Soft Purple Eyes



I know the pictures are not the best as I had to take these at night with flash and had to lighten them a tad in Photoshop, but I wanted to snap a quick picture of the makeup I wore today. I filmed a video this evening (coming up soon) but didn't do a tutorial for this look. Since I will probably get questions from my viewers, I thought I'd post this blog to show you at least the products I used.

I wanted to make an homage to one of my favorite eyeshadows at the moment, which is Catrice Heidi Plum Nr. 280, a gorgeous smokey purple-grey matte shade, which I'm wearing in the crease. Best part is that these eyeshadows by Catrice are so inexpensive and available at drugstores here!

Eyes
MAC Bare Canvas Paint, MAC Dazzlelight e/s, Catrice Heidi Plum e/s, Ben Nye Toast e/s, Ben Nye 24/7 Eyeliner in Zero, Max Factor False Lash Effect mascara

    I am new to your site and I'm enjoying your tutorials. You look very beautiful. The foundation looks very smooth and creamy. I think this eye color pallette would look good on a variety of skin colors. I hope you do a tutorial.

  34. I just checked all the comments and saw that there's nobody from Brazil here, so here I am from Brazil to say that I loved it!
    I don't live in Rio (I live in the south, like the last state in the map)but it's look adorable the colors and really represent the city and the coutry, the happiness and people here :)
    I love your blog, so if you didn't know that someone in Brazil reads it, now you know it!

    Hugs, Kamyla (it spells Camila ;) heheh)
