Re: Eye Shadow Combinations
one of my favorite looks right now, if you have the spiced chocolate quad from cult of cherry, is nanogold on the browbone and very inner corner, top lid and bottom tearduct, with brash all over the top lid and lining the bottom lashline.. with nocturnelle in the crease. i use carbon to deepen the outer corner, and expensive pink to blend nocturnelle into the nanogold on the browbone and also to blend brash and nanogold at the inner lid. it looks beautiful and layered, because the expensive pink brings out the pinky purple in nocturnelle and brash brings out the bronze reflects in expensive pink.
some other combinations i use a lot are:
forgery in the tearduct, gesso on the inner lid, steamy on outer lid and blended into the crease, cool heat to deepend the crease, stormwatch for the outer v. jardin aires to highlight. if i want to make this more dramatic i'll use carbon instead of stormwatch and create a very sharp angle shape on the outer corner.. i get lots of compliments on this look
jardin aires pigment all over lid and browbone, coquette in the crease with contrast on the outer lid blended into the outer crease and carbon smudged along the bottom and top lashline and lightly into the outer crease. this is my standard smoky eye look.
the simplest look i've ever worn but i got SO many compliments on, was crystal avalanche on the lid and inner corner blended down to the tearduct, electric eel on the middle lid, and carbon in the crease and outer lid. i used blue peep fluidline to line my bottom lashline and smudged carbon into the bottom outer corner.
