Bronzed Eyes (Feat. Nars Duo in Isolde)

It's always this time of year that I begin to change my everyday make-up routine. Whilst summer is just around the corner, now is the time I begin to look for something much more golden and bronzy to incorporate into my makeup. I have been testing out lots of new eyeshadow shades, and these ones are the best I have tried to this create this simple everyday look.




























This image is the overall look (that looks a lot more dramatic than when on the eye!) which I have tested it out on my hand so you can get a clear idea of what the eye look looks like and how the colours have been blended together.




























Products used: Mac Mineralize Skin Finish in Dark Tan, Nars Duo in Isolde, Kiko Single Eyeshadow in Infinity, Mac Eyeshadow in Charcoal Brown, Blackout from the Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette, Rimmel Smoke 'N' Shine pencil in Copper Bling and Benefit They're Real Eyeliner in Black.

To start the look, take your bronzer of choice - I used the Mac Mineralize Skinfinish in Dark Tan - onto the crease, and blend to create a transitional shade.

Following this, taking the lighter shade out of the Nars Duo, pat this with your finger all over the lid, focusing on the inner half and centre of the lid. Then, using the darker shade, place on the outer half of the eyelid.

Using a warmer toned eyeshadow, take a smaller blending brush and blend into the crease, not bringing it too high. The bronzer still needs to be visible. In the very edge of the outer eyelid, blend a dark matte brown to create definition.

Line the upper lash line with a coppery brown pencil eyeline, and slightly bring down to the lower lash-line to create a smokey affect. On the middle to outer part of the lash line, place a black eyeliner to create a stronger definition. To set the liquid liner, using an angled eyeliner brush and take a matte black shade to go over the line you have just created.

Add any highlight of your choice to the inner corners and brow bone, add some mascara and the look is complete.

Here is the finished look on the eye:
