It's hard to believe that holiday merchandise is already on display and 
the year is almost over. Each year seems to go by more quickly than the 
last. But I'm not complaining--this time of year is always fun for any 
makeup lover and the temptations are plentiful! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I picked up a few items today from Chanel's holiday collection <i>Nuit Infinie de Chanel</i>. Included are two new, gorgeous Illusion D'Ombres ($36 limited edition): #827 <i>Initiation </i>a sparkly, mid-tone neutral bronze and #837 <i>Fatal </i>a
 shimmery, mid-tone silvered-plum. I am a fan of Illusion D'Ombres and 
felt I couldn't pass these two up, as they are the type of neutral 
shades that I love to wear on a daily basis, but with an extra added 
sparkle that will make them great for special occasions as well. <i>Initiation </i>seems to be the more sparkly of the two. More thoughts and photos to come, once I've had a chance to play around with them! </div>

I also purchased <i>Indécise</i>, one of the new Rouge Allure Luminous Intense lipsticks introduced recently in this Fall's <i>Rouge Allure Moiré </i>collection.
 I was told this shade is being re-promoted as part of the holiday 
collection. A few of the other items, including the star of the 
collection, the<i> </i>Ombres Matelassées<i> </i>Eye Shadow Palette in <i>Charming</i>, had not arrived yet.</div>

Below are my quick in-store swatches of just a few items. I'm sorry they
 don't do these shadows justice but I thought I'd share them anyway in 
case they are helpful. I loved the look of the liquid liner in <i>Bronze </i>but decided I did not <i>need</i> it (although I sure do <i>want</i> it!). I also have my eye on the limited edition polish, <i>Rouge Rubis</i>, and
 may go back for it at some point. I was in a rush and didn't have a 
chance to try it on today, but judging by the bottle it looks like a 
beautiful, classic bright red.</div>

Paris' Secret Celeb Makeup Tips

Bat for Lashes 
</div>
<div class="desc">
You've got to hand it to Paris, she has amazing style, especially in the
 makeup department. The itsy bitsy spider's got nothin' on Paris Hilton 
in this look. She is absolutely angelic. The false lashes are dramatic. 
She balances them out well with just a touch of neutral eyeshadow. For 
her shimmering pout, Paris recommends a rosy lipgloss with specks of 
shimmering orange.
</div>
<div class="image_wrapper">

<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="nav_5108072"></a>
<div class="item_title">
#<span>2</span>

Rainbow Bright
</div>
<div class="desc">
Paris shows off one of her best secrets here. Be fearless! The rainbow 
striped eye shadow and deep blue liner are not only fun, they're 
surprisingly flattering. Paris loves the saturated colors of a good 
quality shadow. Start off with a blue eyeliner and black mascara. Then 
sweep three colors at an angle to make perfectly posh stripes. If you 
want to go the extra mile, get yourself some ultra shiny lipgloss. It's 
one of her favorite beauty products.
</div>
<div class="image_wrapper">

Summer Nights
</div>
<div class="desc">
Paris keeps it bright and shiny even in full on, sweaty music festival 
chaos. She uses a powder blush to accentuate her famous cheekbones. And a
 thick concealer helps to take care of any nasty dark circles under her 
baby blues. She also swears by laser treatments to keep her skin looking
 plump. You really do need great skin to pull off this look. We love her
 ridiculously long lashes and glittering lids. And you'll seldom find 
her without those glassy lips.
</div>
<div class="image_wrapper">

Matte-Libs 
</div>
<div class="desc">
An eye needn't always sparkle to be glamorous. Take away the shine and 
give Paris Hilton's barely smokey makeup a go. A generous sweep of matte
 shadow creates the setting. Then a darker shadow is swept back and 
forth just under the brow bone. This time she takes care not to darken 
the bottom of her eye too much. Paris makes use of a thin black rim over
 her top lashes. She extends it to the end of her eye and no further. 
It's a great way to adapt the look of a smokey eye to the day, or any 
time you'd prefer a more understated stare (while still drawing stares).
</div>
<div class="image_wrapper">

