I thought I'd do a quick post on three of my favourite eyeshadows for an evening smokey eye look. All three of these just happen to be high end but I'm sure you could find good dupes in any of the cheaper brands.
I'll start with the Estee Lauder Pure Color Eyeshadow in 76 Midnight Star, this is a deep navy blue colour with some tiny sparkles in it and it's gorgeous for a smokey eye, I like to do smokey eyes with colours other than grey sometimes just to mix it up.
Next is the Lancome Color Design Eyeshadow in Strass Black 601 which sounds quite scary but it's not that dark really so it can be quite a light grey or black depending on how you apply it, if you want it black then I find it's best to use it wet. This also has a slight sparkle to it (I love sparkles).
Last but not least is the Chanel Illusion D'Ombre 84 Epatant it's a cream based eyeshadow quite similar to the Maybelline Color Tattoos but with more of a mousse like texture and the colour is just amazing! It comes with a little Chanel eyeshadow brush to apply the product and it's so cute, I love it! The eyeshadow colour is metallic grey/silver with yep you guessed it a hint of sparkle!
I never normally buy high end eyeshadows as I find that cheaper brands can be just as good but these three were all given to me as gifts. I really should put them on my eyes to show you but I'm doing this post while my little boy is sleeping so I'm a bit pushed for time but I'll try and do that next time! Which eyeshadow is your favourite for smokey eyes? Do you prefer high end or drugstore? Let me know, I love to hear from you :) xx
