EOTD/FOTD: Halloween Purple Glitter Smokey Eye & Cat Makeup!

Hope everyone had a Happy Halloween!

I didn't get to dress up for work but I did a little fancier-than-usual eyemakeup to get in the spirit ;P I did a purple glitter smokey eye using Maybelline's Eye Studio Color Explosion palette in Amethyst Ablaze (my fav purple palette!) I used pink glitter from NYX's glitter cream eyeshadow palette in Sweet Chocolate Browns.


These circle lenses are EOS Adult Violets (the new version). I did a review on them here. They are really not at all that bold except in pictures/very direct sunlight. Overall they just make my eyes look "dark." But they photograph nicely :)


Lippie is Maybelline ColorSensational Lip Color in Pink Please with Revlon Super Lustrous Lipgloss in Peach Petal over it.


Later when I got home I also decided to do some cat makeup just for fun :)
All I did was add on a nose & whiskers with dark brown eyeliner. Then touched up my makeup a bit to add a dramatic wing with a light black eyeshadow on the outer and inner corners of my eyes.


Mrawrrr! Hope you all had a fun and safe Halloween!

EOTD: Ultraviolet Eyes

One of my favorite eyeshadow colors to play around with is purple :) For this look I just used a purple shade all over the lid, darker purples at the inner and outer corners, a light brown shade above the crease, and a shimmery white shade to highlight.


Pretty much every time I do purple looks, I use NYX's Jumbo Eye Pencil in Oyster as a base, and also layer it over the shadow to build up the color intensity.



Again, I'm terrible at remembering the style names of which lashes these are, all I know is that they're 2 pairs of Forever 21 lashes layered together ;P

EOTD: "Mysterious" Smoky Purple, Black, & Brown

What I used:

  1. Red Earth Eyeshadow in Star Light to highlight below the brow
  2. NYX Ultra Pearl Mania Pigment in Purple, all over lid & above crease, then packed on lid
  3. Black shade from NYX Champagne & Caviar palette on/above crease
  4. Brown shade from Wet N Wild Vanity Palette on outer-V

EOTD: More Random Colors -- Teal, Light Aqua, Purple, Gold, & Burnt Sienna?!

Hey everyone! Here today to share an EOTD I did the other day, with some random colors:

Gold below the brow, teal & light aqua on the lid, purple above the crease, and "burnt sienna" above the teal. Do you guys remember the Burnt Sienna Crayola Crayon?! That's what the eyeshadow shade I used instantly reminded me of -- I could never forget the name of that crayon because it was just so "different" LOL!



Semi-inspired by my current gradient-fade nails:



What I used:

(Sephora Collector's Edition Palette)



Entire look done using only the MAC 239 & a Kirkland blending brush.
