My biggest weakness when it comes to cosmetics is eye shadow palettes, so when the big high-end companies bring out their new Holiday collections I am always tempted to purchase one of them.
On the other hand I really don't need any more eye shadows, so I decided to try to shop my stash and come up with a similar idea I can use over the season, instead of buying more stuff that is not used.
Dior Christmas 2014
Nail polish in Gold shock - Eye shadow palette in 756 Golden shock
So this is what I came up with:
With flash
The body shop eyeshadows in 13 and 39 - both matte, one off white and the other black (I trew in a black to deepen the purple coulour.
Mac blackberry
Nicole by OPI - Selena Gomez in kissed at midnight
EGO eye shimmer (no colour indicated)
Maybelline eye shadow in 610 silken taupe
Bourjois eye shadow loose pigment in 01 regard praline rosé
And swatched:
Swatches without flash
Compared with swatches from the Dior golden shock eye shadow palette (you can see swatches on the blog Mostly Sunny) the purple and sparkling gold are not as pigmented, but I am quite sure you can get a similar result with these products.
The nail polishes are both clear top coats with gold glitter particles, the difference being that the Nicole by OPI has regular cut glitter particles and a bit of silver particles while the Dior more of a irregular particles only in gold colour.
Thank you for reading,
Ella
