So much for calling this challenge the 30 day make up challenge if I posted the last look in this series over a month ago right? Oh well… I thought I’d kick back into the swing of things with this warm bronze look. After soft greens I now introduce you to shimmering smokey browns. I hope you like it.

The completed look

Close ups

When I searched my stash looking for the right products to wear with a bronze look, I wrecked my brain trying to come up with the perfect look. And then I knew it: my Naked 1 palette! In combination with some more browns and a honey shimmer this is the look I made. I have to say I’m really pleased with how this turned out. It is a reminder that I should wear more warm colors on my eyes. It makes my eyes look darker and as such brings out one quirk about my look: the contrast of my (natural!) blonde hair and my dark eyes and brows.
