How to Get 'A Single Man' Eye - Beauty Blab

Karen Rovinovitz, the founder of Purple Lab and creator of Huge Lips, Skinny Hips lip gloss, dishes on the trials and tribulations of creating your own makeup line. Read her all her Beauty bLab columns here.

If you read my last post, you know I'm obsessed with Tom Ford's film, A Single Man. If you haven't seen it, RUN! Do not walk to the theater! It must been viewed on the silver screen. A breathtakingly stunning emotional story of a gay man in the 60s whose partner dies in a car crash, every moment is art directed to graphic perfection.

And Julianne Moore's makeup. No words! Beyond!



Sixties perfection. Glamorously chic double cat eyes with a thin line in the crease of the lid to give the eye depth and that coveted deep set look.

I sat down with Lashionista Modelista, Purple Lab's peptide-packed liquid liner and tubing mascara duo, to recreate the look. Keep in mind - I really can't pull it off the way Julianne can and the rest of me is not styled in a 60s vibe, but the eye makeup speaks for itself.

See how to do it, in the video above.

And Tom, give me Moore!

Mwah!
