Buy The Best Eyeshadow Online

There’s an eyeshadow out there for everyone - whether you prefer a natural, ‘no-makeup makeup’ look or full glam makeup, eyeshadow definitely belongs in your makeup bag. Eyeshadows are incredibly versatile, too - did you know they can be used on your face? 

Shimmery, champagne gold shadows can double up as a highlighter, while cool-toned, muted nude shades are perfect for contouring and creating the illusion of shadows. It’s called eye shadow, after all! And there’s only one place you need to shop for eyeshadow: Australia’s favourite luxury online store, Beauty Affairs. 

Shopping for Eyeshadow: Makeup Tips

There are a lot of eyeshadows out there to choose from - how are you supposed to know if a palette or an eyeshadow duo is what you should be reaching for? Here’s our guide to buying eyeshadow.

If You’re Short on Time: Cream Eyeshadow

If you need to get your makeup together quickly in the morning (or if you’re a beginner) cream eyeshadow is what you should go for. These buttery, opaque formulas easily blend out with a finger on lids, making them look expertly applied in just a few swipes. 

For the Aspiring Makeup Artists: Eyeshadow Palette

Palettes come with a plethora of eyeshadow shades to help create everything from dramatic smokey eyes, super sharp cut creases to minimal-effort looks. The only limit is your creativity! 

For the Beginners: Eyeshadow Duos and Quads

Eyeshadow palettes with a huge variety of shades can look daunting to makeup newbies - that’s where duo and quad palettes come in. They’re created with two or four shades to choose from - narrowing down your choices and avoiding analysis paralysis when it comes to makeup. 

Pro tip - sweep a wash of colour over the lid as a base shade, then blend part of the next darkest shade in your natural eye crease for an easy go-to makeup look. Wing out your liner or add mascara for a touch of glam!

Tips for Perfecting Your Eyeshadow Makeup Looks

Along with an eyeshadow palette, there are some other crucial beauty tools you’ll need for flawless eyeshadow: makeup brushes. They help to apply and expertly blend your eyeshadow for an impeccable makeup look! 

Flat brushes are ideal for applying straight to the lid - not for blending. Use them if you need to create a bold pop of colour, or are packing on shadow for an intense smokey eye. Fluffy brushes should be reserved for blending out shades and diffusing away any harsh lines for a gorgeous makeup look that could’ve been done by a pro.
