I highlighted my face with loose powder placed generously in the areas I wanted highlighted after which I proceeded to get my eye makeup done. In this look, I extended the powder up to the tail of my eyebrows. I must say that this really helped to lift my eyes as can be seen from the full face pictures.

| I made sure to blend out the line of the powder while contouring my face. |

| see how the corners of my eyes are lifted. I also love the way my under-eye area is highlighted. |
Products I used
Sleek creme-to-powder foundations & Sleek powders
Iman dark Purple eyeshadow (the name is off)
BMPro eye shadow in 700 (as blush)
Avon lip gloss

Smokey eyes with a purple eyeshadow. Now, that's really cool because it means I am not restricted to black alone. Thanks Barbara!
ReplyDeleteOh yes definitely. I can't remember the last time I did a smokey eye with black cos its so long ago. Perhaps I should do a smokey eye series *thinking*.
DeleteYou can achieve a smokey eye with a variety of colours. Popularly called the colourful smokey eye, it's a lot of fun.
