What do your brows say about you?

SPRING TREND: BOLD BROW

I loved seeing Bold Brows on the spring runways! They frame the face and create a younger fresh look. The best way to achieve this look is with a creamy brow pencil, fill in sparse areas and extend out making sure to stay proportionate to your face. Once desired look is in place set with clear mascara. Check out some of our favorite beauty icons known for their beautiful brows.

This sparked the question, what your brows say about you?  Your eyebrows are the main attraction of your face and can completely change the shape of your face depending on how they are defined.  Check out what your brows could be saying about your personal style.

Thick bold brow = a woman with confidence (think Brooke Shields)

High arch brow = a woman who is intelligent and self-assured (think first lady Michelle Obama)

Thin brow = a woman who is fearless (think Pamela Anderson)

The perfect brow = a woman who is sexy and powerful (think Kim Kardashian)

The dramatic brow = a woman who knows what she wants which is to make a statement (think Fergie)

Sexy/Feminine brow = a woman who can spend a lot of time on maintenance (think Megan Fox)

Fierce brow = a woman who is detail-oriented (think Jennifer Lopez)

Unique brow = a woman who is independent and not afraid to go against the grain (think Camilla Belle)

Barely there brow = a woman who is elegant and natural (think Gwyneth Paltrow)

Get This Spring Trend Look!

The trend for Spring 2013 is blue eye liner and blue eye shadow.  We love Rachel Zoe, did you see her blue eye liner on The Rachel Zoe Project?  Blue eye liner is amazing since it makes your eyes pop even if you don’t have blue eyes!  With so many different shades of blue the possibilities are endless.  The look couldn’t be easier to create. Try keeping your eye nude by using Platinum eye shadow and then line with liquid liner like our Azure.  If you’d rather use a pencil South Pacific or Ocean would do the trick as well!

For a look that makes you stand out from the crowd try using blue eye shadow this season.  Try blending several shades to build the look.  ZuZu Luxe’s Calypso and Breeze are used on the model above.  When trying this trend for yourself don’t be afraid to experiment with all different shades of blue (turquoise, navy, sapphire, cyan).  Remember the look is bright, bold and to make your eyes pop!

Emerald Green is the trendy hue of the year.  You will see this color everywhere from fashion, home decor, cosmetics, and accessories. This bold color suggests gems, money, success, growth, and The Emerald City in “The Wizard of Oz”.  How will you integrate this lush and vibrant color into your beauty routine?  Here’s how to create ZuZu Luxe’s emerald eyes pictured above, from talented makeup artist Karim Orange:

Iguana eyeliner was used all over the eyelid.  Also Casino eye shadow was used very lightly where the green stops but not extended to brow area.  Lastly Leaf eyeliner along the water line.  The rest of the palette was created using L-21 Oil-Free Liquid Foundation, Sunset Blush, Cappuccino Lipliner, and Mischief Lip Gloss in the center of lips.

We would love to see your Emerald makeup creations using our products on any of our social media sites.  Post yours today:
