I’m a bargain-hunter, at my core. Rather than purchase inexpensive products on an as-needed basis like some frugalistas, I prefer to stock up on luxe bargains… striking like a cobra when I spot a great deal.
The Close Up Eye Tutorial Kit by LORAC is a perfect example of the type of deal I’m always on the prowl to purchase. For only $36, this value kit has a retail value of $110 if you were to buy each item individually. Unlike some value sets that offer discounts on outlandish shades, LORAC Close Up Eye Tutorial Kit contains must-have/frequently-used beauty products for eye makeup application. The set includes a Behind the Scenes Eye Primer, Starry-Eyed Baked Eye Shadow Trio in Movie Star, Special Effects Mascara in Black, Front of the Line PRO Eyeliner in Black and Double Ended Blending/ Smudging Brush.
Perhaps my favorite aspect of this kit is the enclosed eye makeup application tutorial, with Carol Shaw’s own step-by-step instructions on how to apply her fabulous products. I’ll admit, I’ve followed Carol’s four-step instructions to achieve a “Natural Eye”, and LOVE the result. It’s truly a gorgeous and easy to achieve look for daytime.
But, if you’re the type who frequently heads out for drinks after work, you’ll love Close Up all the more! Tote your kit with you to work, and flip the manual’s page from “Natural Eye” to either “Sexy Cat Eye” or “Signature Smokey Eye” to build upon your original look for evening fun!
Retail price for the LORAC Close Up Eye Tutorial Kit is $36.
