FOR EYES: Eyelasses Are Sexy


Today friend Steve Santagati posted a question on Facebook. He  just did a spot with Mario Lopez on Extra. Steve was sporting a pair of glasses. He looks great in those glasses! The Question is "Do men look sexy in glasses"?
My answer: Both men and women can look very sexy in glasses. You just have to find the right ones for your personal style. Think about your wardrobe. Are you classic,trendy,casual?  

Some salespeople are skilled at helping to find a great frame for your face shape and coloring. Bring a good friend with you whose taste you respect. Go to more than one store to shop. Snap pics of yourself with the possible choices. Go home  and review the pics in the various frames and sleep on it. 

You don't have to own just one pair. Think sporty + business pair. Invest in the extra features such as the thinner lens, invisible bifocals. This allows the the eyes to pop out behind the specs. Glasses draw attention to the face. Groom impeccably!

Below is a great pic from a  series of ads that I did with artist  Marilyn Minter for Tom Ford. Marilyn Minter's  images are very luscious and the Tom Ford's optical collection is 
"out of control" beautiful. Model Cintia Dicker looks super chic and sexy in the picture below. You can use a lot more mascara with eyeglasses, but not too heavy on the eyeshadow and look for a shadow with a little shimmer to add sparkle to the eye.... 
Eyeglasses draw attention to the mouth. Go for a bit of moist lipcolor. I used a black lip gloss here. Very daring,not dowdy!

i like the way you use the red mascara and her blue eye. how do you decide what to put on the model when you do the makeup? who decide to put black lips?

Hi Lisa,
I used black to add balance and power. I wanted the lips to reflect the sexy, chic Image of the Tom Ford glasses. I usually come to a photo shoot with tons of makeup,equipment and an opened mind and work spontaneously with the energy and visuals provided by the creative team.
Thanks for asking!

What about the red mascara? How do you decide to do such a thing? You are just sitting there and think, red mascara? Do you have to get that approved? I mean, red mascara is not a common thing.

Cintia Dicker, the model has naturally red hair and freckles. I just enhanced her lashes to compliment her hair. Everybody loved it.
