So I was really stuck on what I should do for my
first beauty related blog post and wrote down about a hundred blog post ideas,
which is great as I now have lots of posts lined up. But eventually I decided
on this really simple, glam, smokey eyeshadow look. It was so easy to
create and only in a few steps!
For this look I used one of
my newest additions to my eyeshadow palette collection, the Tarte
Tartlette 2 In Bloom Palette. If you haven't got this eyeshadow
palette in your collection, I highly recommend you invest in it. As soon
as I saw it online I knew I had to get my hands on it, literally all the
colours were right up my alley. Not only are the shadows so pigmented and
buttery, they smell like chocolate too (bonus!!!) and of course, the packaging
is to die for!
for £32.40 or on the Sephora website for $45.
Obviously, if you don't
have this eyeshadow palette, any similar shadows you have will be just as good
to create this look!
So lets get onto the eye look...
Step 1:
After priming my eyes, I
applied the shadow 'CHARMER' all over my mobile lid and brow
bone as a neutral base for all the shadows to blend seamlessly on top.
Step 2:
I applied 'SMARTY
PANTS' just above the crease as a transition shade. This will help the
other darker shadows blend into another nicely.
Step 3:
I then blended the shade 'REBEL' into
the crease for definition and slowly built up the colour to my desired look.
Step 4:
Using a flat shader brush,
I packed on the shadow 'LEADER' all over the lid, then took a
clean fluffy blending brush to blend this shadow into the crease colour.
I repeated this step a few times to build up the colour payoff!
Step 5:
Lastly, I took a mixture of 'CHARMER' and 'FUNNY GIRL' as
a brow bone highlight to tie the look together.
To finish the look, I applied mascara and some falsies (can't live without them!).
Here are some photos of the finished look...
