Kimberly Guilfoyle's Go-To Eyeliner Look Couldn't Be More Outdated

Kimberly Guilfoyle is known to get loud while giving impassioned speeches, but her voice isn't the only thing jumping out of the television screen. Her makeup is often piled on so heavily that it's hard to tell where her features begin and end. Now, as a longtime makeup artist with over a decade of experience, I'm not afraid of a nice smokey eye, but Guilfoyle's standard look consists of so much eyeliner that it looks unnatural and way out of current style trends.

Guilfoyle has gorgeous blue eyes, but you can hardly see them due to her overload of kohl. Plus, she favors super-black liner, which, combined with black mascara and dark-gray eyeshadow, overpowers her face. Instead, the former prosecutor should learn how to nail winged liner on her hooded eyes. She should also ditch the lower eyeliner and try a subtle smudged eyeshadow in a dark brown, which would open up her features more. While heavy eye makeup used to be in during the Y2K era, the overall trend now is more of a natural look, and Guilfoyle could afford to put the pencil down and try it for herself.

It's perfectly fine to have a go-to look, such as Taylor Swift's signature lipstick, but even the "Anti-Hero" singer switches up her makeup once in a while. As evident by snaps of Kimberly Guilfoyle in 2010, it's clear she's been wearing heavy eyeliner for well over a decade. Back then, however, she used a lighter hand and wasn't overloading her features with outrageous false lashes. Her smokey eye was softer as well, and she didn't shade in her lids almost up to her eyebrows, as is her current style.

At 56 years old, Guilfoyle should soften her makeup in my opinion, as her eyeliner mistakes are making her look older. If she wants to define her eyes, tightlining is always an option, as it brings them out without having to pile on the liner. And instead of a uniform shadow all over her lids, I would love to see her in a gradual smokey eye, which is a subtler way to try the timeless makeup look. She could try a lighter shade in the inner corners — perhaps a shimmery gold to bring out her blue eyes. Then, she can blend a darker-brown color along the outer edges, bringing the shadow up to give her eyes a lift. Ultimately, there is such a thing as too much when it comes to eyeliner, and Guilfoyle would do better with the less-is-more approach to bring out her features more naturally.
