* Old Gold Pigment – highlight over center of eyelids and inner corners
* M·A·C PRO Gold Glitter – applied over the center of the eyelids for a jeweled effect
Lips
* Lip Conditioner SPF 15 blended with a bit of concealer to tone down natural lip color

I’m sorry but… I must wonder why no one catered to the chicks eyebrows in picture one. How manly looking! The makeup is nice though.
Commenting to the comment above – I think that’s the purpose/trend – manly eyebrows.
I think I like the look – not exactly sure though =/ I do wonder how Carbon was used in this look.
The darkness you see on the crease and inner corner is the Carbon eyeshadow.
Can’t find this look on Style.com where did you get your photos from?
