Purple Day Eyes



Idea: Purple Eyes... for day!

The Products: Used things I currently had... merely collected different purple shades to see what worked best. I ended up with a purple max factor eye shadow, Wet N Wild Idol Eyes Creme Shawdow in Techno (info http://wnwbeauty.com/Product.php?Pid=81), and LA Splash glitter liquid eyeliner in Purple Hea (got from Ulta).

The Application: First I used eye shadow primer over my lid to make sure the color came out true and would last. Then I used a sponge eyeshadow applicator to apply the purple eyeshadow to my lid. I started at the outside of my eye so i could create a good line on outer edge of the eye. I worked the shadow in towards the center of the lid. I also worked to blend and smear the eyeshadow upwards to there wasn't a harsh end line and the shadow went above the crease.


Next I used the Idol Eyes Creme Shadow stick to line my lower lash line and the inside part of my eye. I went slightly on my top lid, but only the inside portion. Then I used the glitter liquid eyeliner on the outer third of both my upper and bottom eyelash line. I thought this was just the right amount of sparkle without turning this into a night time look. I finished off with some highlighter on my browline and some mascara.

The Results: A fun and playful day look. Not appropriate for work, but definetely for Saturday shopping.. or ice skating which is how I spent the day!
