I'm gonna get flamed for this but what's with the heavy dark eyeliner!!!

[LynneSin]

Geez, she's 60 years old and using eyeliner like she's starting in the next Brittney Spears video. Even I don't wear that heavy black eyeliner on a day-to-day look (maybe in the evenings if I'm going clubbing).

NOW, when I was younger I might have worn more eyeliner and I'm not saying there is an issue with the using the black eyeliner, but it's just so wrong on her - someone should have told her before she went out and was photographed.

Please note: This isn't a dis on anyone who uses heavy dark eyeliner just a comment on how inappropriate it looks on her

[Midlodemocrat]

1. Jeez. Could you at least put a warning in your title?

:eyes:

[livetohike]

2. Maybe she was a "Mod" in the 60's

Edit: image didn't work

Anyway, the style was to apply the eyeliner heavy like that. I guess Harriet is stuck in time.

[ghostsofgiants]

3. Maybe she joined Green Day

[progmom]

4. ...

:spray:
:rofl:

5. i dunno..i think it looks ok

keep in mind i am sure i will be heavily made-up when i am old...so i try to be kind to over made-up old ladies

[LynneSin]

11. You know, I thought the same thing...

...but as I got older, I laid off the heavy makeup. One day you look in the mirror and it just looks freaky especially for daytime. And it's nothing with who you are or how you think, your skin just changes and doesn't handle the makeup the way it use to

[Missy Vixen]

6. Maybe she's an Alice Cooper fan

In the meantime, girlfriend needs a makeover. Stat.

[Shell Beau]

7. Yeah, she needs to lay off the eyeliner!

There is something to be said for subtlety!

[LaraMN]

8. All the classy ladies do it...

[MissB]

9. She had it tatooed on when it was popular.

It is really a bitch to remove tatoos from around the eyes.

[Bunny]

10. She needs to seriously stop with that eyeliner. It's not at all

flattering. Thankfully she got rid of that unfortunate mullet!

[Orsino]

12. So the nomineee has no cosmetic experience, either.

Big deal. I'm sure she's loyal.

[Misunderestimator]

13. It helps to take attention away from the dark, black soul...

behind the eyes. I suppose.

[skygazer]

14. You know, I didn't even see the eyeliner at first

I was recoiling in horror at the hideous growth coming out of the left side of her head.

[Shakespeare]

15. Hell, it looks awful when Tara Reid does it, too.

Ladies: A big raccoon-eye ring around your eyes in kohl-black liner IS NOT FLATTERING. To anybody. Young or old.*

*Except maybe Alice Cooper or the guys from Green Day.

[ghostsofgiants]

22. Tara Reid just looks horrible as it is

She really let herself go, I think. All the party-girl shit and whatnot. Not to mention that hideous boob job.

Sigh...she used to be hot, once upon a time.

[MissMillie]

16. OK... flame away at me

but I don't like the heavy black eyeliner on anyone. :hide:

[xmas74]

17. I've been making comments on the same thing!

Great minds must think alike. As you get older you should drop the black(unless you have fantastic line-free eyes. Black accentuates all lines). She needs to go for a softer brown-especially in her line of work, not line them all the way around (on top and maybe a bit in the lower corner). She should also go for a softer line and smudge it a bit. And she needs to give up the liquid. A medium to dark brown eyeshadow would work wonders as liner for her. It would make her eyes look so much younger!

Now I can quit being so superficial. I hate noticing shit like this! All I could think of was that I'm thirty and I've given up on black eyeliner (maybe for late-night use in a dark club but that's it).

[underpants]

18. Trying to replicate the blank soulless eyes of the (gay) Republicans

Look into their eyes. Look deep into their eyes. Nothign there. No soul. Nothing.

[peekaloo]

19. she's a sad tomato

three miles of bad road.

crush with eyeliner.

[redqueen]

20. I thought the exact same thing!

Almost posted that exact comment in trumad's thread re: her age in GD, sans the "I'm gonna get flamed for this" part.


Maybe she's into heavy metal / hardcore? :shrug: ;)

[Avalux]

21. It looks horrible, and makes her eyes look SMALLER

which is probably the opposite of what she thinks it does. Black eyeliner is fine for a young 'en - not a 60 year old woman.

LOL - look at Bush in that pic. Hungover or what? :rofl:

[miss_kitty]

23. christ

maybe she's going goth.

I guess she wants to accenuate and draw attention to the luggage under her eyes :eyes:

[bridgit]

24. omg i'm serious & NO blue eye shadow she should be rejected...

for make-up transgressions alone but more seriously i'll bet that if she didn't do what she is doing she'd have like two little beady blue marble looking eyes just there kind'a on her face or something :shrug:

what the hell am i talking about; i don't even wear any make-up :rofl:

[SOteric]

25. I suspect she does it to draw the eye away from the bags under her eyes

and upward to the eyes themselves.

[El Fuego]

26. I don't think she would look good under any circumstances

It might be the best she can do.

[LynneSin]

29. I think any woman can look beautiful, even her

she just needs makeup lessons

[El Fuego]

She probably started doing it in her younger days

and she just can't change her habits.

[graywarrior]

27. She needs a makeover, or lessons from...

[DS1]

28. I can't stop looking at that ridiculous "duh - I need to sleep this off"

look on Bush's face

[Bridget Burke]

30. Yes, this is a frivolous topic....

Liner UNDER the eyes is only for the young. After a certain age, we have natural lines there! A gentler color would work better, too.

She should go for good skin condition & subtle colors.

Sometimes, one applies makeup as "war paint"--not simply to improve one's appearance. What was running through her mind?

[Missy Vixen]

31. Okay, I have the solution

I'm taking one for the team.

If Ms. Meiers wants to wear a more flattering look, she needs to click on www.bareescentuals.com. Their makeup is mineral-based. Their eyeliner is easy to apply and flattering to all.

Of course, this is my opinion, and I am a satisfied customer. ;-)
