Sexy Summer Eyes

May 16th, 2008 by thedailyobsession

I’ve been keeping a little beauty secret to myself for the past month, but I figured it was time to share it. I’ve found an easy, but sexy smokin’ shadow for day. What is it, you ask? It’s the OMBRE ESSENTIELLE Soft Touch Eyeshadow in Safari by Chanel.

Now, while I have plenty of smoky shadows that would work wonderfully at night, it’s a bit of a challenge to find a shimmery hue that I could get away during the day. This fulfills that quest. Arriving in a petite velvet pouch, the shadow is encased in the always luxurious Chanel packaging and comes with the standard brush applicator. The shadow is ultra-fine, soft and easy to apply; it doesn’t slip, slide or crease. I want to gush about the shade for hours, because it’s just that gorgeous. Safari is described as a “stone brown,” which really translates to a beautiful smokey taupe that is packed with shimmer (without being overwhelming). With a light layer or two, you’ll be all set for your entire day - and you can even wear it through cocktails and beyond. It just gives you a mysterious look that will make you want to vamp it up. Try, try, try!
