Grape Pop!

Hey all! Purple is such a great color to use when I want to play up the more romantic and feminine side of makeup (vs a dark sultry smokey eye). I don't deal with pinks normally, so purple is my go to! Besides, I always find purple looks so pretty with brown eyes. Anyway, I hope you all enjoy this look.

Nicki Minaj - Moment 4 Life

I lovedddd this particular look from Nicki Minaj's Moment 4 Life video. The teal eyeliner popped out so much and looked so gorgeous to me that I HAD to try it out. Now granted, this would have worked a lot better had a used a waterproof teal eyeliner, but I used what I had to give you guys an idea of how to do it.. shape-wise and whatnot. Hope I got some wheels turning in your mind. When I was younger I used to wear this shadow on my lower lash-line all the time, so it can work, but it definitely won't have the same staying power as a waterproof liner. Stating the obvious, but just giving you a heads-up! Here are the products I used, remember that when it comes to foundation/concealer use what works for you formula wise and color wise ;)

Naked Palette!

If you're looking for a neutral yet dramatic look, here you go. For some reason it reminds me of lions. Not quite sure why. Maybe it's the slight cat eye effect paired with the different shades of brown. I can't get the image of Nala out my mind when I see this tutorial. I'm strange, though, so never mind that! Lol!
