Eyeshadow question

Does anyone wear just one shade of eye shadow? I struggle to apply different shades in different areas and wondered why I stress about it and why not just wear one shade all over. Just wondered if anyone else does?

Oh gosh yes, Charlotte Tilbury cream eyeshadow or a Bobbi Brown shadow stick.

I only bother with lots of colours and all the blending etc if I’m going out somewhere and want to look more dressed up.

Thanks @PatChaunceysFruitCake I will have a look at both of those.

Yes, I wear one shade all over almost always (when I do wear eye shadow). I like the Ilia and Lisa Eldridge cream eyeshadows. I’ve also recently bought a couple of Lisa Eldridge’s powder eyeshadow palettes and they’re beautiful.

Trinny’s cream eye shadow is great to sweep across the eyelid.

I always wear one shade, if I try to blend two I just look like muddy eye! But I also just put a glimmery creamy lemon shade just under my eyebrow and a finger smudge on inner corner of the eye, takes extra 3 seconds and makes a nice difference x
