Shimmering eye makeup, usually reserved for teens and showgirls, typically resurfaces at this time of the year. We saw subtle metallic gold accents on the eyes at the Chanel Pre-Fall 2015 show just last month in Salzburg, and now it’s time to add a little light and sparkle to our complexion for the party season.
