As the well groomed boy with perfectly parted, brown, and gelled hair, gazed across the noisy cafeteria his eyes became glued on one particular girl. This was no ordinary 8th grader, for her bright blue eyes seemed to be a beacon of bright light among the sea of bland eyes in the cafeteria. Do you want your eyes to command this type of attention or do you want to blend in with a white wall?
This week I went around school and surveyed 50 NIS students for their opinions about different perspectives of eye makeup. This week the question was whether they liked the Natural Look, Bold Look, or you just simply did't care about makeup. The Natural Look won with 27 votes, the Bold Look got five votes, and not caring got 18 votes. Personally, I love the Natural Look for teens not only because it brings out one's true beauty, but it doesn't "Cake" your eyes. No one finds it attractive when it looks like there is purple frosting smeared on your upper eye lid. The "Swaggalicious Girls" and I have a motto "Eat cake, don't be it," I think it speaks for itself. Be your own kind of be-you-tiful.

Since the majority of the students preferred the ''Natural Look", I was sure to get some good quotes, and opinions from the students.
Why do you like the "Natural" look?
Meghan Waterman: "I like this better than the bold look, because for me natural is always the way to go."
Sabrina Tiscareno: "I love this look, not only does it look beautiful but it doesn't put the label 'fake' all over you. Less is more."
Genesis Jimenez: "Natural makes me look like a cow... just saying."
Now these are the opinions for being "Bold and for simply not caring about makeup." Why do you not care about makeup?
Grace Dudden: "I'd rather sleep longer than wake up earlier to put makeup on."
Diana Hernandez: "It just looks like every girl is trying to be older than they really are."
Arianna Thom: "I don't feel like putting it on, it makes me feel fake."

Why do you like Bold makeup?
Genesis Jimenez: "Mmm, because it adds a POP of color to your face!"
Courtney M: "It's different, and the world needs a little more Pazzaz!"
