On the second day of Christmas my true love gave to me: two eyeshadow palettes
/
The Body Shop's Smoky Eye Palettes
To compliment my Ruby Sparkle lipstick I was given two options to play up my eyes: Smoky Copper* and Smoky Moonstone*. However, do I take a walk on the dark side of the moon or should I conduct heat with a bit of copper?
Can you hear the sound of duelling banjos? Smoky Moonstone (left) and Smoky Copper (right)
Each palette comes with a creamy beige base for all over application and then they divide. Copper Smoke leans warm with the help of metallic copper, burnt taupe and chocolate brown. Personally, this is my favourite palette; while I was away I learned orange hues help to intensify hazel eyes -- colour me happy!

Smoky Moonstone is perfect for those looking to capture the well-known smoky eye look. Soft taupe, milk chocolate and greyish brown take the guess work out of the equation.

The texture of the shadow is soft yet doesn't promote fallout and I think the formula lends itself to well-blended matrimony.
Each palette comes with a built in mirror, petite eyeshadow and angled eyeliner brushes and "how to" guides.
Like what you see so far? The Smoky Eye palettes are still available for $39.95 AUS / $28.00 USD.
Stay tuned for my final holiday look...
