Get The Look: Dramatic, Purple Smokey Eyes

I have really been loving my Morphe Brushes 35N palette lately so it was just a matter of time before I started using all the gorgeous purples scattered throughout! I used a very neutral, matte taupe all over the eye to help all my shadows blend better. Then, I added some of the deepest purple color in the palette on the inner and outer corners. Once that was blended out, I used the color ‘Garnet’ from the Lorac Pro Palette in the center of the lid. I applied this with my finger and just patted it down into the taupe-y color that was already underneath. Lastly, I used a deeper brown color to blend out the crease and transition area so the purple wasn’t so harsh.

Under the eye, I used that same deep purple all over the last line. With a detailing brush, I picked up some more of that ‘Garnet’ on the inner half of the lower lash line. To finish that area off, I used the color ‘Gold’, also from the Lorac Pro Palette, in the inner corner.

I was just “meh’ about the outcome of this look. I definitely think there are some things I could have done better and I am glad I finished it because I learned a lot for next time! Practice makes perfect (eventually, LOL)!
