'Uptown Violet' Look

'Uptown Violet' Look

Hmmm...I must be working for Magnolia Makeup...nope! I wish! LOL! But since I bought so many of the pigments and glitters and I'm sure some of you also grab a few during the sale..and I love them anyway...I have been using them quite a bit lately. Anywho...here's another look using these pigments and some glitter. : )

Oh and I realized why I don't like purple looks...they are not bright enough for me! But by adding the green on the lower lashline the look went up a few notches in my book.

Eyes:

PRIME:
I started off with NARS Smudge Proof Eyeshadow Base all over my lid up to the brow bone. I applied MAC Layin' Low Paintpot (matte beige) all over my lid and on my brow bone as my primary base. Sonia Kashuk Dome Blending Brush

COLOR:
On the inner lid and tearduct area I applied MAC Blanc Type (matte ivory). MAC 239 Eye Shader Brush
Next on the middle of the lid I applied Magnolia Makeup 004 Tutu Pigment (satin light pink). MAC 239 Eye Shader Brush
For the outer lid and crease I applied Magnolia Makeup 104 Uptown Pigment (matte red-toned violet). MAC 217 Blending Brush
To define the outer V I used Magnolia Makeup 009 Just Black Pigment (matte black). MAC 217 Blending Brush
For highlight I used Bare Escentuals Clear Radiance All Over Face Color (shimmery light pink). MAC Large 252 Shader Brush
For my lower lashline I used the Magnolia Makeup Green Gliz Glitter (shimmery true green) with MAC Eyeliner Mixing Medium. MAC 212 Flat Definer Brush

BROWS:

I lined my lower waterline with L'Oreal HIP Cream Eyeliner in Black. Stila #28 Smudge Pot Brush
I used Too Faced Lash Injection Mascara for my lashes and added Beautee Senses Annie False Eyelashes for effect.

POLISH:
For my lips I used MUFE #31 Rouge Artist Intense Lipstick (creamy purple pink) topped with MAC Ban This! Dare To Wear Lipglass (shimmery red-toned violet).
