In case I've never mentioned it, or it's not totally obvious, my favorite color is purple. Purple edges out teal by just a bit - I love them both. But, purple is the king of colors for me. Lately, I've been wearing it on my eyes every single day. Today is no exception! I used the simple combination of three shadows. The purple is a Clarins blue/purple duochrome called 26- Violet Electric/Vibrant Violet. The duochome shows up nicely in some of the photos, but fails to dazzle in real life. I did discover that layering it over a black base really makes the blue of the duochrome come out to play! I'll have to try a look with that sometime.... Hmmm, the cogwheels are already turning!
On my brow bone I have a simple matte, vanilla kind of color. I believe it's called Positive by Lancome. It matches my skintone exactly, so I love to use it to blend colors up to my brow bone. You can even use your regular face powder to do that, but I just happen to love the smoothness of Positive.
The star of this show though is the bright silver foil color on my inner corner. This is the super smooth, ultra pigmented silver from the L'Oreal HIP duo Platinum. For a drug store buy, this has to be one of the smoothest, most pigmented colors I've ever used. It looks like a foiled pigment, but no! It comes out of the pan just like that! Everyone has commented on how cool this bling bling looks on the corner of my eyes.
Will there be more purple next time? Who knows! But let's be honest, probably!
Love 'n' Bubbles!
