Pastel EyeshaDO

Another makeup look that is trending right now is pastel eyeshadow.
I cant get enough of the subtle pastel eye look. It makes me feel like I’m a 70’s era doll, or Alice having tea with the mad hatter, or in the Louis Vuitton ice cream shop ad’s. 
Remember the Covergirl ads in the 70’s? 

A housewife with pastel blue eyeshadow on the advertisement “Covergirl invents 9 hour eye polish”!
Or the Maybelline kit “For a girl on the go”.
So edgy! So cosmopolitan. 
A historical pastel shadow look that I love is twiggy in a bright blue with a massively dramatic black crease. 

Today’s pastel look is more subtle and leans in favor of the unicorn trend.
Makeup brands like Lorac, MAC, and Kat Von D, to name a few have come out with 9-16 shade pastel palettes. 
I like the femininity & ethereal nature of the pastel shadow craze. Blues, pinks, greens, purples. 
I would LOVE to be able to get my hands on Chanel’s Spring 2010 collection so I could rock pastels all over and do it right.
Think I wouldn’t wear pastel eyeshadow with a pastel Chanel suit or dress and a bow? I’d even add their costume jewelry. 
What do you think? 
I didn’t have any pastel palettes so I had to mix a lot of greens, blues, purples and pinks with white shadow & my Holographic palette. 
I think it worked out pretty well!

Today I tried out the Kat Von D Alchemist Holographic Palette. I was aiming for a somewhat subtle look. No blue lips or crazy eyes. Just a pop of color & pizazz! 

 I wanted to take a video so you could catch the full movement of the colors. Boy was it hard finding decent lighting, so excuse the unprofessional video, lol! 
Be sure to also read my review on this palette posted yesterday! 🙂
