Four Halo Eye Looks Using Makeup Geek Matrix System Eyeshadows

 

 

I recently purchased the Makeup Geek Matrix System Mega Set of eyeshadows, containing the Colour Matrix Palette and the Neutral Matrix Palette.  I’ve been enjoying playing with the eyeshadows so much and coming up with lots of different looks.

I came up with four different eye looks using the Halo (or highlighted effect) eye technique.  For this eyeshadow style, you have a light shade on the middle part of the lid and a darker shade in the inner and outer lid sections (you can get more tips on how to create this eyeshadow style here).  I don’t wear this eyeshadow style much, so it was fun to experiment with different colour combinations.

I have given details on how to re-create each combination below, along with suggestions for cheek and lip products to go with each look.

If you would like some look ideas using particular shades or certain types of looks, let me know! I’m really enjoying playing about with these eyeshadows, so stay tuned for more combination ideas!

I’m planning a post on the Makeup Geek eyeshadows, including photos and swatches, so keep an eye out for that soon!

My husband said he would treat me to a new eyeshadow palette as a little pick-me-up and I chose the Natasha Denona Love Palette.  I’ve never had anything from Natasha Denona and I thought the mix of pink, red, purple, gold and silver shades looked beautiful in this palette.

I have been loving using this palette and feel so inspired every time I pick it up.  The range of shades, finishes and tones means I can use it to create any type of look, from everyday to colourful or smokey.  I find the palette layout extremely helpful too for coming up with eyeshadow combinations.

Whilst the palette is by no means cheap (£60), it costs significantly less than Natasha Denona’s larger palettes, so I thought this might be a fun way to try her products.  It’s so wonderful to have a little bit of luxury and it feels like such a lovely treat whenever I pick it up to use.
