Blue eyeshadow

I started wearing makeup (so to speak) in 7th grade in 2005. Meaning I went into my mom’s bathroom and put bronzer all over the face and a lot of eyeliner (no mascara) before school then snuck out before she could see what I’d done!

In high school, I had makeup of my own but I still would sneak and use her Clinique “Egyptian” eyeliner which was a very beautiful metallic black/emerald and has since been discontinued—a MAJOR mistake. I would go to a department store in the train station and try testers before going out into the city.

Anyway, I have loved makeup for a LONG TIME. I think it’s so much fun to play around on my face. Over time I’ve started to lean more into looking like I’ve had fun instead of trying to look beautiful and gorgeous, and the most delightful kind of makeup to do that with is blue eyeshadow!! Here are some favorites:

• Half Magic Chrome Addiction Matte eyepaint in “X Factor” - This was from the Maxine kit, and apparently is only available via A24? Sad. Another favorite, discontinued?!

• NYX blue jean baby palette

• Kaja beauty bento in Blueberry Bingsu

• About Face glitter. Liquid eyeshadow in Next Caller

• Violette_FR yeux paint in Dieu Bleu
