I often think of Bobbi Brown as a neutrals kind of cosmetics company - they have such beautiful nude eye palettes. But a nude eye was not in play backstage before Rachel Roy's Fall 2010 fashion show.
"Eyes are intense, covered in rich velvet ... scarlet and black create a modern smolder," said Wendy Rowe for Bobbi Brown Cosmetics. When I walked in and saw Rowe preparing the model at left, with a finished makeup look, as a demo for the makeup artists to follow I knew the look would be dramatic.
"Iridescent 'peacock feather[ eyes gleam in denim and burgundy metallic shades from brow to lower lash line with a hint of aqua on inner corners, ultimately lined with a black kohl pencil," the media alert read.

"An even, dewy finish of the skin, softly defined pink cheek, and sheer beige lip allow the eyes to be the star of this show."
