ABH Soft Glam Palette
A very close dupe for the ABH Soft Glam palette! Pigmented and easy to apply. Affordable and travel friendly.
BPerfect Mini Muted Palette
An all matte palette with all the shades you'd need for a warm brown look. Super versatile and afforable. Can also be used for eyebrow powder and a great option for travel!
BPerfect Mini Mattes Palette
Love these as one and done eyeshadows. The Zoom Sticks come in both matte and metallic formulas depending on your preference. My favourite shade is Rust which is a metallic warm reddy brown.
MECCA MAX Zoom Cream Eyeshadow Stick
The viral UD Space Cowboy dupe! The shade Ritz adds a wash of sparkle and amps up a simple matte eyeshadow look.
ColourPop Super Shock Eyeshadow
I always sweep a hint of Give Me Sun! or any warm bronzer lightly across my whole eyeshadow look, and underneath my eyes.
MAC Give Me Sun!
Eyeliner
My favourite chocolate brown eyeliners
Blue and green eyed people, this one is for you! The most incredible warm brown eyeliner that really lasts well. Super creamy and pigmented, plus this liner can be used for both eyes, lips and cheeks! Shade: 005 Off Roading
Revlon ColorStay Multi-Liner
Such an underrated brand! This is a super creamy and pigmented eyeliner in a gorgeous deep burgundy brown shade. It enhances any smokey eye look.
Peaches & Cream Memphis Eyeliner
An amazing drugstore liquid eyeliner that's even better than high end IMO. Love the shade Milk Chocolate which is a deep brown for a more subtle wing.
NYX Epic Ink Liner – Milk Chocolate
Matte Terracotta is a blue eyed girl's dream. It's a stunning deep mahogany shade in a retractable component that lasts really well throughout the day.
Sephora Collection 12H Retractable Waterproof Eyeliner
If you want the ultimate dark, rich brown eyeliner, Whiskey is the one. It's an expensive option but worth the price in my opinion. Great pigment and lasting power.
Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Waterproof Eyeliner Pencil
Mascara
The combo to achieve a voluminous, lengthened, false lash effect: 2 coats Lash Paradise, 1 coat Lash Sensational.
The dupe that replaced Too Faced Better Than Sex. I've gone through probably 20 tubes of this mascara and always have backups of it in my drawer. It gives you beautifully full, wispy lashes and the formula contains castor oil which actually grows you...
L'Oreal Lash Paradise Mascara
If you want to look like you're wearing falsies, apply 1 coat of this mascara over Lash Paradise. This one lifts and lengthens your eyelashes like crazy.
Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara
If you want dramatic, lengthened and lifted lashes, Panorama is a great option! It really holds onto your lashes and doesn't flake throughout the day either which is a bonus. I enjoy the Brown shade for a defined yet softer effect.
