MANILA, Philippines - If there’s one thing Tyra Banks has said time and time again on America’s Next Top Model, it’s to never forget to smile with your eyes. They are easily the most expressive part of the face, and Tyra herself loves to give her eyes center stage: whether it’s just for her talk show, for photographs or for the red carpet.
Indeed, make-up trends change so fast, but eye exposure has always been a mainstay. Dolling up your eyes is so easy, as long as you have the right tools to do the job.
First off, you’ll need a couple of reliable eyeshadows. The new 5 Couleurs Palette by Dior is so versatile, each palette containing five shades with multiple functions. The “Haute Color” trio is composed of one light, one medium, and one dark shade that coordinate well for simple yet striking eyes. “Graphic Duo” shades are two contrasting colors which, when layered, emphasize your peepers. Each of the five colors can also be applied individually on the eyelid or used as eyeliner.
Next, use a good mascara, like the DiorShow Extase Mascara to plump up your lashes. The specially-designed tiered brush evenly coats each lash, giving your eyes a dramatic look. DiorShow Extase Mascara not only gives you beautiful thicker lashes a la Penelope Cruz with one sweep, it also promises to make them stronger, fuller and shinier after each use.
With these in your make-up arsenal, getting gorgeous eyes will be so simple. Keep in mind that when you want to highlight your eyes, don’t go overboard with the rest of your make-up, and you’ll be giving Tyra a run for her money in no time.
