If you have been following my blog for a while, you have probably noticed I don't tend to wear anything but brown, taupe and gold shades of eyeshadow. Well yesterday I found this sparkling eye pencil in the shade Charcoal from Avon in my stash and thought it might go nicely with the Hit the Town smudge pot from ELF.
Off I went to create a new eye look for myself, I have to say I was quite happy with the way it came out and I really liked it, hubby even noticed my eyes when he came in from work!
I started off with the Charcoal pencil and colored about half of my eyelid, starting on the inner corners. Then I took the Hit the Town smudge pot and an eyeshadow brush and put that on the outer half of my eye lid. Then I had to go find a black eyeliner from my stash and came across Rimmel Scandaleyes in Black, holy smokes what an amazing eyeliner! It is so creamy and glides across the lid and it's waterproof! It lasted all day even on my waterline, new favorite black liner! I lined pretty much all around my eye for a more dramatic look. I finished off my look with a black mascara from ModelCo. If you follow me on Instagram you probably seen this look on there yesterday and I mistakenly put Models Own instead of ModelCo, my bad LOL :)
Here are some swatches of the products I used; Rimmel Scandaleyes, Avon Big Color Dazzlers Sparkling Eye Pencil in Charcoal and ELF Smudge Pot in Hit the Town.
I don't think I could get away with wearing this eye look for a day time look, but I think it would be great for a night out!
I don't have any blog posts scheduled for the rest of the week, so is there anything that you would like to see from me this week? If so let me know in the comments :)
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Gorgeous!!!! You should do that more often!!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Lizzy! I will for sure be doing this look again, it was so easy to do :)
DeleteBeautiful!! I've never tried Rimmel's eye liners, but now I have to!
ReplyDeleteThank you Dionne! They are amazing, I have one in nude and it's just as creamy as the black one and they are only $3.97 at Walmart :)
DeleteLike I said yesterday on IG - Beautiful ! But its fun to see how you did it. I'm surprised Avon called that color charcoal... It seems more silver?
ReplyDeleteThanks Jasmine! Yeah bad choice for the name, more silver than charcoal ;)
DeleteThat looks great! And holy moly, that liner--it looks a lot more expensive than $3.97!! Great job :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Martha! I know, right? It is the nicest eyeliner I've used :) I won the 2 that I have and when I went looking for the price of it, I was shocked. I went out Friday and bought a brown one LOL
