Eye Love Wednesday - one swipe gold eyeshadow from Nudestix, Eddie Funkhouser and Hard Candy!

Strangely for a beauty blogger, I am super lazy when it comes to day-to-day makeup - if it can't get on my face in the 5 minutes that I allow for makeup application it isn't happening. Which should mean that eyeshadow is a no-go in my daily makeup routine - and that would be terrible because a little colour on the eyelids can fool everyone into thinking that I got a much better night's sleep then I sometimes do. The best shade I've found to perk up and add polish is gold, along with format that goes on in one step and you have the recipe to quick and beautiful shadow - a few of my fave easy gold shadows are:

Nudestix Magnetic Eye Color in Gilt - $28 - a long-wearing, neutral, all-in-one eye shadow pencil that highlights and delivers intense color, precise lining, and primes lids for all day wear. With a soft and super-gliding formula, it offers easy-to-blend, neutral eye color with even payoff. Being waterproof and crease proof, it’s perfect for oily lids and the neutral shades available create a fresh-faced, nude makeup look that suits all skintones.

It's also available in 7 other neutral shades including black since I know you'll love this one so much that you'll want to build a whole wardrobe of them!

Available now at Sephora and sephora.ca.

Eddie Funkhouser Chromographic Eye Gloss in Afterglow - $12 - delivers a sheer burst of prismatic iridescent gold pigments with a radiant and dewy finish. Formula contains aloe vera to soothe irritation, vitamin E to condition and prevent dryness, vitamin C to instantly brighten skin as it neutralizes free radicals; and vitamin A to neutralize free radicals.

Also comes in 2 other shades - a peach or a lavender - can be mixed with pigments for some crazy cool effects or even worn under your regular eyeshadow as a base with a bit of a kick!

Hard Candy Shadowholic 12HR Waterproof Eye Crayon in Blondie - $4.98 - offers an easy to use and precise application pencil format combined with a long-wearing, vibrant colour formula that glides on effortlessly and sets in seconds without creasing, smearing or smudging.

Every pencil comes with it's own sharpener so you don't have to worry about finding one the right size and in 7 other shades including several vibrant colours so if you wanted to take the neutral one-colour day look to night, you could easily layer a brighter colour with this one for a totally new look!

Available exclusively at Walmart stores across Canada.
