I was fortunate enough to try out a few mineral eye shadows from Spa Luminata and thought I would share some of my thoughts on the look. All of the colors I used can easily be swapped out with any brand, as long as they’re similar in shade. I think this cool color combination is easily transferable to any eye color and is perfect for a winter or even holiday look.

I decided on a subtle crease color this time and completely excluded black eyeshadow from the look. I wanted to create something dramatic, but experiment with the prospect of a softer smokey eye. I really like how the muted lid and pop of color underneath the lash line make for a unique alternative to the full on black and gray smokey eyes that are often popular in fall makeup trends.

The look is certainly different than what I am used to, but that is why I often like to step outside my comfort zone and experiment. Sometimes you end up with something beautiful and unexpected! So, keep that in mind when you’re playing around with your next cosmetic purchases. Makeup can always be taken off, so never be afraid to stray from your usual routine and try something new.
