As the holiday season rolls in, expect beauty trends to quickly shift from vampy to shimmery. One example is how Rihanna went all-out with her glittery Galaxy Collection. Meanwhile, Claudia Barretto is also ahead of the pack as she sported a gold eyeshadow look during one of her mall shows.
Claudia’s eyeshadow look has a sunset feel to it with gold on the lid and inner corner. This makes it stand out more and make her eyes look more awake. You also have to make sure that you use a pigmented gold shade for that extra shine. Peep our list below for our suggestions.
Fenty Beauty Killawatt Freestyle Highlighter in Trophy Wife
Claudia credited Trophy Wife for giving her the intense gold color. If you think this highlighter won’t suit your skin tone, just use it as an eyeshadow. It’s highly pigmented so you won’t have problems applying it. Available on Sephora PH.
MAC Pigment in Gold
Before applying this loose color shadow, make sure that you apply eyeshadow primer or wet the brush so it sticks to your lid. These methods will also intensify the color. This MAC Pigment also allows you to build up the color the way you want from subtle to intense. Available at SM Megamall.
J.Cat Beauty Rockn’ the Night Sparkling Powder in Gold Road
For something more glittery, try this product from J.Cat Beauty which has an iridescent effect. If you look closely, Gold Road also has pink and yellow glitters in it. You might also want to use a glitter adhesive on your lid when applying this. Available at Uptown Mall.
