FOTD: Mad for Mauve

Posted by Halifax @ Sparkled Beauty

A new FOTD, a light smoky purply mauve with a pop of green.

Main products from the Maybelline EyeStudio:
- Color Plush Ready-to-Wear Palette in Mad for Mauve
- Color Plush Ready-to-Wear Palette in Irresistibly Ivy
- XXL Pro Volume Mascara
- Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner in Blackest Black.

Other products:
- Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse Foundation
- Lancome Color Fever lipstick in Hot Stuff
- Marcelle Vita-Lip Plumping Gloss in Nude
- VOV Color Song Blusher #18
- MAC Eye Kohl liner in Minted
- Rimmel Eye Twist Duo Liner and Shadow in Two's Company.

Steps to achieve the look:
- Use the ligh pinkish purple (second on the left)of the Mad for Mauve palette all over the lid
- With the fluffy blending brush, apply the dark mauve colour (on the right) of the same palette in the inner corners and outer corners and blend inward

- Dab the green colour of the same palette in the middle of the lids and blend out to meet the mauve colour
- Use the lightest colour of the Irresistibly Ivy palette for brow bone highlight

- Line my upper lash lines with the gel eyeliner
- Line my lower lash line with MAC kohl liner and go over it with the green colour from the Mad for Mauve palette
- Curl my lashes and apply mascara
- Fill in my brows with a the brown liner end of the Rimmel Eye Twist
- Apply blush, lipstick and gloss.

And this is the final look. I wore this out for a blizzard treat with Squirt on Sunday afternoon. Darken the crease a bit and this could be a night look, easy peasy.

Have a good day, everyone! We have had drizzle for the last 2 days now, no sun. Sad!
