The Hills have eyes!

Source: makeherup.com

wenn5176065.jpg 

Fans of The Hills may be divided between Team Lauren and Team Heidi, but everyone concedes that Audrina Patridge ultimate hgh hgh product has some pretty amazing eyes.  Allure Magazine asked her to share her lining and shadowing tricks – totally unscripted – or so we think.

My eyes are hazel, but sometimes they’ll look more brown, amber, or green.  When my hair is dark, it brings out the green. (My hair is naturally dirty blonde.)

I love black eyeliner.  I put it on the inner rims of my lash lines, top and bottom.  If I want a more dramatic look, I’ll go back over the top lash line again just a tiny bit to darken it.  If I mess up, I’ll just smudge the line with my finger and put eye shadow over it.  At night, I’ll switch to green, violet, or blue liner, and make it thick on the top and winged out at the ends.  And I always stick to pencil – lately I’ve been loving Maybelline because I never have to touch it up.

For shadow, I use M.A.C. All That Glitters as the base and a dark brown or maroon right in the crease.  And mascara’s a must.  Too Faced Lash Injection

makes my lashes long and full.  When I go out, I add Benefit Gilded Highlighter on my brow bones.  It really makes your eyes stand out!

Too Faced’s Lash Injection.

Super-volumizing and lengthening mascara. goodyear allegra effect constipation risperdal side

This exclusive, 3D formula actually builds tubes around each lash. This ” Lash Injection ” has unique elastic polymers that curl, fatten, and stretch far beyond the natural lash. This adds extreme volume, curl and length for that costly lash extension look without any of the hassle, pain or commitment. . You will no longer see clumps and lumps – but long, gorgeous, fluttering, new and improved eyelashes.

With a flick of the specially-designed “GIANT” wand lashes will be injected with indelible, weather-proof color. Substantial percentages of jojoba and vitamin E deeply condition lashes to prevent breakage and damage that can result in broken or sparse lashes. Easily removable with soap and warm water or eye make-up remover, this amazing mascara doesn’t dissolve and smudge like any ordinary mascara. Lash Injection comes off in tiny tubes, like little lash socks!

I had the chance to attend a great concert last week and see A Fine Frenzy perform. A Fine Frenzy is the band name for the uber talented Alison Sudol a 22yd old self taught pianist and singer/songwriter. Her lyrics are reminiscent of fairy tales and if the lyrics aren’t enough to draw you in Alison’s haunting voice has you hooked.

On top of being musically gifted Alison is gorgeous, I swear some girls get it all! I love her makeup so I did a little hunting to find out her favorite products which I have listed below. Alison even does her own hair and makeup for her shows I have included some of her DIY beauty tips. Also be sure to check out her video for “Almost Lover” and grab her album One Cell in the Sea!

Do you travel with hair and makeup?

Alison Sudol: No, I do all my own stuff.

Do you have any tips?

Alison Sudol: I do this thing with my mascara when I’m in a hurry: when I can’t get my eyeliner done correct, I use the mascara wand and I gently rub it against the bottom of my eye and it gives me sort of a messy, smoky look. A makeup artist taught me once to get a brown or dark purple eyeliner and warm it up on your thumb. Let it warm up and use the applicator side and gently put it on your eyelid and rub it in, and you can put eyeshadow over it to get a nice smoky eye. And blush. Even if you don’t have time to put on anything else, blush perks you right up.

LOVE HER!
