Seeing the beauty trends descend on us from the runways for the last few seasons, I've been feeling an overall sense of deja vu, a la Bill Murray in Groundhog Day. There's just some trends that seem to be here to stay, at least for fall anyway – the bold lip, the smokey eye and the statement brow, to name a few. Another to add to the list is the bronzed eye, which never seems to go out of style and has really become a new classic. And I for one, couldn't be happier about it. But rather than an all-out copperized eyelid, I like to add just a smidge of bronze to the lashline with a shimmery-brown pencil and my pick of choice currently is Lancome's Crayon Kajal in Amber Night from the fall 2008 Maharani Jewels collection. Amber is an apt description for this crayon, since it's a really lovely burnt copper shade that verges on a rust (don't let the photo fool you - it really doesn't do it justice). It looks really subtle and flattering applied just to the upper lids and so much more interesting than basic black.
