Hello readers,
Today I have my first ever eyeshadow palette challenge to share with you. I found myself having way to many options and feeling a bit overwhelmed in the mornings, which meant I was often just skipping eyeshadow all together. The thought of a challenge where I limit myself to a single palette for shadow choices really appealed to me because it makes the decision of 'what should I use' much less daunting. For my first challenge I chose to put together seven looks from the tarte cosmetics tartelette palette.
EOTD #1
For this look I went for really neutral shadows to balance out the colourful blue liner. There was a bit more contrast between the lid and crease shades when I first applied this, but I didn't have a chance to take photos until after a long work day and by then they had muddled together a little bit. No blue transferred to my upper lid though, so I'm considering that a win!

EOTD #2
For day #2 I went for something a little darker and smokier. Over primer multi-tasker ends leaning more brown that the purple shade in the pan.

EOTD #3
Since the brown tones took over in looks 1 and 2, I focused on purples and pinks for day 3. My eyeliner just would not cooperate and I finally just gave up on getting a crisp line.

EOTD #4
I was really happy with day three's look, so I tried the same thing again but with taupes and black. I also skipped the liner to soften up the look since I used a fair bit of black in my outer V.

EOTD #5
Switched it up by going for a dark lid shade in this look. I also tried out a new primer from Vasanti and it held up pretty decently on my crease-tastic hooded lids.

EOTD #6
This was the look I put together for my annual Christmas dinner party. The perfect opportunity to amp up the matte shades with some glitter to and shimmer.
