a look inspired by one of michelle phan's makeup tutorial. with some slight modification. i can't remember which video.

please excuse the blurry pic. tho it looks quite natural in the pic, it's more colorful in real life.

the product in focus is napoleon perdis loose dust in #20. the color swatch at the website does not reflect the real color. it's more shimmery dark pink. a friend got it as a gift but she doesn't need it and gave it to me. when i get a new toy, i must use it now! :)

top lid was lined with my favorite eye liner. most tutorials leave eye liner to last. i like to do it as the first step. then topped with eye shadows to lighten the color. i don't like a harsh black line.

dip a bit of the loose dust and apply to the center of the eyes and blend it out.

use a dark plum at the outer corner of the eyes and blend it inwards. and a white or pale color from the inner corner to 1/3 of the lid.

now the bottom lid. line 2/3 of the inner rim with a blue eye pencil. i used laura mercier kohl eye pencil in purple sapphire. a nice purplish blue. applied a blue shadow about 2/3 from the outer corner and a pale pinkish color from inner corner to about 1/2 of the lid.

for the blue i used edm eye shadow in 10 items or less (i don't see this color at the website. disontinued?) and for the pink romance novel.

it's probably better to make a video to demonstrate how it's done. it's too much trouble. i don't have the setup to do it. maybe someday...
