I took the picture straight after sharpening and using on both eyes.I’ve also been marching up and down the halls, one fist raised in defiance, the other clutching a pan of MAC Eye Shadow in Bamboo ($14.50), to protest against the lack of love this often overlooked warm brown matte receives. I tend to use it on its own, underneath my lower lash line, and then a little in the corners over my black eyeliner! It is far too creamy, which makes it difficult to work with.

Now, I do love the look of this eyeliner, and it looks perfect with Tempting, however I wish the consistency was a little better. Whenever I wear this eyeshadow, I team it up with what I think, is a match made in heaven! The Lord It Up Eyeliner. This is, in my opinion and many others, a favourite among shadow brushes! It is an all-round brush perfect for applying, blending, highlighting and smudging! Pretty much everything really! I applied just a couple of layers, going for a light look seen as I was only going shopping! I used the Mac 239. The best thing about this eyeshadow is that you can build it up, you can either have a light finish, or go really dark with it, depending on the occasion or look you want to go for!

From the Lustre finish, Tempting is a warm, chocolate-brown colour with flecks of gold, giving it a subtle shimmer! Perfect for me, as I dislike matte eyeshadows, but too glittery can look a bit cheap! I played it safe and went for my current, favourite Mac eyeshadow – Tempting. Even though I was just going shopping, I was so bored waiting, and i’m so rubbish at applying eye makeup, I thought i’d quickly practice.

Yesterday while I was patiently waiting for others to get ready ( I thought I took long enough), I decided to pop some eyeshadow on.
