Chip's most frequently used eyeshadows (suitable for everyday look)



Hey, this is Chip. :) Today I will be talking about my most frequently used eyeshadows which are suitable for an everyday look. The products are affordable and the quality is really promising as well. It is not a "must" to wear eyeshadow, but applying a suitable amount of eyeshadows can complement your final look.

It can be frustrating sometimes to think about what eyeshadow should I wear today and might pick the wrong color and ended up looking funny; but we all know that you can never go wrong with natural, earth tone eyeshadows. I bought the Wet n Wild eyeshadows in Walgreens while its on sale and it costs like $2.00-ish (excluding tax) and the Maybelline color tattoo costs $6.99. 

The Wet n Wild eyeshadows were claimed to be the dupe of Mac's eyeshadows (phloof, naked lunch and cork) by other well-known make up gurus online; therefore, you are actually paying much much less to get a similar color of the mac eyeshadows!! :)

The lightest color looks pretty in the inner corner of the eyes and on the eyelids. It looks too light and too shimmery when applying it on my brow bone though, it might work for people who has a lighter complexion. Do tell me if it works for you :)

When applying the lightest color on my eyelids, I usually apply barely branded from Maybelline as a base to avoid fall-outs and to make the color appears more vividly.

I would apply my urban decay primer potion on my crease up to the browbone area before applying the brown color in my crease and blend out the hard edges with a blending brush.


The brown color in the eyeshadow can also be used to blend out brown eyeliners, resulting a beautiful ombre effect on your eyes. You can finish the look by applying a thin black eyeliner near your upper lash line after blending the brown eyeliners and eyeshadows.

When using the pinkish, salmon color on my eyelids, I would either apply my Benefit Bikini-tini Creaseless Cream Shadow or urban decay primer potion before applying the wet n wild eyeshadow on my eyelids.
