GO FOR IT Why not wear blue eye shadow? AND WHILE YOU’RE AT IT, PAIR IT WITH GOLD METALLIC PIGMENTS. In this new world of Instagram and picture perfect moments, we often forget to stop over thinking the end result and simply take a risk to go for the glory. Blue eye shadow is a statement. It is a look mostly reserved for fresh-out-of-school makeup artists, and the glorious works of art that serve us at Sephora and M.A.C. counters. My decision to feature blue eye shadow this issue came to me in a dream, and for the first time I didn’t over think or over plan. I simply went on set and tried to execute a vision in my mind. It wasn’t exact, but it brought a lesson forward. Sometimes when it comes to beauty and creation, we need to stop thinking and just do it. How else can new ideas be created? How else can you reach new beauty heights? My advice is to be fearless, listen to your color intuition, and try something different. You may surprise yourself. There is an endless supply of colors, tints, stains, and intensities to explore over the course of a lifetime. Don’t limit yourself. Dream a little.
