Look Book Day 5: Blue Evening Make up- Teal Blue & Purple Smokey Eyes & Terracotta Lips
I know, I know..I skipped a day…but that’s because I told you I have joined back work. Also my in laws came yesterday…..See I am one of those few lucky woman who look forward to her in laws’ visit. I was totally excited and ended up cooking the entire dinner. Dum Gobi tamatar, Dal makhani & bengan ka bhurta and caramel custard. Burpppp!!!
Nevertheless, I have created a glamorous blue-purple smokey eye. Unlike the usual black/brown shadow to create the smokiness, I opted for the unusual shimmery purple and it came out pretty well. As I was too acid on eyes, went for a subdued lips- a rosy terracotta matte lip color.
Also because I wanted all the attention on the eyes, I kept hair away from face. Created a small retro bump on the crown and tied the hair into a bun. Didn’t go for any jewelry. Instead went for a rosey pink flower as a hair accessory.
