Eye essentials as of late 2015 anniesbeautyblog1

Being the makeup snob that you all know by now that I am, there aren’t too many products that I easily include in my Holy Grail list of awesome products that I will always and forever recommend with my eyes closed!

For a product to make it on THE list it has to be tested thoroughly for a couple of months, in different weather conditions and different situations… And to be a repurchase! At least once!

Therefore, I can count my HG makeup products on the fingers of one hand: Chanel Le Volume Mascara – the waterproof formula, the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder in Dim Light, the Charlotte Tilbury Lip Liner in Pilow Talk, whatever cream eyeshadow shade from Tom Ford and By Terry Ombre Blackstars ( you’ll definitely see a complete review on all my By Terry Ombre Blackstars pretty soon! )…

… and now the newest entry, the Tom Ford Eye Defining Pen, in shade 01 Deeper.

I did tried a couple of eye liners before from brands like Dior, Chanel and Clarins,  but nothing beats this Tom Ford one in terms of application, opaqueness, saturation and longevity. It is the easiest to apply – literally just one swipe and your winged liner is “on fleek”, not to mention that you’re ready to go in a matter of seconds, the most opaque, matte and saturated with colour from all the ones that I have used ( the darkest black liner ) and it lasts throughout the day without moving around – even if you have the oiliest of lids, once this sets is there for good… Even if you danced all night long!

It comes with a double ended tip, a slimmer one for precision and a thicker one to draw and fill in the flick. Both are so easy to use and the final result is close to perfection, even if you’re not the most experimented person when it comes to applying eye liner.

Here you have some examples of how the Tom Ford Eye Defining Pen looks on me. Keep in mind that I am one of those unexperimented persons I was mentioning before!

Bottom line, the Tom Ford Eye Defining Pen, is one product I would definitely recommend buying with the eyes closed, one of those makeup items that absolutely justifies its hefty pricing.

What about you, Beautiful? What’s your favourite eye liner? What should I try next? What’s your HG? Do you have a funny “incident” that involves the use of an eye liner?

As always thanks for reading and…

See you soon!

xx, Annie

Eye essentials as of late 2015 anniesbeautyblog1

I’ve been loving a lot a natural eye look lately! Since I focused my makeup mainly on the lips, always choosing dark, vampy, bold colours, I felt the need of a neutral eye makeup to balance the whole look!

Here you have my eye essentials as of late, some good old, trustworthy ones and some jaw-dropping, amazing new discoveries!

EYESHADOWS:

  • my absolute favourite and the easiest on to use those mornings when you’re late, is Burberry Pale Barley. A natural shade with a little twist, blends like a dream and you’re ready in 5 seconds

  • another favourite is Charlotte Tilbury’s The Sophisticate Eyeshadow Palette a good selection of warm, brown, neutral colours to help give some depth and definition to the eye
  • a new amazing discovery was the Charlotte Tilbury Colour Chameleon in Bronzed Garnet an awesome bronz-y, copper-y shade, very long lasting and easy to use ( review here )
  • the Tom Ford Cream and Powder Eye Colour in Golden Peach was the cream eyeshadow that I wore all Summer long ( you can see it in my Seasonal Favourites Summer 2015 as well ) and I loved it that much that I wore it a lot throughout Autumn too. See why in this post, here.
  • to highlight the inner corners of my eyes I preferred my all-time favourite By Terry Ombre Blackstar in Blonde Opal ( more here ), to a close tie with my Burberry Effortless Kohl in Stone No.3, which I also used in my waterline. I love Stone as it is such a natural, flesh-toned shade that helps brighten up any look.

EYELINER:

  • my eyeliner of choice was another new discovery, the Tom Ford Eye Defining Pen – the best investment in an eyeliner one can ever make and definitely holy grail material

MASCARA:

  • another holy grail, the best mascara ever, the Chanel Le Volume de Chanel Mascara, the waterproof version, in black. Gives volume, defines the lashes without making them clumpy. Mine is on its last leg and I absolutely need to get a new one!

EYEBROWS:

  • I wore nothing but the Burberry Effortless Eyebrow Definer in Sepia No.2, as per usual when I go for a natural look. It also comes with this handy spoolie at one of its ends.

TOOLS:

I feel like our makeup tools are the unsung heroes we keep forgetting about in our posts. Here are my go-to’s as of late…

  • Tom Ford #11 Eyeshadow Brush ( review on #11, #13 and #21 here )
  • Tom Ford #13 Eyeshadow Blend Brush
  • Tom Ford #14 Smokey Eye Brush ( review here )
  • and Tom Ford #21 Lip Brush
  • the Shu Uemura S Lash Curler, the best eyelash curler for small eyes
  • and this Burberry sharpener that does the job extremely well

These were my hero products for my eye makeup look this Autumn! Have you tried them yet?

Feel free to share yours!

See you soon, Beautiful!

xx, Annie
