A bronzey eye is my go to. My go to for a night out and my go to for the day. I just think it works and makes my blue eyes 'pop' however it really is a universal colour and will look good on everyone. So here is a rundown of my three favourite bronze eyeshadows.

The one everyone knows:

The Maybelline Colour Tattoo in On and On Bronze/ Bad to the Bronze is the cult classic that everyone knows. Its a long lasting gel-cream formula that i like to wear either as base for some of the eyeshadows coming up or on its own as its got that multi tone effect however you have to blend it fast, because once it's set it's set. But that's a good thing right?

The dark horse:

Next up is No.7 Stay Perfect Eyeshadow in 65 Truffle. This is a really pigmented, soft shadow which blends really well. It's got a mauve hint to it which makes it really pretty and I think the name fits it perfectly. I mainly use this in the outer corner of my eye to deepen a bronzed eye however the times i've used it all over the lid, i've really liked it. I also like the packaging; small, cute, simple yet sleek. 

My ultimate favourite:

I absolutely love this eyeshadow. It's not just the pick of my bronze eyeshadows but is close to being my all time favourite shadow and what's best, with it being Wet n Wild its the cheapest of the already cheap bunch. It's pigmented, easy to blend and doesn't crease as well as being the perfect shade for my eyes. When i'm in a rush for a night out or when i just want something that i know works, i put this all over my lid and smudge black eyeliner close to my top lashes and on the water line and lower lash line. If i've got more time i use the Maybelline Colour Tattoo first and put the No.7 shadow in the outer corner and a matte brown in the crease to add more dimension and help it last that little bit longer. It did come with a gold shadow too but that smashed and although i've never tried it, it seems very similar and a good dupe to the well loved Nars Isolde Duo. I've had mine for years and i really hope they still sell it as i'm running low. Time to stalk the internet!
