Makeup artist Beth Bender, who has created many a glam look says that many of the photographers she has worked with lately are all over this look. Liv Tyler was just a baby in the ’80s, but her eyes reveal a different story. To get Liv’s look Beth says to rim the eyes with a plum eyeliner and smudge with a soft brush to diffuse the lines. Try Bare Escentuals Buxom Big & Healthy Insider eyeliner in Amethyst.

How to get '80s glam smoky eyes like a pro

Using a steel blue or violet eye shadow, sweep over the lids, and blend with a lavender shadow from the inner corner to the center of the eye on the top and bottom.  Check out OMG! and TDF from beth bender beauty.
A peach blush gives cheeks a beautiful flush. “Start by applying it over the apples and slightly up, toward the hairline,” says Beth. Check out Sweet Cheeks Blush in Glow from beth bender beauty.  Since pink or red lips look dated with blue or lavender shadow, Beth prefers to use a berry lip stain. Her fav is Laura Mercier lip stain in Mulberry. “Use your fingers for a more natural finish, and add a touch of clear gloss to finish ” she says.

To kick off a bright 2010 of health, balance and longevity, 28 spas in 28 cities have whipped up their most decadent day-at-the-spa packages, and in partnership, Spa Week is giving them away to 28 lucky winners across North America to be used April 12 – April 18, 2010.

As always, the goal of Spa Week is to introduce a new generation of consumers to the benefits of a healthy lifestyle by opening up the spa industry to the masses. Spa Week has spent the last 6 years turning “wellness” from a mere buzzword into a healthy reality, and now we seek to spread the message farther and wider than ever.
