Multipurpose Product I - White Eyeshadow

A staple in every girl's makeup bag should be a white eyeshadow. It could be any type of white, such as champagne, ivory or whatever shade it is.

The obvious use for a white eyeshadow is as a brow bone highlight or and inner corner highlight. But how about using the eyeshadow as a facial highlight. I was inspired about my The Body Shop Shimmer Waves. (Check out my review) But this product could be used as an eyeshadow and as a blush. I went through my makeup collection and found a white eyeshadow and tested it out as facial highlight. It gave me the same results as the Shimmer Waves.

The only thing I would warn you about is to make sure if matches your blush. If your wearing a gold-toned blush with gold shimmer than it would go better with a white eyeshadow with gold shimmer. The same goes with silver eyeshadow. But I think it would still look fine if you have silver toned eyeshadow with a gold toned blush.

BLEND! Yes. Please blend. I like applying my highlight with my finger. It blends it well and helps pick off the excess shimmer. My second option for applying highlight would be with a fluffy eyeshadow brush. It's flimsy so it won't pack on the product and be overly shimmery.

P.S. Mac Vanilla Pigment would also work. It would last forever also. I'm planning on picking that one up also.

What's your perfect highlight? Let me know.
