My Everyday Eye Makeup

Hello! I only used to wear mascara on my eyes on an everyday basis, however very recently I have started wearing cream eye shadows. I have my Urban Decay Naked palette which I love for eye shadow, but on a daily basis I find creams a lot easier to blend which is perfect for in the mornings when I don't have a lot of time! I really like the products I use for my eye makeup everyday so I thought I would show you!


Firstly I use Mac Paint Pot in Bare Study. I absolutely love this colour - it is a gorgeous champagne colour with some shimmer in it, but it's not overly shimmery like glitter! I use this all over my eye lid up to the crease and sometimes dab a little in the corner of my eye and along my brow bone. It is the perfect colour for the corner of the eye!


Next I use Benefit Creaseless Cream Eye Shadow in Birthday Suit. This is a slightly shimmery light brown colour with some gold running through it. I apply this to the outer corner of my eye and blend it in and along the crease slightly with my finger. It looks very subtle and just adds a bit more definition to my eye!


Those are the only two colours I use on my eye and I love the combination of them! They are subtle, just adding lovely definition to my eye and they are both gorgeous colours! I then use L'Oreal Carbon Gloss eye liner along my top lash line. I love this eye liner and it was actually in my October Favourites post! When I first bought it I found it quite difficult to work with and didn't use it much, however I have recently rediscovered it and am absolutely loving it! It applies in one or two strokes and leaves a shiny black line which lasts all day!


Lastly I apply my mascara! I love mascara and tend to change them regularly, however the one I am using and loving at the moment is L'Oreal Telescopic False Lash. I have a review of the original Telescopic here which is an amazing mascara, however I much prefer this one now! 


I apply one coat of this mascara to my top lashes and that is my eye makeup complete!


I hope you have enjoyed this post! If you have any requests for other posts then please let me know!

What eye makeup products do you use on a daily basis? I would love to know!
