It's so easy to get stuck in a makeup rut. I am certainly guilty of wearing my favorite combo on days when just one cup 'o joe doesn't seem to be enough... MAC Paint Pot Constructivist, MAC eyeshadows Satin Taupe/Antiqued, and MAC eye kohl Smolder. Yup, this is my staple. Although being a MAC girl, I have been known to shake things up a bit with a different smoky eye or a simple eye look paired with a bold lip. A little known fact about me may be that I'm a sucker for a statement pink lip.
One of my favorite eye looks is called a "lightbox" and involves bringing "light" to the center of the eye... typically with a frost eyeshadow or a pigment. And yes, I do this look with the MAC Paint Pot Constructivist ALOT. I have no shame. At all.
So here are a couple examples of the lightbox:
