Now that we are post Christmas I am starting to think about the fashion and beauty trends for S/S 2017 and have spent many hours browsing Vogue for catwalk pictures from designers big and small.
I was then separately browsing Pinterest (as you can do for hours on end) for collage artists (my new obsession) and stumbled upon this picture which I later found out was by Miles Donovan.

Upon seeing this picture a light bulb went off in my head - the colour palette was nearly identical to that used by Nino Banukhadia in their Spring/Summer 2017 RTW collection.
The varying shades of grey will cool yellows and khakis are beautifully offset by the warm reds used around the eyes.
This is a colour palette I could incorporate into my wardrobe and makeup this season quite comfortably as it is not too far of a departure from the dark greys (and blacks) that I wear on a daily basis.
Red eyeshadow is something a bit different for me, though - I love the idea of being bold with my eyeshadow but I never am using my glasses as an excuse.
I'm going to try and work on that so have put together my warm eyeshadow wish list.
- 35 Colour Matte Nature Glow Eye Shadow Palette (35OM) available from Cult Beauty* (currently on a waitlist) in the UK or directly from Morphe.
I have the original 35O but seeing as it is the perfect palette for a warm red eye some version had to be featured.
This palette was a late edition to my Christmas list, but unfortunately, it was too late to have made it to my stocking. I do hope I get my hands on this as it is getting rave reviews and the swatches look amazing.
Seeing as I have been a bit palette heavy I thought I should mention some singles
Steampunk (DC) Showtime (F) Flame thrower (F) Cherry Cola (M) Morocco (M)
Makeup Geek Singles are available in the UK from Beauty Bay or directly from MUG and I haven't purchased a shade yet that I don't love,
Do you have any warm eyeshadow favourites?
