Another look from the MUA Poptastic Palette - I actually had two goes at this, as you'll see below. The first attempt wasn't all that successful - I used a purply-pink Nabi crayon as a base, which in hindsight was probably way past its use-by date (now safely tucked away in bin-land)...
So I repeated the same colour combo the next day using my beloved essence white kajal, with far more satisfactory results. The pink and the purple in this palette really do complement each other beautifully, so I'm glad I had another shot at it ♥
For comparison, the pic on the right is what I created the day before using the darker "dud" base - you can see how patchy and uneven the shadows are. Mind you I also spent less time (and mascara) on my lashes, and can really notice the difference that extra coat or two makes (note to self: take your time girl!)...
I added a little bit of Orbit (purple) from the SleekV2 matte palette in the crease, and the white kajal on the waterline...
I'm itching to try this same purple with either of the shimmery golds, and the tealy green with the deep pink. Sadly my holidays are over, and the ONLY good thing about going back to work this week is that I'll have a sure-bet five days to try out all the different combos lol...
Take care of you,

These colours are gorgeous together. Loving this look!

Aren't they just meant for each other Jasmine - I agree the right pink and the right purple are a match made in heaven ♥

Sweet Candy - bless you hon, you make me even MORE glad that I had another go at this combo ♥
DeleteYes, that first look was an absolute disaster...lol. Just kidding, but I do know what it's like to have something in mind, and the result is just nothing like what you wanted to achieve. In saying that, I do adore both looks. Pink and purple, what a fun combination, one of my faves xx
ReplyDeleteYou made me giggle Indie, thanks babe - ahh yes, the interminable problem of duds! Well I guess it comes with the territory, but thank goodness we can wash it all off and start again ha ha ♥
DeletePurple is so pretty! You're inspiring me to start on a bit of a purple collection myself - I might have to do a look soon!
ReplyDeleteOh please please please TP - I reckon purple would look just so gorgeous on you hon, go for it, and soon I hope ♥
DeleteThis is so beautiful! Pink & purple is a classic pairing which always looks good.
ReplyDeleteI'm eager to see what you do with those two golds too!
Thanks neurotic, I'm thrilled you like it ♥ The golds are coming up - Australia Day will be a good excuse to try them out, just have to find the right green in my collection to go with them xxx
