Blues and Purples...

Colorful Rainbow Eyes

Hello everyone! Today I decided to get a bit more colorful and creative with my eye look. I used mostly eye shadows from the Kat Von D Metal Matte palette (sorry, it was LE but I will try and find some similar shades). I did use one shade from the Anastasia Beverly Hills Subculture palette. If you would like to know how I created this look, keep on reading!


I primed my lids with the NYX eye shadow primer and set that with the shade Cream from Lorac Pro palette.


I then took the shade Silk, which is a matte pinky purple shade (Colourpop Tang, Makeup Geek Petal Pusher).


I applied the shade Ignite (a metal). This shade is a light medium aqua shade (similar colors are Makeup Geek Glass Slipper, or Nars Bavaria).


I applied the shade Nebula, which is another of the crushed metal shades. I applied this on the middle of the lid and blended a bit into the shade Ignite. This is an intense royal blue with shimmer (similar shades: UD Radium, and Colourpop Two Piece).


For the outer v, I took the shade Ribbon, which is a matte rich purple and applied to the outer third of the lid blending towards Nebula and the crease. (similar shades: ABH Violet, and MAC Indian Pink). 


Then, using my ABH Subculture palette, I applied the shade New Wave, which is a pumpkin burnt orange shade, and applied that to the crease over the color silk. I applied this to warm up the look a bit. (similar shades: Chickadee from Makeup Geek. Please note, this palette is permanent so it is still available). 


To correct and conceal the under eyes, I used benefit Boi-ing corrector and the Tarte Rainforest of the Sea concealer in fair-light.


For foundation, I mixed a bit of the Smashbox Studio skin in 0.5 with a bit of the Tarte Rainforest of the Sea in fair light neutral. 


To set everything, I used Laura Mercier translucent setting powder.


I filled in my brows with the shade espresso from the Lorac Pro palette and set the brows with the essence make me brow gel.


For a brow bone and inner corner highlight, I used the shade light pink from the Lorac Pro palette.


To contour, I used the shade Taupe from Lorac Pro.


I used the shade Mauve from the Lorac Pro palette as a blush.


For a face highlight, I used the shade Nude (a shimmery light pink shade) and applied that to my cheekbones.


I smudged a bit of that dark purple (ribbon) to the lower lash line).


I set my makeup using the UD all nighter setting spray.


I created a wing on the upper lid using Tarte Sex Kitten liner.


For mascara, I used my sample It Superhero mascara and applied two coats to the top lashes.


To finish off the look, I applied iSOCiETY COSMETICS vinyl liquid lipstick in the shade Lollipop.

I hope you enjoyed this look! I definitely enjoyed creating it!

Thanks for reading!
