Lately I have been less afraid to experiment
with my eye make-up. Usually I just put a matte brown eye shadow all over my
lid and add a few coats of mascara and I’m good to go. Now I have been playing
more with shimmery shadows on my upper eyelid, as well as my lower lash line,
and have also started using more liquid eyeliner too.
Today I felt inspired by the sunny weather and wore
only shimmery shadows on my eyes, black liquid eyeliner and a hint of red on my
lips.
Products used:
- Rimmel Fix & Perfect face primer
- Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum foundation, shade 55
- Rimmel Wake Me Up concealer, True Ivory
- Essence Fix & Matte translucent loose powder
- Bourjois Chocolate Bronzing powder, 52
- Bourjois Little Round Pot eyeshadow in 05 Brun
- Sleek Oh So Special eye shadow pallete (I have swatched the colours I used on the picture)
- Barry M brown kohl pencil
- L’Oreal Super Liner Perfect Slim liquid eyeliner in Intense black
- Revlon Grow Luscious Plumping mascara
- Burt’s Bees Replenishing lip balm
- Rimmel Kate Matte lipstick, 107
After applying my primer and foundation with a
Real Techniques buffing brush, I put on concealer to cover up some blemishes I
had and also to hide my undereye circles. I also used it to highlight the
bridge of my nose and my forehead and then I set everything with the
translucent powder. Using my bronzer I lightly contoured my face and then moved
on to my eyes.
I applied the Bourjois eye shadow all over my
lid, used my bronzer as a crease colour and lined my eyes with the liquid
liner. On my lower lash line I used the three shimmery shades from my Sleek palette.
The dark brown one I put in the outer third, in the middle I put the rose gold
one and in the inner third I put the gold one. What I love about the gold
shimmery shadow is that it actually changes its colour depending on the light –
it goes from lavender to gold and that gives a lot of dimension to my
eyes. After that I lined my lower and
upper waterline with my kohl pencil, curled my lashes and put on a few coats of
mascara. Finally, I on my lips I mixed my lip balm with my matte red lipstick
by Rimmel to get a very soft and subtle berry lip.
I really like the way this make up look turned
out and I will definitely be using more shimmer on my eyes from now on!
