Makeup Trends for 2008

This year, 2007, was the year of crazy fashion, with a style that was part-70’s, part-80’s, part-90’s and part something completely different. That said, it’s hard to predict what will be stylish in 2008. But there’s one way to begin preparations: makeup.

Emphasis on the eye:

 For 2008, the smokey “cat’s eyes” are in. This can be achieved with dark liner around the whole eye that goes to the far corner of the eye with an upward sweep. Eyebrows should be done with a fuller, more natural look, and the eyelashes should also be fuller and darker, which is complimentary to the darker, smokey look that’ll be in. (By the way, an extra layer of mascara will make you appear much less tired than you really are.)

The lips:

All shades of red are in for lip color, from brick red to plum reds to bluish reds and everything in-between; it’s just a matter of finding the right shade.

One thing to keep in mind, though: don’t do up both your eyes and your lips. If you’re going all out on one, be more subtle with the other. Draw attention to only one part of your face, and use a lip gloss or nudes for the other thing.
