A fringe benefit of rocking brow-grazing bangsis that your eyes are the focus. (And you can skip a brow appointment now and then)

Case in point— Leona Lewis has lightened her dark tresses and cut bangs that make her beautiful hazel eyes pop in a major way.

Performing at the Fox bs238 Gala Night at Tabloid on Septetmber 30, 2011 in Tokyo, Japan, Lewis was pretty in pink blush and lipstick.

Even skin, winged-out cat eye black eyeliner paired with a flush of pink blush and soft pink lips is a subtle sexy makeup look that works from boardroom to bedroom.
