Hey Guys!
I really wanted to see what I could come up with using Aniseed from my Sleek i-Candy palette, because it's such an unusual colour with a beautiful shimmer, but red isn't an easy eyeshadow to use!
Unless you're going big and bright, I find it hard to fit into a look, however it does work really well with blue-greeny eyes, and makes them pop!
So, what I've done is added it into a smoky brown look! I hope you like it :)
I used so many different palettes, I don't know where to start! I used Urban Decay Naked and Naked 2 palettes, Sleek i-Candy, Beauty UK palette, Urban Decay Glinda Palette (I used the amazing gold under my lash line) and a single Mac shadow, which came out at Christmas in one of their Duos called Baby it's cold outside.
I used Urban Decay 24/7 pencil eyeliner in Perversion on my waterline and Collection 2000's extreme liner in Black to create a winged look.
Sorry about the slight yellow shadow under my lashes! I have a new light bulb which gives amazing white light but it's in a yellow lamp so it shows up a bit! Will have to get a new white one!
Aniseed left a very pretty glittery finish on my eyelid, I love how it mixed so well with the brown base I used, so it wasn't too red! My lashes are Eylure #100.
Just a few snaps below! I love how my eyes look so bright! Giving the red tint to my brown smoky eye definitely gave them an edge! And I love how the lashes looked in the third photo, love them!
Just a super quick smoky eye for you! I think I need to start doing more looks! I couldn't do them at night because my lighting was too yellow however since I put a new weird curly energy saving light bulb in my lamp, I've got amazing white light! Will definitely be doing more looks in the future!
Hope you like it! x
