If there is one colour that’s synonymous with the festive season, we could give you 50 reasons why that happens to be golden. Does anything scream “It’s almost Diwali!” better than this hue? We think not! Yep, like always we’re pretty ecstatic about the fact that Diwali is here! With the festivities in full swing, we’ve started to amp up the glamour quotient with our makeup look. However, one thing happens to be missing, doesn’t it? Golden eyeshadows, DUH!
A full face of glamorous makeup is certainly incomplete without some blinding, golden eyeshadow, no? Let’s be honest, we’d rarely opt for this eyeshadow unless and until there’s an occasion to go all out. However, Diwali calls for the most dazzling shine ever, so VOILA!
Naturally, we’ve rounded up some of our favourite golden eyeshadows to help you look all sparkly this season.
SimplyNam, Illuminating Cream & Powder Eyeshadow in Pot Of Gold
A brand new launch hot off the shelves, the Illuminating Cream & Powder Eyeshadow is a first-of-its-kind formula that comes in a cream as well as powder formulation. Trust Namrata Soni to come up with something so extraordinary. The cream eyeshadow has quite the pigment that happens to be full coverage and it’s meant to be set with the powder eyeshadow for best results. Pot of gold is the perfect hue for the festive season, trust us!
Kay Beauty, Metallic Eyeshadow Stick Pencil in Golden Hour
Personally, I’m a massive fan of eyeshadow sticks because they’re so versatile as a product. Apart from the obvious usage being on the eyes, they can also be used on your cheeks and your lips! Kay Beauty’s Metallic Eyeshadow Stick Pencil in Golden Hours is perfect for a soft, golden eye. With a creme to powder formula that’s infused with the goodness of macadamia and ceramide, this eyeshadow stick offers you a metallic finish that’s sure to stand out.
PAC Cosmetics, Pressed Glitter Eyeshadow in Golden Hour
If you’re someone who enjoys being the centre of attention and loves going all out with your makeup, then the pressed glitter eyeshadow by PAC Cosmetics in Golden Hour is all you need. With a unique formula unlike usual pressed glitters, there’s barely any fallout with this one. It’s extremely creamy and doesn’t tug the eyes whilst applying. However, we must warn you that taking this off is quite a task.
M.A.C Cosmetics, Eyeshadow in If It Ain’t Baroque
The M.A.C Cosmetics Eyeshadow in If It Ain’t Baroque is ultimate sparkler. It’s a dark golden hue with lots of shine. With a smooth texture, this eyeshadow glides effortlessly onto your eyes. What we adore about this eyeshadow is that there’s minimal fallout, despite being a powder eyeshadow. While it can be worn all by itself too, it looks so much better when it’s layered on top of another eyeshadow.
Charlotte Tilbury, Eyes To Mesmerise in Star Gold
Nobody does luxurious, shiny eyeshadows as Charlotte Tilbury does and that’s a FACT! Eyes to Mesmerise is a pot of cream eyeshadow that happens to have a metallic finish. The shade “Star Gold” is a dazzling warm golden hue that is perfect for creating a golden smokey eye. It has a water-infused formula enriched with Vitamin E that soothes the eyes on application, I mean who wouldn’t love that? A little product goes a long way with this eyeshadow, so this one’s gonna last you a couple of Diwalis fo sho!
E.l.f. Cosmetics, Liquid Glitter Eyeshadow in 24K Gold
The liquid glitter eyeshadow in 24K Gold by e.l.f. Cosmetics is a stunning gel-based liquid eyeshadow with an intense, metallic gold pigment. For first-time users, it could be a little tricky to apply but fret not because all you need is practice! With opaque pigment that stands out, this liquid eyeshadow can be used in a single application for a subtle look or with multiple layers for a full glam look. It’s got multi-dimensional pearls and glitters, so you know your eyes are gonna be the talk of the town with this one.
