Sometimes, for a quick and simple look, I’ll apply Cakeshop directly onto my lid and use a finger to draw the color up into the crease. I think Cakeshop Shadestick even looks pretty worn all by herself. To define the look with a soft line, I’ll follow that up by applying Humid along the lash line, or into the outer corner of the lid for a smokier look.

Or when I’m in the mood for a more complicated look, I’ll add Cakeshop Shadestick (a shimmery greenish gold cream eyeshadow in stick form) and MAC Humid Eyeshadow (a shimmery dark green) up in the mix.įor that look, I’ll start by layering Cakeshop beneath Aquavert on the lids and then sweep some MAC Soft Brown into the crease. The shimmery mint green adds a surprising touch of brightness to my eyes, making me look, for all intents and purposes, like I’m actually alert and well rested, LOL! Patting Aquavert onto my lids, curling my lashes and then adding lots of black mascara is like an instant sugar rush. Two products really stand out because of how they work with my coloring - Aquavert Eyeshadow ($14.50) and Cakeshop Shadestick ($16.50).

Overall, I’m on the Sugarsweet fence because I feel like the pinks, peaches and yellows aren’t the most flattering shades in the world for my skin tone, like they look too pale and cool on me, but I am drawn to a few of Sugarsweet’s tasty treats.
