In memory of one of my beauty idols, I couldn’t resist a take on a Cleopatra-style eye!
Did you know Dame Liz usually did her own makeup on movies and in real life? It’s true – check out this People Magazine article about Way Bandy, which is actually fascinating in itself. In any event, I remember reading a biography about Elizabeth Taylor many years ago and Angela Lansbury said that they’d worked together once and she told Elizabeth that it was a good thing for actors to know how to do their hair and makeup and be able to pull theirselves together and Elizabeth did her own makeup from then on.

Beautiful! Thanks for the Way Bandy article too!
Ah, Colette, you’re right! Cathy – you’re welcome !
WOW – this “blue” me away! (Like you didn’t see THAT coming…) Perfectly executed, and it’s interesting that you chose MAC False Lashes for this look.
LOL … I didn’t see that coming at all!!!!!! And, psst, I used False Lashes because I had temporarily misplaced Propel My Eyes … LOL!
