Color Challenge: Purple and Yellow

 

Morning!! (I'm mentally still asleep).

Yesterday at makeup class one of my classmates said I shpuld do a purple + yellow makeup for her sometime.
... I got scared xD
'Cause I find that usually yellow looks really good only on darker skin tones.

And purple.... well, we don't want a bruised eye effect :D

But I took a challenge and as I got a day off today from school I tought I would try out a purple + yellow eye makeup.

Here's only one look for now. My eyes are so dry from washing the makeup away all the time in school + in home so they tear really easily. Can't create many looks on same day at the time, sorry :(

 

To achieve this look I used:

Face:
* Elite Fluide Perfection Foundation in "Opale" (Little too yellow for me)
* Meow Cosmetics mineral foundation in "Chausie (0-inquisitive)"
* Makeup For Ever Taupe eyeshadow for contour
* Makeup Geek Eyeshadow "Cupcake" as Blush (faded away in photo)

Eyes:
* Inglot base
* NYX Jumbo pencil "Milk"
* Makeup Geek e/s "Yellow Brick Road" (lid)
* Makeup Geek e/s "Goddes" (crease)
* BH Cosmetics 120 palette 2nd edition, 3 shades of purple (Lower lid)
* Inglot grey e/s (outer corner of the lower lid)

* Makeup Geek e/s "Gold Digger" (Highlight on the browbone and tear duct)
* Makeup Geek gel liner "Immortal" (Winged liner and upper waterline)
* Nyx Jumbo Pencil "Milk" (Lower waterline)

School makeuping: everyday makeup

Hiii, 

We have a makup and hair do period in school at the time. 

I so have waited this! :P 

Even the hair! ... At least for far as we started... I realized I hate doing hair for someone else. xD 

Today we did a everyday makeup.

 I felt little restricted, cause the teachers have their own style so they teach it to us... 

But I will and can do my own thing - they know I have experierence about doing makeup so they don't mind if I do something differently than others (also 'cause I will be going to competition). (Kauneus ja teveysmessut ;)) 

Besides, isn't makeup a form of art? U really can find your own style of doing it - would be dull to have strict rules :(.

The teacher showed the eye makeup to my model (to the other side). 

My classmate then said to me: 'now u have a pressure to make the pther match the teachers!' 

... Yup, I did felt little pressure after that :D 

But I think I did well. 

Here's my lovely model and classmate. Sorry the bad quality of the photo, phone camera boohoo :(

From this point of view, I did the left eye, teacher the right one (also made little touch ups for hers so that it matches to my style). 

I went for neutral colors, cause she had to go to work after school. 

Color range in this look: 

*Dark grey 

* Black 

* Shimmery white (tear duct higlight) 

* Medium brown 

* Eggshell white 

The whole makeup (face, brows, eyes) have been done with Ben Nye cosmetics.

Tommorrow I will try some pinks maybe, we'll see ;)
