For today's post I decided to do something a little different which I haven't really seen anyone else do before (correct me if I'm wrong!!). When I first ventured out into the world of makeup and started using more than just mascara and powder, eyeshadow was one of the first things I decided to buy. I was always drawn to the more pinky shades as I found them so so easy to wear and apply, and I still reach for them frequently today. There's just something about them which brightens up the eye and I love that they can easily be worn on their own for a more subtle look, or built up with a darker shade in the outer corner and a soft matte brown through the crease (one of my go-to looks). Below I have listed some of my favourite ones, with both high-end and high street included. I will apologise now for the quality of the photos, some of them look very different on here than they do in person!
1. Sin from the Urban Decay Naked palette
2. Shade 2 from the MUA Undressed palette
3. Benefit Creaseless Cream Shadow in RSVP
4. Maybelline Colour Tattoo in Pink Gold
5. Kitten from the Stila In The Light palette
6. Perfect Storm from the Sleek Storm palette
7. Toasted from the Urban Decay Naked palette
8. Collection Work the Colour Eyeshadow Pencil in Vintage Blush 3
9. Minky from the Soap & Glory The Perfect Ten palette (was limited edition at Christmas but you can still get it in the Lid Stuff quad in Off The Wallflowers)
10. Shade 3 from the Makeup Revolution Iconic 3 palette
If I had to pick my favourite out of these it would probably have to be the Benefit one just because I am a huge fan of cream shadows, I love that they are so easy to apply, need no primer and no brushes either. The Maybelline Colour Tattoo is a great budget alternative to this though, although it is slightly pinker and darker in tone, it's still really pretty.
I hope you all enjoyed this post :) Let me know if you would like to see my favourite eyeshadows of any other colours or any other suggestions for posts I could do.
Thanks for reading!
