A sizzling summery look featuring warm purple eyes and electric orange lips.
I've had these photos trapped on my
camera for over a month now, and only just got them off because a friend
gave me a card reader to use. Thank goodness it worked! My computer
software updated and somehow my computer now refuses to "speak" with my
Canon camera. All my technology is one step away from totally
outdated... but that's another story.
Anyway,
here's a look I had in mind for a while, though of course it turned out
nothing like what I imagined. I wanted smoky, warm purple eyes with a
bright orangey lip. Keep scrolling if you want details!

This look turned out ok I guess. I wish I'd used a darker purple on my outer corner; the purple I used wasn't quite dark enough. I'd originally pictured a more neon orange-red lipstick, but I wanted to use this new one I'd ordered. I still love the Maybelline Vivids line, I wear them all the time, often in combination with my beloved Wet n Wild Balm Stains. I do think it's warm and bright and summery, which I guess was the goal.
I think it turned out a bit 80s rock star, which is kind of awesome too :)
Thanks for reading!♥
