Today's Vice 3 look.

Nov 26, 2014

Hey all, it's been a while since I've posted any makeup looks, and today, since I'm home for Thanksgiving break, I decided to see what I came up with. I can't lie, I was inspired by a pair of burgundy/purple toned shoes that I bought yesterday, so I'm wearing this eye makeup with those shoes and a white sweater (and jeans, I'm definitely wearing pants guys!). I wanted to do a colored smokey eye, so that's what I went for. I gave myself a base of Urban Decay's Blackheart eyeliner, which is black but has pink glitter in it, I think it worked well. So I smudged that everywhere, and then I went in with Bondage all over the lid; the sparkles from the eyeliner still show up a bit and I think that looks super cool. I know that the pictures look like I still need to blend a bit, but for the life of me I couldn't get the lighting or my camera to work out right, because in real life my eyeshadow is actually blended. It's super frustrating that it wouldn't show up. Anyway, other products used:
-The Vice 3 palette, shades Undone, Alchemy and Bondage
-Urban Decay Primer Potion
-Benefit Gimme Brow in Brunette
-Dior Diorshow Lash Primer
-Per-fekt Lash Perfection Gel

That's it for this look, let me know how it is! As always, thoughts, comments, suggestions and opinions are welcome!

It looks amazing! I'm sure it looks awesome in RL.. phone cameras suck :(

True that. My phone also started freaking out this morning (because it's an iPhone 4, I've had it for 2 years and I'm almost entirely positive that they're designed to crap out after 2 years) so now I can't text, receive phone calls, or do anything a phone should actually do.

The combination of colors in your eyeshadow and your hair look really cool together

Let me see if I have some other palettes that may work for you :) have you looked at the Tarte Rainforest after dark? That has a similar deep purple in it, as well as a bunch of wearable shades. I believe it's still at Ulta, so that's an option. The other one I would suggest would be the Kat Von D Chrysalis palette, it has a very pretty dark purple, as well as a blue which you may like, and a bunch of neutrals. Here are some looks with those two, Tarte on the left and KVD on the right (I can give closeups if you want)

I love it! The colors are just gorgeous on your eyes.

This is wonderful. I really wanted to a strong smokey eye with green and gray today and it was the ultimate disaster. I like that you've kept this simple. Two colors and a liner, with pretty straightforward placement. Alchemy blends out like a dream on you. Lovely!

Update, I took better pictures! This is how it really looks. Thank you all so much :) Jenny, you've inspired me to try a grey and green smokey eye tomorrow! Thanks so much, I'm actually really happy with just the three colors that I used (the third is under my brow, and is the reason that Alchemy blended out nicely!) but I think that colorful smokey eyes don't get enough credit. So many people want to do straight black or brown, and I'm a fan of purple or blue or green :) I'd also like to say that once I learned how to correctly do a smokey eye, it became one of the easiest looks in the world.

I'm in love with those colors!! How did you learn how to do a smokey eye? every time I attempt to do one it looks like I have a black eye lol.

Nov 26, 2014

Hannah K.

I took Jackie's advice :) I do it slightly differently but basically I smudge a ton of eyeliner on my top lid, and blend it out with my finger. Then I take a shade that's basically my skin tone and I put that under my brow and drag it down to my crease. Then, I apply the darkest shade over the eyeliner and stop right inside my natural crease. I take the medium color and I make basically a line right along the edge of the dark color. Then, I blend. That's really it :)

I love it! You have such pretty eyes. How do you like that palette? That's what I'm getting for Christmas and I can't wait.

Nov 26, 2014

Kitty K.

Yesss it looks awesome!
I find the best way is to take pictures outside. I just spin around until I find the best angle. Indoor lighting sucks and it makes the phone cameras quality like 10000 percent better.

Kitty, I always stand next to a window, I have a massive bay window in my room I just don't know what was happening today! Lol. Thanks :)

Taylor, I love it! I think it's super pretty and smooth, and I like the shade range a lot. Here's another look with the same palette, it's really easy to work with! The colors all just work well together, plus there's always at least one shade that works with each eye color. Mine happens to be Bondage, lol. I also just think that it's an overall perfect palette, it has a ton of neutrals and brights (11 neutrals and 9 brights, I think) which means you can do literally whatever you want with it. That's pretty ideal for me, I don't like supplemental palettes :)

The Tarte one doesn't have any green...? I'm including a picture of the one I mean. I'll swatch the Vice 3 for you when I get home, hopefully with a new phone that actually works! :)
