Blue Skies, Blue Eyes

I've been on a bit of a blue kick lately, which is odd for me. Blue eyeshadow typically scares the bajeebus out of me. It's a harder color to pull off, blend, and well just over all, use.



 I was watching Petrilude's channel on YouTube, and he did a look using neon blue and a bright yellow color. I tried that and it look pretty much god awful, plus I was going to work and I didn't need to look like I just stepped off of the street corner. So! I slapped some "Humid" on top of the "Chrome Yellow" I originally had on my lid, and it came out this really pretty green color hahah. I blended "Jewel Blue" in the crease and I put it on top of my UD 24/7 Liner in the royal blue color. I fudge up with the liner, but meh, it was just a Sunday evening shift. I wasn't entirely too worried!

Ready for take off

This look was inspired by a comment i saw on makeupgeek's forum by Nepenthe. She mentioned to get that "purple" look it was actually M.A.C.'s "Stars N' Rockets" on a black base. I have both, so I immediately went to go play in my makeup!

Item's Used:

Hard Candy's Foiled Again Shimmer Stick in black (blended out all over the lid)
UDPP on lowerlash line
M.A.C.'s Stars N' Rockets all over lid/inner lash line
M.A.C.'s Jewel Blue in crease/outter lash line
M.A.C.'s Fluidline in Blacktrack
Urban Decay's Heavy Metal Glitter Liner in the translucent rainbow color.
Maybelline's Great Lash in Black Black

Pardon the stupid expression on my face, hahah, sometimes i just get a bit TOO excited when i'm taking pictures! I wish my camera would've picked up the purple tone a bit more from Stars N' Rockets, it's such a beautiful tone in person, and depending on how you move it really showed the DuoChrome effect.

Items on the rest of my face:
Loreal's Studio Effect's, color corrector in green
Hard Candy's color corrector palette in fair/light
Revlon's Custom Color Foundation setting 1 and 2 mixed
(they never put enough of each setting in the container i swear!)
Origin's Blush in Spice
Hard Candy's  Baked Blush in Coral

Eyebrows are filled with M.A.C.'s Cranberry and Mulch.


I'm not 100 percent sure what happened in the center of my lashes in this picture. The glitter liner probably attacked!
