With summer parties in full swing, Modelinia.com (www.modelinia.com) is here to give you tips on the hottest makeup trends. Grey and silver eye makeup work on all skin tones and can be seen on the runways of Marc Jacobs and Matthew Williamson and on celebrities like Kristen Stewart, Hilary Duff and Alicia Keys.

Johnny Lavoy, Maybelline’s resident makeup experts and the host of Modelinia.com’s series Get the Look, gives step by step instructions on how to get this classic look in the below video.

1. Sweep a light silver color across the eyelid. Go right up to the crease on the lid and stop where the crease starts and apply from the inside corner to where the lash line ends. Don’t forget to blend in because you never want to see when one color stops and the other color starts.
2. Create Depth- Move on to the crease color which should be a smokier charcoal grey. Start at the outer corner of the eye and work your way to the center.
3. Make them pop- Choose a lighter color- almost white- to highlight the brow. Brush the color under the brow bed and inner eye.
4. Line your eyes with a dark grey liner along the lash line and smudge it in so that it blends with the rest of the eye color.
5. Finish off with a black mascara and shiny lip.

COVERGIRL is getting ready to launch a few new products next month and we wanted to give you a sneak peek! See below for details on Exact Eyelights eyeshadows and eyeliners and Simply Ageless Sculpting Blush!

Follow Sandra Bullock’s lead and subtly brighten your eyes with aqua liner. Rim just your bottom lash line with a waterproof pencil, like Make Up For Ever Aqua Eyes in Turquoise. Aqua enhances any eye color and looks best with neutral eye shadow.

Aqua Eyes Collection by Make Up For Ever is a travel-size Aqua Eyes kit containing five vibrant shades.

MAKE UP FOR EVER Aqua Eyes Holiday Collection contains five shades to create an array of beauty-full looks. Aqua Eyes is a two-in-one eyeshadow and liner pencil that adheres to the eyelids and resists water even under the most extreme conditions, without running or fading. Its smooth texture effortlessly lines the eyes and, by smudging immediately after applying to the lid, it can double as a pigment-rich shadow.

This set contains:

- Bronze 10L (metallic bronze)
- Purple 11L (metallic purple)
- Turquoise 7L (light turquiose sheen)
- Mat Black 0L (black)
- Iridescent Navy Blue 3L (navy blue sheen)

Aqua Eyes can double as a shadow by smudging it immediately after applying to the lid.

My favorite mascara for the last year or so, has been Covergirl’s Lash Blast.  It’s going to take a pretty amazing mascara to make me switch. I really liked this new mascara from CARGO, but I don’t know if it’s going to win me over.  One thing I really like about this CARGO mascara, was how it made my eyelashes look.  Each eyelash stands out on it’s own, not clumped together with it’s neighbor.  I really liked this a lot - and look forward to seeing what my eyelashes look like after 30 days!

LashActivator by CARGO is a unique primer and/or mascara that is proven to boost the appearance of lashes in just 30 days!

CARGO LashActivator™ contains a nourishing blend of ingredients that has been proven to visibly increase the appearance of lashes’ length and fullness. The formula is made with a unique, multi-faceted complex, which contains Marine Algae extracts to increase the appearance of lash density, citrus-derived Flavonoids to promote microcirculation for optimal lash health, and a Peptide-biotin complex to slow the rate of lash loss. It’s gentle on sensitive eyes and the flexible rubber wand was specifically designed to build and separate each lash for a full, fan-like effect. Finally, a safe and effective way to achieve those gorgeous lashes you’ve always dreamed of!
