Gold and Bronze Eye Look and Tutorial Using Aromaleigh Spells! Mineral Eye Shadows

Aromaleigh sent me samples of its new (and one of the last) limited edition eyeshadow collections inspired by - guess what - Harry Potter! The Spells! collection is aptly named and transports me back to the time when I was reading the series. Looking at the shades, it reminded me of my imaginary eye shadow color story inspired by this literary and pop cultural phenomenon. I was glad that some of the colors that were brewing in my mind were brought to life by Aromaleigh. As expected, Aromaleigh impressed me with the rich, pigmented colors of these shadows. I am glad it decided to release three last eyeshadow collections before it closes its doors for good.

I will be making some swatches of these shades, but first, here is an eye look featuring some of the neutrals and bronzes from this collection:






Here is a step-by-step. All eye products Aromaleigh unless otherwise stated.


Apply Urban Decay primer potion all over lid and lower lashline. Using a fluffy shader brush, apply MAC Coral Crepe paint pot on lid.


Using the Charm Pro shader brush, apply Fidelius foiled on the lid using MAC Fix+.


Using the same shader brush, apply Priori Encantato dry on the outer lid using patting motions.



Blend with the MAC 224 brush.


Using the same 239 brush, apply Alohomora dry on outer V.


Using the same 239 brush, apply Expelliarmus on the crease to lend a bit of pinkish copper to the look. Blend with the 224.


Apply Morsmordre on the outer lid, blending into the crease using the 224. Blend harsh edges.


Like so. Using the Stila No. 5 brush, apply MAC Chamomile shadow (a satin yellow-white highlighter) on browbone to balance the shimmery shadows.


Apply L'Oreal Lineur Intense on upper lashline.


Apply falsies. Using MAC 214 brush, apply Fidelius on lower lashline and Alohomora on outer lower lashline. Tightline using Urban Decay 24/7 glide-on liner in Zero. Apply MAC Chromagraphic pencil in NW25/NC30 on waterline. Apply mascara.
