Its All About The Eyes

Like everyone, I'm a bit little bit boring with eye shadow I love my Naked 2 pallet (really want 3) and I'm all up for trying new eye shadows on the market but I normally stick to the browns and neutral shades that they have for offer. I'm looking at getting some of the Maybelline Colour Tattoo 24hr Cream Eye Shadows. While I was looking into the product I decided to take a look into what colour would suit me best, trying to take a step outside of my neutral box!

So I did a little bit if research for us all....

Most of the stuff I found was based on eye colour...
I have a small problem with this... I have different coloured eyes!

One brown and the other green with a bit of brown at the top! I take this as I can be greedy and choose colours from both categories!

Beautiful brown Eyes- Brown eyes can wear most colours! Woohoo! To brighten the eyes use a blue or green and to add warmth add brown-y orange colours.

I have started to wear more of dark green on my eyes, I have been looking for the right one with just the right amount of shimmer! At the mo I'm loving Avon Colour Trend Duo in Rain Forrest, it was pretty cheap too and seems to last for a long time on my eyes with not creasing etc. I used it with a dark brown in my crease from an old clinque quad.

I'm interested in trying burn orange/brown too!!!

Gorgeous Green Eyes- Plums and purples and deep dark reds are good for you as they are the completely different to the colour of your eyes. This will make your green eyes stand out brighter then ever before.

I have recently been using Bourjour's smoky eyes trio in Rose Vintage. I love the fact you get all three colours to create the look. These have more of a pinky tone but I will be looking for more plummy dark shades soon.

And for you...Baby Blue Eyes out there- Warmer tones will make your blue and grey eyes stand out even more! Go for Corals, browns and warm pinks

Do you use Maybelline Colour Tattoo 24hr Cream Eye Shadows? What colours do you recommend?

Benefit...It's Potent Eye Cream...

Since I was ill before Christmas with tonsillitis and glandular fever I have noticed my eyes being really heavy, puffy and had such dark circles especially when I wake up. I was using an eye cream before but not noticing much difference but then I remembered I had a mini version of Benefit's It's Potent Eye Cream that I had bought in a minis set before Christmas! So I cracked it open and started to use every morning and night.

Benefit say ..."Your eyes can't keep a secret...they're the first to show signs of age & stress" and mine really do, I was so stressed towards the end of last year and that's probably why I got ill so now its time to chill out a bit! 

The eye cream really cool feeling on your skin and has a light texture. You only need a tiny amount so the pot will last for ages. My eyes instantly feel hydrated and a lot brighter once I have used It's Potent. At the moment I still have dark circles but I have noticed them being less obvious since I have been using this product which I am really pleased with! I team it with Benefits Erase Paste to cover the darkenss up!

I will keep you posted with how I'm getting on with It's Potent...
