Blue Eyes

pAn entire generation of women whittled blue eyeliner pencils down to nubs during the 1980s, and it's all Princess Diana's fault. Her preference for the colored liner is one of the most iconic—and fittingly rebellious—royal beauty looks in history./p

Headshot of Jenna Rosenstein

Jenna Rosenstein is the Beauty Director at Harper's BAZAAR across both print and digital. While attending NYU, she held internships at Women’s Wear Daily, Bloomingdale’s, Harper’s BAZAAR, and Allure, the latter of which she parlayed into her first job as the Beauty Assistant. She left Allure three years later as the Senior Beauty Editor. She spent a few months at Refinery29 overseeing branded content in the same title, before finally landing back at BAZAAR to manage all beauty content. When she's not testing every lipstick known to mankind, getting zapped by new lasers, or interviewing experts and celebrities, you can find Rosenstein at home in New Jersey with her son, husband, and black cat named Maddie.
