My Valentines day picks, eyeshadows for smokey eyes

Well with Valentines day just around the corner for those of you lucky enough to have an admirer who wants to take you out, well youl want your make up to be just right.

But I hear you say do I go for the smokey look, dramatic or pretty.

Well here are some ideas ive researched for a smokey look and  the key to the perfect smokey eye is proper blending. You want to make sure colors are blended together flawlessly. Also, it's important to pair light base colors with rich dark colors. Nice mixes include: Soft gold base with deep purple on top, champagne base with bright blue and peach base with green hue etc.

violet romantic

Gris dandy

The above shades from Bourjois would be perfect for a smokey look, but dont forget if playing up the eyes then you need to keep your lippy more subtle.

Mac Soiree nail polish from the Cham pale range

Hi everyone, a little late posting this post, sorry. Not been to well with the dreaded flu like bug (poor me) and have been nursing myself better.

Anyway Macs latest Ltd edition reange was cham pale I got three things, two paint pots and one nail polish in Soiree, which is a very pale gold colour.

At first I wasnt too keen as it seemed a very pale gold, but I have to say its now grown on me.

One thing I did find is I took it off tonight and it seemed stubborn, it really didnt want to come off, weird, not sure if any one else has had the same prob.

Anyway thought ide post a few pics here of the varnish.

By the way, have you seen the new Mac Ltd edition range coming out in Feb I think, its wonder woman, and I cant wait, being a sucker for cute packaging and remembering wonder woman when I was a child lol, then im sure to love it.
