@Dusty1   If you love cream shadow and/or a natural neutral shadow look, I use Laura Mercier Eye Basics. It's really a shadow primer, but comes in skin tone shades. I use Buff or Linen. Sometimes it's my "one and done" eye shadow look or I add a little bronzer or blush in the crease before a dark charcoal or navy tightline and 1 coat of mascara.




I also use the Eye Basics in Linen.  Have you tried the Peach color?  Also, I had noticed that my tube of Linen was getting kinda thick as I'm not using it as much.  Added a few drops of Inglot Duraline and it thinned it out nicely.

@Shanus I kind of like more look to my look. LOL

I don't really go for the natural look, much.

I do have the Butter London Serum Eye Shadows that are more of a skin tone/natural look, but if I am going to do my makeup I like to look like I did it!

That sounds terrible, but it's not as bad as it sounds.

 

 

@Dusty1  - I understand what you're saying.  My natural look is not wearing makeup.  I like makeup and also like to look like I'm wearing it.  Not trying to hide it

@Mellyg I have not tried the Amika product that I purchaed this week. But I do have the Amika Signature Replenishing Body Wash and Body Cream.  I like the fragrance (citrus & vanilla), and they feel good on the body.

@Shanus  You mentioned the EYE BASICS...I see that product is a cream style...is there something similar in a powder?  I think if I put that on my eyelids the look would not be smooth. Possibly a fine milled powder would work best for me, any recommendations?  I never use eye shadow, and as mentioned before my skin is really dry - I believe due to using Accutane in my teens for acne.
