08 Trend: Gold Eyeshadow -Pure Gold

There is an attempt to ‘live younger’, I looked into fashion magazines for this season’s beauty trend in search for eye shadow ideas, as opposed to my usual eye shadow style (the few times I bother with eye shadow;) Read: brown. If you read every magazine out there for a few months, you would realise that they feature eye shadow of every colour so I ignored the obviously magazine-styled ones, like many shades of green, yellow and blue, and have decided to accept the classy trend: the gold eyeshadow which is very trendy and classy.There are two types. The first one is pure gold.As you can see,pure gold basically means just plain gold all colour over the eye lids. Obviously I don’t recommend you actually taking this look literally in real life.Because this was mostly apply on models and showbiz related people.While it looks very effortlessly applied on, I’m sure we wouldn’t be able to replicate it quite as well in real life.The way I’m planning on trying out this look is to first adjust by dabbing a tiny bit of the gold just at the inner corners of the eyes, so it will look as it does in the image above. Just a tiny dab to add a little something to the otherwise plain (but equally elegant) look. After trying it out a few times, I’ll move on to try the all-gold look As Goldmine colour applied the colour all over eyelids and honestly,it looked more like sparkly yellow than the pure gold and its look is very good and make your look younger and also very trendy.
