V-Day Look 2012 #2

So here is look number 2, I went for a purple smokey eye and I used a range of products from different brands i.e. NYX, Inglot & Glamour Doll Eyes. I also wanted to test out my new Maybelline Eye studio Gel Liner that I bought the other day. I noticed you need quite a stiff brush when applying as its not as smooth as liquid liners which I am used to. 


So as usual I used NYX's True taupe as my transition colour, its a very light slightly shimmery taupe and helps the blending. I then darkened up the crease with Pine Nut. Pure skin was my highlight. To the middle of the lid I added Deep purple, by the way the name so doesn't reflect on the colour. Its more of a sheer mid toned purple : / ----then on the inner part of the lid I applied Secretive from Glamour doll eyes, its a light pink with a lovely iridescence that is gold toned. To darken up the crease I added my fave black from Inglot #65, I blended it slightly into the crease. Then between the black and mid toned purple I added Inglot #494 which is a dark purple. This I feel completed the look :)


P.S
for my lips I used NYX lipstick in Muse and Cafe Late' lipgloss

V-Day Look 2012

I felt like do a makeup look for Valentines day. I decided to use my Inglot palette that I have had for months and barely touched. I came up with a look that I named Peach Cranberry. As many know Inglot don't name their eye shadows, they are simply numbered.



  1. I used NYX's True Taupe in the Crease to help create a blended look.
  2. Then I added Inglot AMC #72 (which is a berry purple) to the outer corner, crease & slightly blended onto the lid. 
  3. To the lid I added AMC shine #48 which is a shimmery peach champagne eye shadow. 
  4. On the outer V I added AMC #65 which is black with silver glitters. 
  5. To the inner tear duct and brow bone I applied Shine #35 which is a frosty white.  
  6. I also used AMC #65 to line the lash line.
  7. Red Cherry Lashes #107
