Hello everyone!
This past week, I posted a poll to my IG story, asking if I should post the details of my latest Instagram post (see below) here on my blog and the answer was Yes!

I'm here today, to break down this look. However, there will be no tutorial or demonstration of this look via video, but I do hope that you still enjoy this post and product breakdown.
Eyes
The star of this look is....(imaginary drum roll!)... L.A Colors Sweet!Sixteen Eyeshadow Palette in Brave.
I will do a full review of this palette at the end of November as I am still playing around and experimenting with the different colours.
This palette provided the majority of the eye look, with the exception of the lid colour..
While there is no video, I have done a bit of a breakdown of the eyeshadows used from the palette, and where they were placed on the eye.

N.B. - The numbers correspond with the respective colours, and not the order in which they were applied.
BASE: I used colour #14 as my all over base to set my Urban Decay Primer Potion, and I mixed colours #15 and #16 as my transition shades.
CREASE: Colours #7 and #12 were used in the crease, and they were blended out with colour #5.
OUTER CORNER: Colours #9 and then #4, where used to add depth and smokiness to the outer corner. I also mixed in a bit of "Rebel" from the Tartlette in Bloom Palette, to enhance the smokiness with some warmth.
LID: I'm wearing Makeup Geek's Pigment in Utopia on top of a glitter glue. My eyes are hooded so without a glitter glue, pigments, and shimmer tend to travel beyond where I typically place them.
In order to blend the pigment with the eyeshadows, I used colour #6 which is very similar in colour to Utopia, and it allowed for a seamless transition from lid colour to outer corner.
LOWER LASH LINE: I smudged L'Oreal Silkissime Eyeliner in Black, with colour #9, and "Rebel" from the Tartlette in Bloom Palette, for smokey definition to finish off the eyeshadow look.
