In My Bag: Chanel Illuminating Eye Shadow

It's not really gold and it's not really bronze but it is, in my opinion, medal-worthy and deserving of the highest award for its stand alone chic-factor. No need to blend with other shades or coordinate a palette, just swipe the single shade on and, voila, instant wow.

Chanel's Ombre Unique Creme Illuminating Eye Shadow in Riviera is my newest "can't leave home without" makeup item. It's a sheer cream shadow (not gloppy like so many others) that leaves a subtle highlight. I can't help but love how it brings out the gold flecks in my eyes, too!
