Gray and Gold EOTD

I used a gray matte eyeshadow in this Eye of the Day (EOTD) called “Copperplate”. This MAC eyeshadow is a great buildable shade — you can apply it lightly on your outer V and crease to create a nice daytime look, and then add more to your outer V to quickly make your look more dramatic for nighttime.

1. Apply MAC Paint Pot in “Soft Ochre” on entire lid.
2. Apply MAC Pigment in “Golden Lemon” (dry) on lower lid and blend on and just above crease.
3. Use a gray eyeshadow like MAC E/S in “Copperplate” on outer V and blend along crease.
4. Apply MAC E/S in “Ricepaper” as highlight.
5. Line upper lash line with a black color, like Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner in “Black Ink”.
6. Curl your lashes and apply mascara to both your upper and lower lashes.

   Very nice- yellow tones and golds are so often overlooked in makeup, but it really zaps life into eyes with the contrast!

   Thanks Valeree! I love gold eyeshadow — I’m thinking about wearing it during my graduation ceremony in 2 weeks.

   wow this is the exactly what I’ve been looking for !
   I thought that grey colour would not go along with yellowish colours.
   it looks just fine !