Barbie Doll
</div>
<div class="desc">
It's funky. It's classic. It's cheesy. It's chic. Paris Hilton knows 
just how to play up her Barbie doll features with thick winged eyeliner 
and pale pink lips. A good liquid liner is your best bet if you want to 
replicate the style. Paris likes to pare it up with a simple black 
mascara. Apparently, Paris likes drugstore makeup as much as the rest of
 us. Then it's off to meet Ken with the perfect accessory: a light pink 
lipstick with a slightly blueish tint.
</div>
<div class="image_wrapper">

Bad Barbie
</div>
<div class="desc">
Think of this as Barbie gone wild. The same pale pink lips and winged 
eyeliner are transformed with a few simple tricks. Her false lashes 
provide the perfect flirty flutter. A smudge tool will help turn that 
thick bold eyeliner into a smokier version. You can use the residue 
that's left on the smudger to add a gentle smear of black to the lower 
lash line. Don't forget to line the inner rims of your eyes also. Be 
careful, though! Barbie needs both eyes to drive the convertible.
</div>
<div class="image_wrapper">

Orange Twist 
</div>
<div class="desc">
Paris Hilton is a knock-out in coral lipstick. It's not all about the 
perfect shade of orange though. She insists on drinking loads of water 
to maintain a perfectly hydrated pout. And she's insistent on getting 
plenty of rest, even with her jet set lifestyle. Yeah, we know; not 
exactly unheard of advice. But lady Hilton is living proof of it. And 
once you've given your body the star treatment; you're ready to rock 
this classic Hollywood glamour with a twist. Try  a bright coral 
lipstick that is somewhat matte. Make sure your lips are in tip top 
condition though!
</div>
<div class="image_wrapper">

Purple Princess
</div>
<div class="desc">
A flush of sparkling lavender and sumptuous nude lips: What more could a
 media darling ask for? The gorgeous look is a mixture of sweet and 
seductive. Little miss Blue Eyes begins with white eyeshadow over her 
lids. Then she applies a grey-toned lavender along the bottom of her eye
 and upper creases. Paris uses black kohl eye pencil to offset the 
innocent look of light purple. And for that perfect complexion, she 
recommends using concealer and a light powder.
</div>
<div class="image_wrapper">

Golden Goddess 
</div>
<div class="desc">
Our girl is throwing us some great inspiration in the form of awesome 
bronzer. It's all about glowing skin on top of that famous dark eye. Her
 secret to pulling off this golden style is starting off with well cared
 for skin. Having great genetics probably doesn't hurt either. Paris 
recommends consistent use of cleansers and toners. She's also up for a 
laser treatment every now and then. Now that you're nice and scrubbed up
 (and possibly laser zapped), end with a light dusting of bronzer over 
the apples of your cheeks, extending towards the forehead.
</div>
<div class="image_wrapper">

Classic Hollywood
</div>
<div class="desc">
This is one of Ms. Hilton's favorite looks. She uses a color pallet 
that's simple, basic, but never boring. Once again we see Paris working 
one of her beauty staples: eyeliner. Although she loves the allure of a 
smudged and smokey liner, she takes care to keep it crisp and delicate. 
It makes for one classy look. And as always, what's a celebutante 
without some awesome lip color? Look for something slightly glossy, in a
 neutral shade. And if you're going for some real authentic Paris 
inspiration, go all out with a thick set of false lashes.
</div>
<div class="image_wrapper">

Punch Eye
</div>
<div class="desc">
A black eye doesn't usually look too hot. But Paris pulls of two! We've 
tried this ourselves and it's definitely worth a shot. Smudge a layer of
 dark purple over some black liner. Make sure to trace around your 
entire eye. We love a smokey brown eye shadow palette for this. Keep the
 rest of your face looking fresh and clean to avoid an overly goth look.
</div>
<div class="image_wrapper">

Almost Au Natural
</div>
<div class="desc">
We love the subtlety of Paris' almost bare beauty. To give this style 
its best shot, make sure your skin is in tip top condition. We like a 
purifying exfoliator to get that perfect canvas. Then all it takes is a 
glimmering white eyeshadow applied under the eyebrow and near the tear 
duct. Use a firm, dark brown eye pencil to (very!) lightly line the 
outside corners of your eyes. A clear gloss finishes it off perfectly.
</div>
<div class="image_wrapper">

