try it tuesday - eyeshadow tutorial

This is an eyeshadow tutorial I pinned on Pinterest. I have both the Naked and Naked 2 Eyeshadow palettes. I love those palettes-- the colors are so pretty and the shadows are highly pigmented. BUT I feel like I always use the same one or two colors, the same ways.  Here was the inspiration picture from Iworeyogapants.  She also uses one MAC color as a highlight, but I just blended Naked and Virgin from the same palette instead.




She calls it an every day eye look.  Personally, I am far too lazy to do liquid eye liner as an everyday look, but I tried this look for church this past Sunday.  (I also pinned her smokey nighttime look, using the same palette, but I haven't tried that one yet.) 

 



It was pretty hard to get a picture of my eyeshadow that wasn't embarassingly awkward (all of the closed eye ones I attempted were pretty humiliating).  Overall, I liked the way it turned out.  The darker brown in the corner and crease didn't really come across on camera but I thought looked quite pretty in real life.   Ryan gave me a spontaneous compliment on my makeup, so I guess it was a step up from my usual Sunday look.
