Just ONE eye shadow!
Gotta get ready in a hurry? That was me last night, we went to see 'Inception' and I wanted to keep it quite casual and natural. Here's what I came up with using only one eyeshadow.
What eyeshadow do you wear on its own?
- FACE: Mac Face & Body Foundation (C4) & Rimmel 'Stay matte' pressed powder (001).
- CHEEKS: Benefit 'Hoola' to contour, Mac 'Earth to earth' mineralised blush & Mac 'Strobe cream' to highlight.
- EYES: Mac 'Romp' e/s all over the lid, blended into crease and lower lashline, Bobbi Brown 'Espresso ink' gel liner on upper lash line, Rimmel 'Sable brown' eyeliner on waterline & L'oreal 'Voluminous' mascara.
- LIPS: Pastel lipliner (no14) & Illamasqua 'Explode' sheer lipgloss.
Isn't it amazing that ONE eyeshadow can still look interesting? Usually I would use at least two, but once you blend the colour out well, it already looks like you have a few colours on. This was my first time using 'Romp' eyeshadow on its own, it was a good choice!

But if i am in a rush i use antiqued or sable all over the lid and into the crease , which makes my brown eyes pop and really open with engraved powerpoint and some baby sparks dazzleglass <3

For me it has to be a purple:
Parfait Amour by Mac. But I also like the Mousse eyeshadow in Sassy (a mixture of plum, silver and a bit of gold) by Rimmel because I can get a perfect smoky look and I use my fingers to apply it and to blend so no need to even use a brush.

I haven't worn one eyeshadow alone in a lonnnng time but when I do it's usually a neutral color, like NYX dark brown or MAC cork.
I usually wear MAC all that glitters or satin taupe alone. Quick and easy!

@S.A Thank you! :)
@Mercedes I nearly wore purple then thought 'no' I musn't match my top. Sometimes I like to match & sometimes I don't.
@Sabina I use woodwinked on its own alot too.
@Roxy all that glitters is nice for during the day, I do that too!
Bare Minerals eyeshadows are good to wear by themselves too. They always give a look of having more than one eyeshadow on.
Have you ever tried them?
