As a kid, I’d drawn on myself with sunscreen so that after a day outside, I’d have white stars and hearts in the middle of my bright red sunburn. I might have been onto something more than melanoma.

Taiwanese designer Yu-Chiao Wang created a robe that allows sun (or, better yet, sunless tanning spray) to get through in a pattern, resulting in a temporary, full-body design. It’d definately be a unique addition to an open back dress.

Are you a shining blonde goddess with a need for smoky eyes liek Mary Kate Olsen? We have the secret!

It doesn’t take black eye liner to get that smoky look when you have blue eyes. You can create it without using colors that are too dark. Ashley is our subject for this demonstration.

To begin, we’ll start with a primer on her lids. This creates a smoother, longer-lasting, and crease-proof eye shadow application.

The base color is essential. We don’t want to go too dark yet. We’re applying a silver blue shadow to Ashley as our base color.

Now, let’s go green for a cooler, neutral shadow. In this case, we will use a blue-green in the crease.

Pretty dramatic, right? Already, her eyes are beginning to smolder. Now let’s apply a bit of dark blue in the crease as well.

When doing this at home, apply makeup in layers and you won’t get it too dark. That way, you don’t have to worry about taking anything off. We also suggest that you blend the colors on the lid.

Now, let’s line Ashley’s top lid with black and the bottom lid with dark blue. It doesn’t take much to accentuate what we’ve already done.

Finally, we will apply black mascara to the upper and lower lashes. We will finish up by filling in Ashley’s eyebrows with a brownish-blonde brow shadow.

The end result is smoky eyes, just like Mary Kate’s. Isn’t she gorgeous? She’s ready for a night on the town!

For four years, Beauty Schools Directory has been helping students find schools to become a cosmetologist, esthetician, make-up artist, and many other careers in beauty.

We’re very proud to announce that we’ve added massage schools to the list. We are very excited by how this new addition will let us help more students find the right school and get started on a career they will love!

You can read about massage therapy, working as a massage therapist, or find a massage therapy school.

Mary Kate Olsen has everyone talking with her smoky eye make-up. With blue eyes, it’s easy to go too dark, but Mary Kate looks terrific.

In the video, we show you how to create this dramatic look for a night out on the town.
