If you trust the forecast, this winter promises to be another cold one. So, in the spirit of “If you can’t beat ’em, join ’em,” we’re embracing the icy trend. Estée Lauder and its capsule collection with Victoria Beckham, Glossier, and Gucci—whose Magnetic Color Shadow Mono in Liquid Silver was used here by the makeup artist Damian Garozzo—have created an avalanche of shimmery eye shadows. Lest you end up looking like the Abominable Snow-woman, we suggest taking Garozzo’s advice and frosting just one feature. “Less is more here,” Garozzo says. But don’t hold back on the mascara. “It not only frames the eye, it keeps it from looking too chalky.” No one wants a whiteout.
