Get baked: Laura Mercier Baked Eye Colour

Once in awhile, we want to try a product simply based on how cool it looks. (Well, maybe more than once in awhile.) But this definitely applies to Laura Mercier Baked Eye Colour.

Seriously, can you believe how fantastic this eye makeup looks? Each eyeshadow in the collection is inspired by the precious jewels and raw silks that once traveled the Silk Road. Rich, shimmering violets, roses, turquoises and golds are vibrant and totally gorgeous.

And the good news? They work wet or dry! The formula is smudge resistant and lightweight, and smooths onto the lid easily and evenly. We love them dry as eyeshadow or wet as eyeliner, though applying wet as shadow makes them look much more dramatic.

Laura Mercier Baked Eye Colour retails for $22 at sephora.com.