Raccoon Eyes Done Right
</div>
<div class="desc">
Paris is famous for her piercing blue eyes. We love how she plays them 
up with bold black eyeliner. It can be a hard look to pull off but we 
say go for it. Start out with a shimmery neutral eyeshadow on your lids.
 Next, you will need to apply a bold black eyeliner to both your upper 
and lower lash lines. Don't be shy! Make sure to wing the top liner up 
and out. Then just finish with a classic red lipstick, black mascara, 
and you're good to go!
</div>
<div class="image_wrapper">

Sweet and Simple
</div>
<div class="desc">
"I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls", so said one of the
 great beauties, Audrey Hepburn. Looking at Paris' gleaming smile, we 
can see why. We love the smoldering makeup she is so well known for. But
 there's something great about this rosy look on such a controversial 
celeb. She uses a toned down version of her smokey eye and adds in a 
slightly more saturated lip gloss. Paris loves lip gloss, probably more 
than her own privacy. Another thing Paris loves? Her blue colored 
contacts, of course. But with that smile, we couldn't care less.
</div>
<div class="image_wrapper">

No Sweat
</div>
<div class="desc">
Paris rocks it in this photo-shoot. The golden version of a smokey eye 
makes it a great look to use during long hot summer days. We've all been
 there. You start out looking fresh and inevitably end up with your face
 melting away. There it goes! But, a little smeared mascara only adds to
 this sultry look. And the glossy red lip compliments a dewy complexion.
 Ok, it's sweaty. We'll just call it dewy. If you're up for trying it 
out, we recommend a light gold and bronze eyeshadow for this style.
</div>

Anime Makeup Transformations

The Wig
</div>
<div class="desc">
Cosplay just isn’t any fun without a wig. Don’t be afraid to go bold. 
Anime characters are known for their brightly-colored hair.             
        When you choose a color, think about the character you’re 
creating. Young or sweet characters have pastel-colored hair, while 
anime villains have darker colors. For an even more authentic effect, 
match your with to your contacts. Get your hair wig ready before you put
 on your makeup. Tie it back tight and clip your wig cap in place.

Anime Girls
</div>

Girls who put on anime makeup are called anime girls. Anime is a style 
of drawing. Anime characters are most recognizable by their big eyes.<br /><br />The
 style is so popular that people have begun to mimic it. How do they get
 these animated looks? With makeup. It looks a lot like Photoshop. But 
no digital retouching was involved in making these anime makeup 
transformations.

The key to an anime look is flawless skin. After all, drawings don’t 
have pores. Anime girls start with a heavy layer of liquid foundation. 
The color isn’t important--anime girls come in all shades. <br /><br />They 
follow the heavy liquid coverage with powder coverage. Again, more is 
better. Think of it as creating a new canvas on top of your old one. 
When your skin is as smooth as porcelain like Destiny Godley’s here, you
 look like someone drew you.

Big Eyes
</div>
<div class="desc">
The key to a great anime makeup transformation is the eyes. Making them anime-big requires a lot of white eye pencil. <br /><br />Create
 a thick white line under your eyes to make them look bigger. Continue 
the line roughly one quarter of the way up your top lid from the inside 
corner. This will make your eyes look wider. Use black eye shadow for 
the rest of your top lid to create a wing. Line your bottom lids below 
the white line.
</div>
<div class="image_wrapper">

Color Contacts
</div>
<div class="desc">
Color contacts are optional, but a pair of purple eyes certainly is 
striking. Feel free to have fun with color. The best way to look for 
eccentric shades is online. Pink, purple, light blue and green are all 
great anime colors. <br /><br />There are even lenses designed to make your 
irises larger, just like an anime character’s. If you like to cosplay a 
lot, buy several pairs. You can change your characters around the color 
of your eyes.
</div>
<div class="image_wrapper">

Fake Eyelashes
</div>
<div class="desc">
No anime girl is complete without a thick set of lashes, mascara just won’t cut it. Find a thick, long pair of lashes. Don’t forget to buy glue. Then stick them on. The instructions are on the lashes if this is your first time. <br /><br />Now
 glue on a pair of thinner lower lashes. These go on the top edge of the
 black line you created underneath the white line. And remember, makeup 
first. Otherwise, you’ll knock the lashes off as you apply it.
</div>
<div class="image_wrapper">

