Series: Pretty in Pink_Look 4: pink glitter smoky eye

Hello!

Today's look was the one I wore to my all-pink event. I spent a fair while figuring out what to do and this is what I came up with. I hope you'll like it!

Series: Pretty in Pink_Look 3 GLITTER!

Hello!

Do you need more pink in your life? Welcome back to the Pretty in Pink eye look series! My first eye look was soft and pretty, the second was all about a very bright pink shadow and graphic eyeliner combination and today I went almost all out with glitter.

Series: Pretty in Pink_Look 1

Hello!

Have you seen the latest beauty look to come out of Chanel's Cruise 2012-13 Collection? It's very pink. Pink eyeshadow is a bit scary for me. I have friends who wear it well, but for the most part I feel that with my pale complexion, it makes me look a bit sick. I do, however, have a pink-themed event coming up. So, all things considered, I felt that I should try out some pink eyeshadow looks. I will be posting the results of my quest to find a pink eyeshadow look that doesn't make me look ill in a Pretty in Pink eye look series.. Without further ado, here is Look 1:

Halloween Special

Hello!

Do you celebrate Halloween? I usually don't. It's not a traditional holiday here, it's something that's been imported from the US in recent years. I'm way too lazy to get a good costume, so for the most part, I don't bother. There is ONE exception. I have always loved the insanely dramatic eye makeup Elizabeth Taylor had as Cleopatra. Despite not celebrating this myself, I am majorly procrastinating right now and I decided to replicate the look (as best I could). Now that I'm done, I feel like this is wasted effort and kind of wish there was a Halloween party I could go to tonight :-(

Variations on a theme_sparkly purple eyes

Hello!

While I'm on a purple eyeshadow roll, here's another look I did using the Napoleon Perdis Loose Eye Dust in Violet Femme and L'Oreal Color Infallible Purple Obsession (plus fake eyelashes and Make Up Store glitter eyeliner in soft pink).

Sparkly Purple Birthday Eye Look

Hello!

As promised, you get to see why I wanted the L'Oreal Color Infallible in Purple Obsession. I used it for this look (a birthday look for me). I spent ages finding exactly the right shades of purple for this look and I was very happy with how it turned out (got some nice compliments on my makeup, too- always a plus!).
