I'm flawed! My eyes! Every morning I have to put in my @*#$^ *#&$)% #*)$*#^ (insert every curse word here) contacts. I dread this. Sometimes, all I want to do is wear my fabulously {all too expensive} eye glasses. But then again, at the E! office, I need to look somewhat presentable and attractive...
For so many years, I never knew how to wear makeup with glasses. I just figured it out!
1* Keep your face fresh, highlighting your cheeks with rosie, creamy blush. Keep your skin dewy with tinted moisturizer (I like Balm Shelter and Nars).
2* No eyeshadow necessary. The darkness of the shadow will read all-too-wrong when disguised under a fabulous pair of glasses. Like those moments when you know your shadow is heavy and your in natural light {help}!
3* And the finisher: Line the top of your eye in a cat-eye sweep of strong liner. I am currently obsessed with Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Shadow Pencil (pictured above). It's a thick pencil, but if applied with a steady, confident stroke, it equals sassy perfection. 


Top that off with a thin coat of mascara. Glasses never felt this right...
