I've always wanted to try blending eyeshadows into the crease of eyelid or attempt a fancy eye make up look but have always been far too afraid to have a go. However, I finally mustered up enough courage to take a shot at it and was actually very pleased and proud of how it turned out, so I thought I'd share it with you.
The only reason I had a brief idea of where to start was because of the brilliant Tanya Burr whose YouTube channel has given me some great ideas and inspiration to test out new make up looks. She also has a blog which makes for a fantastic read and I'm sure all of you would adore her as much as I do. Another inspiration of mine for this was Zoe from Zoella who is my favourite YouTuber and also does some lovely make up looks and also has a blog. Here's my attempt at it!

To create the look I started with sweeping the light neutral colour from the palette all over my lid, then blended the Tender colour over the top of that. Next I blended the darker Truffle colour through the crease and into the far corner of my eye. Finally, before applying the mascara, I highlighted the inner corner with the white shade from the palette.
I hope you all have fun playing around with this look, I know I did, and I'd love to see your recreations.
Thanks for reading!
