Plush Purple and Gold Makeup Look

Hi dear all,

The above mentioned look, as the name suggests is plush, purple and golden. It is apt for an evening out or a party or wedding or such.

This look can also be an alternative for black smokey eyes. If you find black to stark for your taste, this look can give you dramatic eyes and you won’t have to worry about Panda eyes.

So let’s get started….

Here are things I am using for the look-

For Face:

  • Maxfactor Age Renew Foundation in Bronze
  • Maybelline Whitestay UV compact in Fawn
  • Colorbar Peachy Rose Blush
  • Colorbar Just Earth Blush

For face Plush Purple and Golden Makeup Look

For Eyes:

  • MAC Veluxe e/s in Trax (A jewel toned purple with a looot of golden shimmer)
  • MAC matte in e/s in Embark (A dark matte brown)
  • MAC Frosted e/s Bagatelle (A pure solid gold)
  • Lakme Intense Shine liquid Eyeliner in Black
  • Colorbar i-define pencil in Desert Glow
  • Maybelline Colossal Volume Express mascara
  • Lotus Herbal kajal

For eyes Plush Purple and Golden Makeup Look

For Lips:

  • Colorbar Metallic lipstick in Pleasure
  • Maybelline Watershine Gloss

For Lips Plush Purple and Golden Makeup Look

Let’s start painting!!!

  • On a cleansed, toned and moisturized face, apply foundation and concealer to create a flawless base.
  • I have used compact powder to get a matte finish.

Bare face Plush Purple and Golden Makeup Look

  • Apply an eye shadow primer on your lids. I use a thin layer of concealer for the same.
  • Colour your entire lid in the purple colour.

Lid1 Plush Purple and Golden Makeup Look

  • Apply the dark brown colour in the crease and outer corner of your eye.

Crease Plush Purple and Golden Makeup Look

  • Blend well.

Blended Plush Purple and Golden Makeup Look

  • Apply a golden eye shadow on the brow bone to create a stark contrast which enhances the lid colour.

Highlight Plush Purple and Golden Makeup Look

  • Apply the golden e/s on the outer corner of lower lash line.
  • Next, draw a thin line with the black eye liner on the upper lash line.
  • You can wing it out for added drama.

  • Do up both the eyes.

12.    Draw a thick line with the gold pencil on the lower lash line. Apply Kajal on the waterline.

13.    Curl your lashes and apply 2-3 coats of mascara. Again, false eyelashes will add a lot of drama.

  • Here’s the finished Eye look…

  • Finish the look by applying a hint of blush in the hollows of cheek and highlight the apples of your cheek. (Thanks for the tip Rati… Looks awesome!!!)
  • Apply a nude, metallic or golden lipstick to round off the plush look.

Here’s the final pic-

you know , M. I loved how you have taken piccy of the finished eye look. It’s naught, and sexy in its own way.

Btw how much gold eye shadow do you use? :P There is already a dent in the apparently new eyeshadow palette.

The look is outstanding. I recently got a similar purple shade. Let’s see how it turns out one me..And ummm I have a gold from the Lakme eye pot.

:-* :-*

Rati…

I need your help!!

I wanted to get the Golden eyepot from Lakme. When I enquired in Lakme counter, they say its discontinued and only Jade is in the market now. Any idea?

Reply

Rati July 28, 2010 at 2:02 pm

oh,, i will find that out Poornima. I just hope they have not discontinued because they have come up with those disgusting eye magics. :(

I will find out pakka.

Poornima Narayan July 28, 2010 at 5:47 pm

Thanks in advance..In fact when I asked for Eyepot, the SA gave me this answer and suggested the Eyemagic instead..yikes..It was nothing but gold specks in a gel base.

Rati July 28, 2010 at 5:52 pm

I know that’s rubbish. I would be going out in a day or two and I’ll find out. :)
better.
I wonder what were they thin king. Oil and water never mix and so is the case with gel and glitter. They’d rather come up with pigments, that would have been so better. :-/

hi Mrunmayee..
a :yes: for ur eye makeup n the nice look.. bt a lil use of an eyebrow pencil or just a dab of ur lip balm or even a moisturiser can make ur eyebrows luk more glossy n dark (compared wid the dark eyes)..

Reply

Mrunmayee July 28, 2010 at 2:16 pm

Thanks for the tip Nids…

I do have very sparse eyebrows… So I look awkward with eyebrow pencils…

But I have not filled in my eyebrows here… I’ll keep in mind ur suggestion next time..

Reply

Jane July 28, 2010 at 4:17 pm

Mrun – Try dabbing some castor oil on your brows every night..have heard that it promotes luscious brows/eyelashes..My sis used to do it before her marriage and it did work…you’ll look more pretty with a defined eyebrow..I have sprse eyebrows too.. :(

Mrunmayee July 28, 2010 at 5:12 pm

I bet Radhika and Jomol will love this tip… :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

But I’ll do try, i swear… :-)

I always thought that golds are better suited as highlighterws for duysky skin than silvers….

I always use gold when I am doing bold eye looks…
