So Vogue isn’t totally sold on the “water equals beauty” trick that models discuss all the time. But we’re still a fan of the old H2O because it’s just so good for you. During a photo shoot, one editor corralled Chanel Iman and Lakshmi Menon for a few hidden beauty secrets. There’s the necessary Smith’s Rosebud Salve in Chanel’s bag, which is her must-have, and the perfect cream for Lakshmi: Dr. Hauschka’s Rose Day Cream. The real lesson here is just how to use kohl for those sexy smoky eyes that are just to die for. “The only thing I’m really good at is how to use kohl, because as an Indian girl, I grew up with it. Apply it to the upper and lower lash lines—just a little smudge under your eyelid—and then close your eyes and gently rub them together. You get the sexiest smudge,” she says. And there’s your makeup tip for Friday night.
