So here we are, the last of my Summer Edit posts! I've decided to finish up with my favourite summer eye shadows that I've been loving over the last few months. I find the warmer months are such an in between season when it comes to eye shadow; during the day you don't want to look too overdressed but at night you still want to look made up, but with a kind of "oh... my eyes? Yeah I just threw that together" vibe. Although I like to experiment with lots of different colours and makes of eye shadow, there are certainly a few I have naturally gravitated towards recently, so I thought I'd share these favourites with you!
Makeup Revolution Redemption Palette - Iconic 1
The perfect Naked 1 dupe, I really loved this palette for summer evening looks. The dark blue shade just works so well with the lighter pink shades and is such a breath of fresh air from black and brown. My go to look incorporated the lighter pinks for the corner, a darker pink for the lid and then the dark blue for the outer crease.
Makeup Revolution Redemption Palette - Iconic 3
And here we have the perfect Naked 3 dupe! In contract to the Iconic 1, I really liked using this for day time looks. The coppery pinks and purples were something a little different and really brightened up my summer makeup. I found I gravitated towards the dusty pinks and silvery purples the most.
Maybelline 24 Hour Colour Tattoo - On and On Bronze
This is a gorgeous shimmery bronze that compliments all eye colours. The cream consistency makes it so easy to apply in a rush too; dab your middle finger in the pot and blend away. I swear this product was made for the lazy girl in all of us?!
Makeup Revolution Baked Mono Eye Shadows - Heavenly & Galactic
I saw my bestie Jade wearing this combo the other day and I was SO jealous. Even though I had the same shadows at home in my makeup drawer! These two were made for each other, I used Heavenly on my lid and then used the golden coppery shade of Galactic to blend into the crease. I actually think Heavenly is the perfect light shimmery colour to be worn on it's own too.
So there we have it, my final post for Summer! Although I'm a bit sad it's pretty much over, I'm really looking forward to Autumn.... I love a good knitted jumper and my tweed jacket is starting to look lonely in the wardrobe on it's own.
I hope you liked my Summer Edit posts!
Lots of Love,
