According to an old Yiddish proverb, the eyes are the mirror of the soul. That sentiment might bare more truth than presumed. Think about it. Whether you’re interviewing for a job you’ve been pining after for months or being introduced to your future soul mate, you will make eye contact. What if that gaze afforded an over-the-top artistic visage of wildly crazy colors and accents? Could you fall head over heels for a look like this one? And what if you could redesign your eyes by adding shockingly beautiful shapes, and artistic decorations to the makeup mix? How much more powerful do you think your gaze might prove to be?
Visionary makeup artists are exploring these questions and some are pushing the boundaries of just how far one can take eye makeup. These dazzling, mind-blowing colors and designs include some pretty wild cosmetic effects. I doubt butterfly wings, jewelry and even dead bees are beauty staples in your collection of cosmetics and eye makeup. Yet, no one can say this eye art creates anything less than absolutely stunning, high-impact visual effects. The result is nothing short of gorgeous.
This type of eye makeup is not for the faint-hearted, as the jewelry is pinned near their eyelids, and the butterfly wings are clipped above the eyelashes.
It’s a shocking look, which eliminates it as a popular eye-fashion choice. Still, plastic surgeons are paying attention to these trends in eye makeup, and are even embracing such non-invasive procedures like laser treatments and chemical peels to enhance a woman’s beauty. They are crafting beautiful artwork to take that human gaze to a creative level likely not seen in the world since the days of Cleopatra.
