The EYEBROWS

Eyebrows always stand in the background & let the makeup speak for itself but the designers are bringing them forward. An untamed or overdone eyebrow can ruin the whole look if we do it wrong. For the first time, eyebrows step out to play the main part in a makeup look on the Fall 2010 runway . From feather brushed details, colored brows to uni-brows, beauty trend for fall is a strong brow

 Feather brushed brows stands out with perfect nude face @ PRADA's show























































A similar look but concentrate on only one eyebrow @ Erin Wasson's show





















































 A blonde brow , red lips & red eyes look chic @ GIVENCHY's show




Do you you think you're gonna follow this trend next season ? IMO, I think they look great on runway, but maybe not ready for real life yet. We'll have to wait and see

Burberry Makeup

The British brand is launching a cosmetic line this July. This is the brand's first foray into cosmetic beside the fragrances they've been doing. Christopher Bailey , Burberry's chief creative director, told WWD :
           
          "It started because I felt that, at shows and the shoots, the whole [Burberry] attitude is epitomized through the shoes, the bags, the clothes, the accessories, but then the face was the one thing I really struggled with. When we were doing makeup, I felt like we weren't able to get the right attitude. It was either caked-on makeup or then just the wrong colors, the wrong tones, the wrong spirit for makeup. I wanted it to be this kind of effortless elegance."

The makeup line continues the signature trench - khaki plaid pattern into the packaging. It'll be different from any other cosmetic brands which scream glamour or in style. Bailey wants to make women feel effortlessly beautiful . That's why he created this line to fit their everyday use. The line will include everything from foundation to lip definer to makeup brushes. Cant wait to see the real products coming out in stores.

Here's a sneak peak of their new line in a store
