Makeup Don't: Be Afraid to Experiment
Just like we experiment with orange lips and dewy skin, experiment with your eye makeup looks — and glasses.

Makeup Do: Enhance Your Features
Often we treat makeup as a means of covering up, rather than bringing out. (Hey, it's not the right attitude to have, but it happens.) Use your glasses to enhance the features you like, not to cover up your face. For example, this model's navy frames bring out her blue eyes. And the sleek, wider frames highlight high cheekbones. Sometimes the best makeup for glasses are your glasses (who knew?).
