Broad strokes of black, angry slashes of mermaid colours and luscious licks of hot or baby pinks are bowing out from your eyes. Eyes, the mirror to your mysterious soul and signature style, are having a gala with the light side.
Dior, the messiah of fashionistas and beginners alike, has once again swooped in with its latest trend – the Dior Pastel Eyes.
Set against an ancestry of satin smooth tones and velvet touched sheen, these four repositionable strips of eyeliner sweeps are set to make you raise your eyebrows.
Colours to make your eyes pop:
Fresh as the dew and subtle as a veiled temptation, the hues go along with the zesty young go-getters of today.
Customizable for eyes of every shape and suitable for fun of every day, these sweeps make as bold a statement as a sultry scarlet or a goth gray would – only subtler in effort, never in impact.
The lines come in a quartet hue palette:
- Yellow – The daffodil yellow reminds you of those sundress clad days at the beach, under the sun-kissed sky.
- Peach – The peach makes the mischief in your eyes pop.
- Pink – A tulip pink emboldens your blush
- Pistachio – The pistachio green makes your eyes hold mysteries just beyond reach.
Fast fashion for the fast-paced you:
Catering to the fast divas, who have lesser time than perfume on their hands, this line of coloured sweeps make makeup a quick fix rather than an elaborate art. Similar to their sisters in eyelashes and nail clip-ons, these strips make beauty effortless.
Following the shadow of the 2015 Spring/Summer collection, the Dior Pastel Eyes take base in satin’s texture. That is the reason why these eyeliner pasties don’t reflect a flat and dull look, lending a subtle sheen to your eyes instead.
Engineered in the imagination of Peter Philips, these tendrils of subdued wildness don’t get along with mascara. They come unattached, without the need of another highlighter underneath them.
Safe makeup is the best makeup:
Priced at a spiked up $61 per pack, Dior Pastel Eyes require the same care you would grace your fake eyelashes with. Here are some quick tips:
- Don’t twirl them between your thumbs and don’t add a gallon of glue in hopes of making them stick longer hours.
- Tweezers or mini clips are your best friends to pick them up, lest you want to mess them up or worse, crush them under your fingers.
- A couple or more drops of hygienic glue will happily support your pastels till you peel them off.
The name behind the fame:
Philips is an artist known for his passionate affair with experimentation in makeup. Every year, the wacky wigs, exaggerated lashes, and theatrical colours play around the ramp at fashion shows.
This year though, the maverick seems to have caught a reverse train – and the fashion world has jumped on to the bandwagon with glee. It looks like the eleventh commandment in our fashion bibles.
Be it for an informal luncheon with friends, an evening gala with socialites or a more intimate dinner with your partner, the paste-on eyeliner slivers make a splash of style everywhere. Slide on your pastel pasties to grab some eyeballs this season.
