Makeup Look – Smoked out Purples with DIOR night butterfly

I was thinking of picking a DIOR Palette some time soon but the one I have was lying dead …. so what better way to do a look using a palette which has wonderful shades of Purples … from light lavender to violet to eggplant to black …. love the shades but the drawback is the color combinations are limited …..

Although I have done quite a few purple looks but with this palette there aren’t many … I picked this palette long time back and I think am gonna use the colors more and more now … loving me some Purples these days …

Applied MAC Painterly Paint Pot all over the lids , Applied the light lavender shade from the palette all over the lids

Applied Violet shade in the crease with blending brush

Darkened the crease with Eggplant Purple color layered over the violet shade ,

Applied the darkest shade on lower lash line extending from center till the end and applied the lightest shade from inner corners to the center , Applied Lancome Artliner and layered it with Eggplant Purple to make the liner look deep dark purple , hope you can see the difference in 2 eyes

Applied MAC’s Gana Blush as brow bone highlighter , Finished with MUFE Smokey Lash Mascara and MAC’s Graphblack on lower water line

I have The Balm timeBalm anti – wrinkle concealer in mid-medium and MUFE HD Foundation in # 125 on my face , On cheeks I have Benefit Sugarbomb Blush and On Lips I have Dior Addict High shine Lipstick in # 754 Flamenco Red

I hope you liked the soft smokey Purple eye look …. would love to do more of purples with same palette … am not giving enough justice to this wonderful DIOR I have …

      thanks again honey for the lovely name ….. 😀 the kurti was anmol’s gift ahhaha for mother’s day

      • Zara says:

        Ohhooo! To ye Anmol ke gift ka asar hai! No wonder Mumma is lukin all pretty and dolled up!

        I really do love the way u play around with colors…From personal experience I know it takes alotta guts to use vivid colors and step away from the usual browns and beige’s. Its amazing how much one can learn about a person even thru their makeup!! And I have a alot to learn from u Guru Pari!

        • rashmi says:

          • rashmi says:

            hahaha areee nahin nahin 😀 i wanted to use MAC’s impassioned lipstick which is hot fuchsia color ..
            on other hand i want to pick MAC NEON ORANGE color from new collection but confused 🙁 kya karon ??
            i loved the color but orange ??? how long i will use ??

          • Zara says:

            Ur totally right..the Neon orange wala wont be used much and its basically a fad..will fade away in a month or so…zyaada time to nahi rahega…but the impassioned lipstick is gorgeous and a shade one can keep wearing…

          • rashmi says:

            ohh yeah i have impassioned … was thinking what look to pair … its awesome color …
            for buying i was confused about neon orange so i think will skip and buy lady danger lipstick
            its deadly color …:D

          • Zara says:

            Hey..just checked out lady danger on google..had never heard of it b4..its a really vivid tomato red color!! Kinda reminds me of Revlons fire n ice lippy..

          • Zara says:

    • rashmi says:
