These days we are spoiled for makeup information. One of my favourite beauty blogs is “Girls In The Beauty Department” at Glamour.com. They post once or twice a day (at least). The posts are short, useful, sweet and fun. Smokey eye, being a major trend, is featured often, to my delight. Two main writers: Beth Shapouri and Petra Guglielmetti have some really good insights and observations.

My favorite feature is when they analyse celebrity makeup. Firstly, they know what they are talking about. Secondly, the style of writing is entertaining and enjoyable. Thirdy: the photos! Being Glamour after all, they have access to best new hot celebrity shots - something that most smaller blogs just don’t offer. I’ve seen best smokey eyes on the planet enjoyably dissected there and I loved it.

Another nice thing about it is the exchange with the readers. There are usually quite a lot of comments and enjoyable makeup conversations.

Today, they are serving a nice little post about The Mighty Highlighter. Although highlighter is not really eye makeup it has everything to do with smokey eyes. As the loveliness of Jennifer Lopez’s and Kim Kardashian’s smokey eyes proves. If you are serious about your smokey eyes never underestimate the power of highlighter. This great post by Beth Shapouri will explain where to apply it. Keep lovely.
