Favorite Brown and Copper Eye Shadow

Last fall I had my makeup done by a makeup artist my niece hired to do the makeup for her wedding party. I loved the results, especially my eyes. I asked her what brand she was using and she told me they were a mix of professional products???  She said she had used a "nut brown" shade on my lids with a "sheer copper" shade in the crease and outer corners and a rich brown liner pencil on the top lid and outer 2/3 of my lower lid.  Smiley Sad  Wow, that told me a lot...

 

I have blue eyes.  Please, if any of you have suggestions or recommendations for colors that fit or are close to the shades she mentioned, I would be forever grateful for your help. Have a peaceful evening -

This is a very good quality brand, it’s drugstore but is just as good as the higher end brands.  Also, try NYX, Elf, Colorpop,  these kits are great and they indicate exactly where, on your eye, to use the,

Check out the Pat McGrath Mthrshp Subliminal Bronze Palette or Sublime Bronze Ambition.

There are a lot of shadows out there that match those criteria, but if you want really great shadows go with PML.

I only use MAC  eyeshadow...never flakes, or creases, and stays beautiful all day.  Highly pigmented.

@DazlinI LOVE Mac & I they do have so many beautiful colors. You can certainly find the color/texture/pigment you want among Mac's shadows, but my new love is the Pat McGrath line of shadows.

I only have 1 of her smaller palettes (Le Vie En Rose) because it was on sale & I am weak.

I have to have more. Gorgeous shadows.

JustJazzmom: This L'Oreal quad has a similar color palette as this Tom Ford quad I'm eyeing & love. Nude Dip. Beautiful quad. Not worn TF but have heard his shadows are great. Expensive but great.
