Recent eye makeup faves XOX


Hiya everyone! So, after my last post, I was asked a few times about my Revolution eyeshadow palette so I thought that I would show you some eye makeup products I have been loving recently. I have shown some of these before, but have rediscovered them and used them in a different way. And just as a side note, please leave any suggestions for post ideas in the comments below, I would love to hear what you would like me to write about. Anyway, here's some amazing eye products! 



Maybelline 24 hour Colour Tattoo in 'On and on Bronze' and 'Pink Gold.'
I know that I have talked about these before, but since the Autumn weather has come, I decided to change up my makeup to fit the season. That was when I rediscovered these. I have fell in love with these again, and this is how I use them. With 'On and on Bronze', I use my finger to put this through the crease, upper lashline and under my eye. Then I blend out with a small eyeshadow brush to create a warm bronzey shade that looks really autumnal. With 'Pink Gold', I use this all over the lid and inner corner of my eye. To ensure they last all day, I set these with eye shadows from my Revolution palette.

Loreal Volume Million Lashes
Apart from my KIKO mascara, I love using this because it is not usually what I will go for. This gives me tons of volume, but normally I would go for a mascara specialising in length. I love using this because my lashes look really fluttery, and it looks so pretty when you layer up the KIKO one and this one together. This is what I have been doing recently.

H&M Eyeliner in 'Black'
I really like the H&M makeup line, especially the new line in the rose gold packaging (which I really want to try). This eyeliner has a really thin, precise applicator, which makes it really easy to get that Zoella-esc cat eye that everyone wants. The product itself is really black, and lasts well when set with black eyeshadow. Also, the lip crayons are really pretty from H&M, and Coke in really stunning colours!

Revolution Redemption pallete in Iconic Elements
I know that I recently talked about this, but I really wanted to talk about the shades and what I use for certain things.
For my everyday eye makeup, I use shade 3 (shimmery champagne) in my brow bone and my inner corners. Then I either take shade 8 or 9 in my crease and  11 along the lashline and under the eyes. For my eyebrows, I use a mixture of 8 and 10, along with Maybellines eyebrow gel. If I wanted to set the Maybelliene Colour Tattoos, I would use 8 for 'On and on Bronze' and 2 or 5 for 'Pink Gold.' For a more smoky look, I would take 6 over the whole lid,12 along the lash line and 11 in the crease and under the eyes. There are so many looks that you can create with this pallete, and it's also a great dupe for the Naked palletes! Please, if you haven't already, go and buy one of the large variety they have!

Thank you for reading, and I hope you enjoyed. Also, I really have been loving reading your guys' posts, so comment below if you would like me to read something you have written and I'll be sure to check it out!
See you soon,
