5 Shades of Gold Eyeshadow for the Holidays
There are a few different types of gold–all fun and festive for the holiday season–and here are some of my recent favorites! I’d love to hear yours 🙂
- Makeup Geek Gold Digger — a frosted, orange gold
- Ulta Gold — a shimmery, yellow gold
- Ardency Inn Sunday — a light-medium gold with a metallic finish
- Make Up For Ever D416 Crystalline Yellow — a sparkly white gold
- Ardency Inn Heaven — a metallic, antique gold
Omg Ardency Inn Heaven…soooo gorgeous!
It is!
I’m surprised you don’t have Sephora Girl’s Night Out in here! Though the 2 Ardency Inn shadows are fabulous.
I could have picked 20 golds, haha!
Heaven looks heavenly!
Haha! 😉
For me nothing beats bare minerals connoisseur! Most beautiful gold I have and I’m a sucker for golds 🙂
It’s such a rich shade!
What’s the closest gold shadow to half baked urban decay gold ?

Five beautiful golds, and I don’t have any of them. And I do have a lot of golds.
What are some of your favorites from your stash?
Gold really seems to be the colour this Christmas season. There is nothing better (besides a good taupe) than a lovely gold.
‘Tis the season!
I can’t seem to find a gold that won’t turn mustard-y on me. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Have you tried something like Heaven?
The Ardency Inn shadows just came back into stock on Sephora, and now they’re on their way to me, oops. This post reminded me just how gorgeous they are, and I’m tentatively getting back into eye makeup and decided to get them 🙂
NICE 🙂 Hope you love ’em!
Sephora’s Girls Night Out is definitely a favorite! Other superrich golds like Urban Decay’s Honey (UD, please do with Honey what you did with Perversion and make the shade available in as many products as possible. I’m begging youuuu), Makeup Geek’s Liquid Gold, and Sugarpill’s Goldilux are also nice. MAC’s pigment in Old Gold is also one I love.
That’s a great shade! 😀 And Honey… and Golidlux…
Nice selection. Heaven is so amazing.
It is! So lush.
The Ardency Inn ones are HNNNGH!-worthy, of course, but I’m actually really liking that Ulta one! I think it has a lovely luminous finish, and strikes a nice balance of yellow and white. 🙂
My go-to gold is always UD’s Half-Baked, but that’s partly because it’s one of the few I have. I have some nice Sleek ones too though, and the Lancome Golden Frenzy palette is quite nice (if a little less buttery than it night be).
The formula is SO rich and buttery. Love.
Golds are always so tricky! Some look so good on me (not to toot my own horn or anything) and others just don’t work. Heaven looks gorgeous.
What kind of golds do you feel work best for you?
Ulta Gold looks beautiful. The Ardency Inn one looks really pretty too though. I may need both
At least the ULTA one isn’t too pricey!
Ultra Gold one looks amazing and something that I would like to wear , match the nail polish I am wearing right now. Love the way you do your pictures. Great post xox
Thank you!
4 and 5 are my favorites!
Yay!
