It’s official. The smokey eye is in….AGAIN!
Thankfully that means LOTS of neutral colors (my faves).
Colors for Fall 2015 include lots of rich browns, beige, and charcoal/black on the lid. Lips stained the colors of berries, as if you’ve just bitten into a ripe juice strawberry or plum give that plump look that is so much easier to wear than deep reds (especially with lips that have thinned from age).
Makeup styles are all about the eyes, including eye liner in scribbles, double wings, and thick liner on only half of the eye.
I guess this means that I’m going to have to finally get the technique down. I’ve been avoiding learning how to get that sultry look…partly because I believe that as we age that less is more when it comes to cosmetics, but there are times (LOTS of times) when I get dressed to the nines, but my makeup is more of a TWO.
I’ll take you with me as I learn how to arch, layer, smudge, and blend without looking like a rabid raccoon.
I’ll be attempting to go from gah to glam with these gorgeous Moodstruck Addiction Shadow Palettes – Palette One (shown above left) and Two (shown above right) from Younique Products, along with a full arsenal of liners, lip stains, and of course my go-to Moodstruck 3D Fiber Lashes+ that I’ve been relying on for the past year. Eye makeup is in my comfort zone, but isn’t that what Champagne Living is all about – doing things that make you feel GREAT?
Before I take that deep breath and stare in the mirror, I’d love any tips that you have for getting the look using these trending colors for Fall 2015.

- Moodstruck Precision Pencil Eye Liners in Perfect, Passionate and Prim

Love smokey eye look, but it’s hard to do it on me because my eyelids are weird…lol or I’m not coordinated enough. Regardless, these are my favorite colors as well.
