I would like a $5,000 buying spree to this store.
This was a toned-down halo eye, as well as the highlight in the center of my lids wasn’t as strong as it is in a traditional halo.

This was the middle of the day, so I took it down a notch by keeping the golden highlight fairly close in tone to the surrounding bronze shadow, however I didn’t want it to be as well subtle, so I layered it on top of a shimmery gold pencil liner as well as did a swish of teal on the lower lash line.