Bigger Eyes
</div>
<div class="desc">
You don’t always have to take anime makeup seriously. The best way to 
get larger-than-life anime eyes is to draw them from scratch. Some girls
 close their eyes and paint new ones on top using liquid makeup. It’s not hard if you can draw. <br /><br />Then
 they glue false eyelashes on the top lids of their fake eyes. Another 
pair gets glued to the lids of their real eyes. Closed, painted and 
lashed, your eyes have a shockingly-real anime look. You can’t see where
 you’re going, but that’s really not the point.
</div>
<div class="image_wrapper">

Apple Cheeks
</div>
<div class="desc">
Want to create an innocent-looking anime character? Go heavy on the 
blush. Choose a light shade of pink. Then apply it liberally over the 
apples of your cheeks. Don’t know where the apples are? Smile. This will
 make your apples stand out. <br /><br />Keep smiling as you give them an anime-pink glow with your makeup brush.
</div>
<div class="image_wrapper">

Teeny Tiny Lips
</div>
<div class="desc">
Anime characters have tiny mouths. If you have a human-sized mouth, you can create a smaller one. <br /><br />Start
 with a lip liner in the color of your choice. The lighter the lipstick,
 the more innocent the anime character. Then draw a rounded set of lips 
on your own lips. Blend the rest of your real lips into your foundation.
 Your mouth will look small and pouty.
</div>
<div class="image_wrapper">

A V-Shaped Jaw
</div>
<div class="desc">
Anime characters are drawn with v-shaped jaws. If your jaw doesn’t make a
 “v”, you can contour one. Use the same dark brown eye shadow that you 
used for your nose. But this time use a large face brush. Now take a good look at your chin in the mirror. <br /><br />Wherever
 it deviates from the “v” shape, contour it out with the dark eye 
shadow. Check your progress periodically. Don’t go too dark or you’ll 
create a beard.
</div>
<div class="image_wrapper">

The Nose
</div>
<div class="desc">
Anime girls contour their noses with dark eye shadow. A slim, shaped 
nose is one of the keys to making your face look painted on. It can be 
the difference between a jaw-dropping anime look and a so-so one. <br /><br />Choose
 a shade of brown eye shadow (at least two shades darker than your 
foundation). Apply it with a medium-sized makeup brush. Contour beneath 
your eyebrow (starting in the middle) and down the size of your nose. 
Repeat on the other side. The dark contouring will highlight the thin 
bridge of your nose for a slender anime look.
</div>
<div class="image_wrapper">

The Costume
</div>
<div class="desc">
Makeup is the most important part of an anime look. The best way to finish it off is with a costume. Some girls save their anime makeup skills for cosplay. But you don’t have to mimic your favorite character. <br /><br />With
 the right clothes, you can make a whole new one. A lot of girls head to
 thrift stores for vintage finds. Some make their pieces from scratch. 
When you find the perfect look, celebrate it with a photo shoot.
</div>
<div class="image_wrapper">

Getting Out There
</div>
<div class="desc">
Anime looks aren’t just for photo sessions. They’re great for 
conventions, your makeup can take a great costume to the next level. Be 
prepared to get asked for lots of photos. And keep your makeup with you.
 You’ll need touchups throughout the day. Smudged or worn off makeup 
will take away from the effect. Just do a little Googling online and 
you’re sure to find an anime convention near you.

Anastasiya Shpagina

<div class="desc">
This is Anastasiya Shpagina. She's one of the most famous anime girls on
 the web. Anastasiya is 20 and from the Ukraine. But she's adopted the 
Japanese name Fukkacumi (we would too if our last name rhymed with 
vagina). <br /><br />She spends hours every day transforming her face. And 
she's got serious makeup skills. Google her and you'll find several of 
her makeup tutorials floating around the web. She even has a YouTube 
channel that guides you to her look brush stroke by brush stroke.

Taking It Too Far
</div>
<div class="desc">
Anime makeup is a fun hobby. But some women take it too far. Like, 
surgery too far. Famous anime girl Anastasiya Shpagina has said she’s 
considering getting her eyes permanently widened. <br /><br />Some girls get
 their jaws shaved down into a V Shape. And nose jobs are certainly 
nothing new. Cosplay is fun but it doesn’t have to involve surgery. A 
makeup transformation will more than do the job.
