Smoky Purple Look Using Fyrinnae and Aromaleigh

I'm slowly but surely coming back to life. Exams are over so I can finally have a break. WHEW. It's been kind of a tough semester. I had a geology lab, 2 art history classes (don't underestimate them, they're as hard as any history class), and a psychology class. Then, during exam week, I had THREE of those exams all in one day. Needless to say, I'm pretty damn glad that's over.
Anyway, yesterday my outfit was totally black so I could have worn pretty much any color combination. I asked my mom to go through my stash and pick out some colors for me and she picked out Aromaleigh's "Lilac" from the Pure Eyes Frost collection, and Fyrinnae's Shinigami. I was expecting her to pick out some boring neutrals but she surprised me.


Eyes:
-TFSI
-Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy
-Fyrinnae "Shinigami" in the crease
-Aromaleigh "Frutti di Bosco" outer 1/2 of lid and lower lashline
-Aromaleigh "Lilac" on main lid and blended up to brow bone
-NYX jumbo eye pencil in "Milk" on inner corners
-Kat Von D black tattoo liner pen on upper lashline
-Maybelline Unstoppable black eyeliner on the waterline
-Maybelline Falsies black mascara

Cheeks:
-Clinique "Smoldering Plum"

Lips:
-NYX lipliner in "Pinky"
-Lime Crime "Airborne Unicorn" (I know you guys hate me for it but this is seriously one of my new favorite lipsticks)

Having my mom pick out colors for me was fun. It made it easy for me to come up with a look. If anyone has any color combinations you'd like to suggest for me, let me know! The weirder the better. I've been sort of uninspired lately, so hopefully that will help.

Have a lovely evening!

  1. Yay for exams being over! Love the look! How interesting you had your mom pick out colors. I'm guessing my mother would get overwhelmed by my stash and not even know where to start!

  6. Ha! I get crap almost every time I wear Archetype shadows (because they have lame CS) so I totally get the Lime Crime thing.
    Anyway, you look really lovely and it's sweet that she picked out such great colours for you!

  7. Love this look, the colours look great together. I understand your pain on the finals thing. For me, the past two weeks have been full of essays. Next week is my finals, then I'm done!

    You should do a blue and orange or silver and green.
