I am not wearing any face makeup, but today I decided to play around with my makeup a bit and came up with a fun purple eye makeup look! Please give your honest feedback.

Products Used:
• Maybelline Color Tattoo (barely branded)
• Mary Kay Mineral Eyeshadow (Sweet Plum)
• Estée Lauder Eyeshadow (Violet)
• Estée Lauder Eyeshadow (Crease)
(Liner)
• Estée Lauder Eyeshadow (Daylight)
• Physicians Formula Eyeliner (3 set / black & blue)
• Maybelline The Rocket Mascara
• Covergirl Clump Crusher Mascara
___________________________________
How I Applied:
1.) I started by applying the color tattoo for a base
2.) I placed the Mary Kay eyeshadow all over the lid
3.) I used the violet shade in the crease with a big dome brush
4.) I placed the crease color in with a fluffy brush
5.) I used the dark liner color in the outer v with a small crease brush and blended it with a big fluffy brush
6.) I used the white shade for highlighting the inner tear duct and brow bone
7.) I curled my lashes and used the black eyeliner for the upper lash line and the blue for the water line
8.) I applied a thin layer of each mascara and combed them out in between each mascara
___________________________________
What I liked and What I'd Change:
Liked: I like the purples and how different it is than my everyday neutrals. I think the colors look nicely together
Change: I feel like I could've done better blending and I don't know what else, that's why I'm asking you (;

Is this something I should do again? What colors should I use next time? Any feedback and criticism is welcome!

Try using a matte almost dark purple for the crease to make everything look nice

Thank you! It was really dark when I first applied it, but I accidentally got it in places I didn't want it so I rubbed it off and it took a lot of color away! I am definitely going to try reapplying that dark color though! Thank you ðŸ˜Š

It's pretty but it's not super pigmented
Maybe next time try going for a super bold and bright purple look :)

Okay! Thanks Qwaserght (: I might try applying a better base or primer to see if it will make the colors stand out more! My color tattoo was a little dry and these are nice quality shadows!

You also said you rubbed some off so that may be why too
But it still looks really good

Yeah.. probably! I applied more and it looks a lot better! The lighting is really bad right now though so if I wear this makeup again tomorrow, I'll update y'all! Thank you for the advice ðŸ˜Š

Primers definitely helps with better pigmentation and helps your shadow stay crease free. I use too faced shadow insurance and I love it, I have also used UD primer I forget what it's called though haha I would also say if you are worried about the shadow not getting in places you don't want, put a piece of tape on the edge of your eye and when you take it away it looks like a wing but with shadow and can look really cool. So then you can go crazy with super pigmented shadows :) hoped this helped!
