I’ve never been a fan of eye shadow, mostly because I didn’t know how to put it on or whatever. I’d see pictures of girls with dark smokey eyes and have no idea how to recreate it; any attempts I made just gave me a very panda like appearance.
I’ve decided to try and learn the art of eye shadow, and while I’m not nearly there yet I am getting better. This is just a simple look I tried out and really liked! Clearly, I could not be bothered to straighten my hair when I took these pictures. Oh well.

I really like the Naked Basics 2, I think matte shadows are a lot easier to wear and the cool tones really brings out the colour of my eyes. I am also in love with the Urban Decay Perversion mascara! It makes my lashes so thick and long and generally lush, which is hard to find in a mascara I swear! Definitely see the buzz around Urban Decay.
