I do my eye makeup first, I know in some people's eyes that's completely wrong and I should be ashamed but that's just how I prefer to do things.
First I apply eyeshadow primer on my lids and a bit on to the crease of my lid.
Then I use a light champagne color that has some shimmer and apply it to my lid.
Next, I take a dark brown and apply it to the crease of my eye.
I then use a darker color, this can be any shade that you like, for me currently I love this dark purple and apply it to the outer corners of my eyes. I know that the purple may not seem like a "light look" but it really isn't that dark and it adds shape and depth to the eye. I then take a fluffy shadow brush and blend. I pull the brown from the crease up and then the dark corner shade out.
Then I curl my eyelashes and use a black eyeliner, followed by mascara on my top and bottom lashes. I then take a white eyeliner and apply it to my lower water line. This gives the illusion of bigger eyes. (Ooo ya big eyes trick)
Now this combination may seem a bit pointless, a moisture filled product and a stay matte product. Let me explain, I use the BB cream more like concealer (under my eyes and on any red spots). I do not apply it to my T zone which is where I have oily skin. I use the stay matte foundation in my t zone and only my t zone, everything else remains bare.
Then I apply a some powder, again only on my T zone.
Next some bronzer to contour my cheek bones.
Finally I apply this blush/highlighter to my cheekbones.
To finish off the look I like to add a spritz of some floral perfume!
I love the colour of the eye shadow! You have a lovely blog :) x

It's nice because it's subtle yet enhances the eyes. Thank you! Xx
