A Stormy Goldmine.


I decided to share my favourite smokey eye with you guys :) I absolutely love gold eyeshadow, I think because I have green eyes it seems to work really well.  After many reviews a few months back I decided to purchase two of the Sleek I-Divine Palettes from Superdrug.
I am a big fan of the Urban Decay Naked Palettes and Urban Decay eyeshadows in general and I was looking for a cheaper alternative. Along with the two palettes and a L'oreal Colour Infalliable eyeshadow I created this look :)
Debenhams Online - £13.05(10% off)

First up I primed my eyes with Mac Paint Pot in Bare Study, although I don't find it to have much colour payoff it is a great base for keeping my eyeshadow on.
Sleek I Divine Eyeshadow Palettes, Superdrug, £7.99 Each


The two palettes I used from Sleek were the "Oh So Special" and "Storm" Palettes.  If I was to only choose one it would definitely be the Storm Palette.  The only downside to the palettes is that they do not come with eyeshadow names, however I will do my best to give a description of each colour and which palette it came from.



OH SO SPECIAL PALETTE
(Bottom Row, 3rd from right - Outer and Inner Corner)

STORM PALETTE
(Top Row, 3rd from left - Crease)
(Top Row, 4th from left - Lid)
(Top Row, 2nd from left - Browbone)

EXTRAS
Maybelline " The Falsies" Mascara
Maybelline "Eye Studio Lasting Drama" Gel Liner


Last but not least I finished the lid off with this stunning eyeshadow which is the L'oreal infalliable eyeshadow in the colour Goldmine.  It is a gold sparkle eyeshadow and is perfect for creating a party look along with a red lip.  I first tried the infalliable eyeshadows when they were released, I bought the L'oreal voluminous mascara(one of my favourites) and got an infalliable eyeshadow free.  I decided to choose the colour Purple Obsession and was really disappointed by it as it looked beautiful in the jar but looked black when i swatched it, however I tried them again and I absolutely love goldmine :)

Thank you for reading this post :) whats your favourite eyeshadow/palette :) Let me know in the comments :D

  8. Love this shade on you, and love this post, I really appreciate how personal you are with this, thanks. Also totes digging your blog title, crimes of a blonde is catchy ;) So glad I clicked on your comment that led me back to your blog, your posts' contents are info and image juicy so expect to be seeing some regular comments from me. I've just uploaded my first ever outfit post from Paris Fashion Week! I would say it's Parisian-Provoking-Chic and I credit that to the Céline foulard printed flared trousers, I guarantee you'd be mega provoked ;)
