Holiday Makeup Inspired by 60s Stars!

Model and influencer Elnaz channels four cinema stars. Her secret? Desio colored contact lenses! Elnaz Golroh, a makeup artist, influencer, and model with over 4 million followers, and ambassador for numerous fashion and beauty brands, embodies Brigitte Bardot, Sharon Tate, Marylin Monroe, and Sofia Loren, four 60s film divas whose charm and style have inspired and continue to inspire women worldwide.

The resemblance between the model and the stars is striking, thanks to the style details that made them famous – from Marilyn’s airy platinum blonde bob to Brigitte Bardot’s smudged-eye effect, from Sofia Loren’s intense and sensual cat-eye to Sharon Tate’s voluminous hairstyles – and the use of Desio colored contact lenses, produced and distributed by Qualimed, to faithfully replicate the stars’ eye colors.

A favorite accessory of Elnaz, she often uses them during photo shoots. “Portraying these beautiful women, who have become true style icons in the collective imagination, was incredible, and I must say I had a lot of fun,” says Elnaz. “To get Marilyn’s blue eyes, I wore Salty White, one of this year’s colors launched by Desio and included in the 10th Anniversary box.

The total white design of the lens gives an intense and bright blue even to those with dark or very dark eyes like mine.

To portray Sofia Loren, who has large eyes with a characteristic elongated shape emphasized by a very bold cat-eye, I used Delicious Honey, one of my favorite two-tone shades from the Attitude collection. I often wear them during shoots and in everyday life because they brighten the gaze. No radical look change, but a small “secret” to naturally intensify the eyes. For Sharon Tate and Brigitte Bardot, I wore Pepper Grey, the other 2021 novelty. The perfect color to evoke the intensity and sweetness of Sharon Tate or the playful sensuality of BB.” Elnaz’s stunning images show that, with Desio lenses, one can play with their look without health risks.

The lenses, made from safe, tested materials well-tolerated even by sensitive eyes, are high-quality products certified by the CE and approved by the FDA. A fashion accessory to flaunt for a special occasion or to wear every day as an alternative to traditional contact lenses or glasses, Desio lenses can be made in a “plano” version (without diopters) or with diopter correction for astigmatism, myopia, and hyperopia. Desio’s plus? A wide range of colors combined with a natural effect! Even while changing eye color, the result is so realistic and natural that it’s really hard to tell they are colored lenses!

There are many reasons to wear them… To transform into a cinema diva, as Elnaz did, or simply to emphasize the gaze by choosing a shade lighter or darker than the natural one. In any case, the wow effect is guaranteed. If you too are tempted to change your look, then Desio is the brand for you! The colored contact lenses are available for sale on the website www.desiolens.eu and in the best optical shops. Article appeared in Vogue.
