Wearing cool and warm colours together

These colours by Bourjois are beautiful, I like to wear cool and warm shades together as they can compliment each other and make the colours pop even more.
The coolness of the silver against the warmth of the chocolate is heavenly.

In this image I am just wearing these 2 eyeshadows and eyeliner.
The silver is all over the lid and the brown is in the crease and lower lashline.It keeps the look smokey but as the lid is light it doesn't look too dark.

Price
£5.99

These eyeshadows apply very smooth like velvet, the shimmer isn't overpowering which is a good quality. If you have heavy lines on the eyes this will accentuate them so stay away from the lighter shades.

  5. You really wouldn't think that cool and warm colours would go together in your head, but the result is gorgeous! It's such a fresh take on a smokey eye, and the brown keeps the silver from looking too 'dressy'.

    Bourjois always manages to impress me - their eyeshadows and blushes are such good quality for the amount that the cost!

  6. I remember thinking at the aussie event how your eyeshadow looks great, now I know what you used! I'm so glad Bourjois have improved the formula of these eyeshadows as they were a bit hit and miss before but now they all look great! x

  9. This is a gorgeous look! Those colors look amazing together! Lucky for me, a drugstore that is but a 10 minute walk from my house sells Bourgeois, so next time I'm bored at home I'll take a walk and pick these up! Thanks so much for sharing this!
