My ongoing quest to play with a new mascara had me experimenting with a bit of color. Max Factor’s Vivid Impact Highlighting Mascara was a nice surprise in that it wasn’t that vivid (at least on my dark brown lashes). And that’s exactly what I wanted.
Think highlights are just for hair? Not anymore. It’s a new double-ended mascara that first defines with a base coat, and then highlights lashes and draws closer attention to the eyes. Invented by Pat McGrath, who revealed this mascara at the Fall/Winter 2007 Doce & Gabbana show.
I first tried the Karat Brown - which is highligted by a nice pop of gold. And then settled on my favorite which is the Burning Bordeaux - which is highlighted by a subtle dash of pink.
There are a few avante-garde combos, like blue and pink. Lash Away!

Want it.

Bonus tips:
For green or hazel eyes- try Burning Bordeux shade to make the color of eyes pop
For blue eyes- Try 24 Karat Brown to make Blue eyes pop and add a light, gold tint to lashes (need to emphasizes gold lightens lashes)
For brown eyes- All shades work, especially the black and pink combo to make eyes pop
For all- The most versatile is Moonlit Black (black/silver combination).
