Welcome to Day 6 of Mineral Madness, and today, I have dared to venture into the world of bright blue eyeshadow! If you want to see a true blue swatch, check my haul post.
As far as this look goes, however, I decided to take a more toned down route, as usual. I started by patting on a Shiro Cosmetics shade, TARDIS, on the outer 2/3 of the lid. With bareMinerals’ Nude Beach, I blended out the blue edge towards the inner corner. On the crease, I applied Velvet Charcoal from bareMinerals’ A Vision in Velvet holiday set.
And that’s pretty much it! 🙂 Easy peasy. I used goat hair brushes for this look which throws away the theory I had that synthetic bristles applied mineral eyeshadow better.
On my cheeks, I have Shiseido’s Luminizing Satin Face Color in RS 302, I think. On my lips, I have a NYX Round Lipstick in Peony. Then I just did my brows, business as usual; on my face I have a layer of bareMinerals’ Mineral Veil.
That’s it, folks! We have one more day to go and a post on tips for easier application, at least where my experience is concerned. Hope you are enjoying this series so far. 🙂
Btw, I’ve updated Day 5 with better pictures! Check it out here, if you want to.
Awww I saw this in my Bloglovin and thought AAA Tardis, need to click!
It’s so BLUE when swatched. I have to figure out how to make it as blue when I put it on my eyes.
Hey Carina, I love how you wear this blue! It’s a very smart and subtle way of wearing a brighter color. You blended everything so well!
Thank you, Sunny! Oddly enough, I find the mineral shadows much easier to blend.
TARDISSSS
YESSSSSS
A trendy take on blue. Defs not the Madonna/80’s electric blue that our moms love 😛
Lol I think that’s what scared me away from blues!
