it's the best I can do. 




Phillip Lim had a particularly charming and messy thing going on. The liner in question is NARS 'Black Moon' but I actually prefer one with just a tad bit of colour. My liner of choice has been Lise Watier's Crayon Kajal in 'Noir Bleu' -- just a little hint of indigo.

Worst start to a year! Oh no! Hang in there, it can only get better! (knock on wood). As to the liner, I say yes. I'll do my lower lid and then just tightline the top, with nothing on the actual lid, and I feel like it's kind of a fun way to go. But then I'm totally having a 90s throwback moment too, so maybe I'm not very reliable on this issue...

Yeah, maybe I should get that "Hang in There" kitten poster for my office.

I'm having a major '90s throwback moment too... Great minds think alike!

I think I'll pass on this one. I can barely get eyeliner to stay put on my upper lid!
