Beauty - in the eye of the beholder?

Who's scared of eyeshadow?

Don't be. Eyeshadow can either make or break your look - literally! When you're not wearing eyeshadow, it's much like flaunting the "unfinished look" where celebs apparently go without concealer (and yet somehow still look like goddesses). Well the point I'm trying to make is... the look will be incomplete. Even if you want it to look like you are not wearing any makeup, you need to be applying a nude eyeshadow to your lids. Why? Because you aren't naturally beautiful, but you want all the other boys and girls to think you are :-P 

Applying nudes to your eyelids will still look natural, but will allow you to use tone to emphasise your eye colour or shape, which ever it is that defines your look, in a subtle way that says; "Yes, I am naturally this hot goddess, now bow before me you puny human".

L'oreal Color Appeal Trio Pro

I think this is a fantastic eyeshadow, especially for newbies. You don't have to worry about  

buying colours that look like they might go, or worry that your shades are too far off or almost the same. In one simple compact, you have everything you need, the right applicators too. This eyeshadow comes in loads of different colours, so you can go anything from Nicole Kidman to Kim Kardashian, what ever pops your toast, and it's so easy, you couldn't go wrong if you were Forest Gump's daughter!

Spice it up

Don't be afraid to play with some colour too. This is the modern age, it's okay to put colour on your eyes, in fact, it's okay to put more than one colour on your eyes. 

Yes ladies, that's right, blue can be worn on the eyes without the red lipstick, leopard print skin tight dress, pink fluffy heels, long red nails and curlers in the hair. Look at how fantastic these eyes look; splashes of blue with other colours, and it works especially well with grey and black. 

Just please people, please, what ever you do, DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT, walk out the house looking like Mimi from the Drew Carey Show!!

Your husband will leave you for your mother, your children will not acknowledge your existence till they've moved out the house and they're sure they haven't suffered any permanent mental scarring, and your dog will run away! Please always ask a child how you look before you leave they house - their honesty knows no bounds. 

Okay ladies (and queer gents) I think you can do this, now get out there and try some eyeshadow.

Have a fab evening, and get that beauty sleep
