My Go-To Simple Matte Eye Look

Simple and Easy, using 3 shades!

Sometimes I feel like doing something to my eyes, but nothing major, and this is the look I always go for. It's so simple, it only uses 3 (matte) shades from a quad I own, but they're colours you can easily find very similar alternatives to, and I'm sure you'll have dupes in your collection.



My favourite liner is the L'Oreal Linear intense, as I'm sure you'll know if you've seen my 'eyemakeuplook' series, because I literally use it every single time I go out.



This eye makeup is so inoffensive, it's like hardly having anything on. But it just cancels out my veining on the eyelid and creates a tiny bit of depth in the crease and highlight at the browbone.

I used the Soap and Glory 'What's Nude' quad, which I mention all the freaking time!


I used the matte cream shade as a browbone and inner corner highlight, the second colour, a taupe, as a transition colour in the upper crease, and a tiny but of the third colour, a darker corky brown in the outer corner and crease, as well as 2/3 of the outer lower lashline to tie it all together.


The quad is £10, you can buy it from some of the bigger Boots stores. I love Soap and Glory makeup so much.
