MAC Groundwork, my everyday one-n-done shadow.
Ooh, that’s pretty! I’ve never seen this shade before. I might have to get it!
It depends…
Since I always do my brows first, it would be Benefit Goof Proof Brow Pencil in Cool Grey. But if brows don’t count in this question, then my first eye product of the year would be MAC Paint Pot in Painterly, because primer is always my second step. But if that doesn’t count either (lol), then my third step is always eyeshadow, and I think I used my Natasha Denona Glam palette on New Year’s Day.
I’m pretty sure it was Charlotte Tilbury’s The Rock Chick, shades 1, 2 and 4.
Clinique Teddy Bear quad.
Natasha Denona Metropolis palette and Benefit Bad Gal Bang mascara
Well, I attempted to wear my MAC x Black Panther palette along with bringing in some lighter lavender on the inner mobile lid, but my dang eyes wouldn’t quit watering! By the time I got home with my household items for the month, plus some food, it was literally purple mush! It wasn’t the fault of the makeup, but just my reactive tear ducts. So I bought some highly lubricating artificial tears to use at bedtime to see if this will encourage my own eyes to begin making healthier tears during the day so that this becomes a non-issue.
Ugh, I hate when that happens! I have an occasional problem with one eye tearing on the outside corner, which results in a blank spot in my makeup, especially on my lower lash line. Please let us know if the artificial tears help.
Seraphine, I will definitely give an update on whether or not this works. Been using them nightly for a week plus. Tomorrow, I have to go do the rest of my shopping. Here’s hoping that I don’t wind up looking like the purple version of Harley Quinn again! Only this time, tamer smokey “neutrals” from the MAC Whitney Houston palette.
Hmmm – awhile ago now, but I am pretty sure it was a Bronze Bliss and Decadence eye look.
MAC Naked Lunch and Covergirl Brown Smolder.
Pretty sure it was UD Moondust in Solstice as that was my most recent purchase for eyes during the holidays. I now have my hands on UD Moondust in Space Cowboy and finally understand the hype!
UD Primer Potion (original formula), then PML Astral Blitz Quad.
Oooo, eye product? technically, aBalm eyebrow pencil that I found in a trousse I hadn’t used in a while. Eye palette was next (same day), NARS Man Ray Love Game (difficult to work with, but the result was very nice). I’ve decided put go back and use all the palettes I have that I found hard work with and see if I’ve improved my techniques.
Primer, which I set with powder, followed by Charlotte Tilbury Super Nudes easy eye palette.
