Real Housewives of Atlanta and the Frosty Brow Highlight

By on October 12, 2010 in Archive, Celeb Beauty

Let me tell you the beauty trend among the Real Housewives of Atlanta.  Flawless makeup? No. Weave? Kind of, but no. It’s a frosty brow highlight. There is nothing wrong with it,this is simply an observation. Nene’s artist has perfected it. There is a significant amount under her brow, but it’s blended like no other.  It makes you want to actually wear a frosty highlight. At Kandi’s concert, Cynthia Bailey’s brow highlight was a slight wash of frost. Lovely. Kandi had an exaggerated (super frosty, super beige [ick]) highlight, but it was stage makeup, so she gets a pass.

I don’t even have the time to tell you what Phaedra’s makeup does to me.  Now I will say this.  If she paid for someone to do her makeup, she would do more good burning her money in her own car.  If she does it herself, she is going for the obvious RHOA style, and she’s on the right path.  If she wasn’t on tv, I would appluad her efforts.  But since she is on tv, I just want her to find someone to do her makeup. Or better yet, someone to show her how to do her own makeup. I don’t mean to stray from the highlight, but the lid colors are either too bright and not properly blended, or the crease is too much. And the white liner on the inner rim is just overkill.  Her makeup just looks too dusty for tv.
She looks so much better in this image! Come on Phaedra, keep up the good work!! Yes, makeup is my thing.  I’m not going to sit here and say that I could do that much more of an outstanding job doing my makeup. The difference between her and I as she has the funds (or she acts like she does) to pay to look amazing.   If she has all this money, fly Sam Fine or Tia Dantzler down for a day. As for a cheaper alternative, I know there is some out of this world artist in Atlanta that is on the verge of moving to NYC or LA to do celebs or something. Atlanta’s a big city, I know there is somebody. Or, take the Sheree route and stay classic all the time with foundation, lashes, liner and a good lip. Either way, she has options that she is not taking advantage of.
This isn’t a gossip blog, so I’m not going to bash her personality (although I really want to).

Sigh.

    I'm glad I'm not the only one. Phaedra's makeup is a HOT MESS, maybe Dwight is her makeup artist because a true professional would never let her go on TV looking like that, whereas the other ladies are on point . I love RHOA :)

  • Fincharlene

    That ghetto, 1992 prom type mess of an eye is making my brain ache.

    I agree, her make is horrible. I noticed that right off the bat, like ” who does her make up?”

  • Erin Scandalous

    Nothing wrong with a frosty highlight, so long as the rest of your eye/face isn't frosty like a snowman.

    There's no excuse for janky looking makeup on television. None. At all.

  • Erin Scandalous

    :::::clutching pearls::::: I was watching a RHofATL marathon a couple wks ago and I was thinking her makeup is jacked! Glad it wasn’t just me. Phew!

  • Crystal

    I’m so glad you said this, every week when I watch I am in awe of how crazy her eyes look. I was starting to think it was just me….thank god its not!!

    Good thing you pointed it out. I don’t really watch the show religiously but there are a few times that I have seen it. I know there’s something “wrong” but I can’t seem to find it. Now seeing those photos gave me an answer.

    I think that Phaedra’s makeup is criminal. Her eyeshadows are outrageous and almost never blended properly. Her lips make her look like Fat Albert’s Mushmouth. She has not learned the fact that there is a correct way to wear lipgloss even when you have extra full lips.

  • T-Money!

    I agree! I think the colors she chooses are popping but whoever is applying them has no clue of what they’re doing! Blend! Blend! Blend!
