Soft purple night

Hey, guys! I hope you are all well!

Today's look is a soft, but very intricate. The camera just didn't want to show all of the shaded from the colors. This look was also requested for a wedding ceremony. So here we go:


Main focus is... as you can tell....a purple and silver look. I did not use any black or white, not wanting to make the look harsh. The purpose is a soft smoke, that will lift the eye, or make them seem tired.

Order of the color: (I used tape, to make the line perfect; use some small pieces of tape, which you stick on from about 2mm under the eye, till the end of your brow)
- base: light lilac;
- crease: mouve;
- outer corner: dark lilac;
- deep inner corner: silver;
- under the eye: dark lilac (diffuse it with a light lilac and the to the silver from the inner corner)
You can clean the look and also use as a highlight a soft beige shadow or something that compliments best your skin color. Top it off with a liquid liner on the top lashes and a black liner on the lower waterline. Mascara..or, why not some lashes....and you're done.


The rest of my face was simple... the usual steps that are done: hydrating cream, foundation (mineral), concealer (mineral) and light dust of powder (again, mineral)...some bronzer and pink blush. I started using so many mineral, since my face acted really lousy for the past few months. I brought only vegan, mineral products and my skin is coming back on the right side.

For the lips, I used a cherry mat lipgloss, which had a more thick consistency.


I also wish to say though this post thanks to some close friends, that actually still bear with my crazy organic hunts, and getting me some. Thank you so much! I'll make a haul on some of the stuff I brought.

I do hope you enjoy the look. I'm sorry I'm not posting so much as I used to...but it's a busy time of the year and I'm getting ready for my Bachelors exam and with my future Master program.

Have fun and have an easy week!
Kissu.
