The Penguin Makeup Challenge, Week 2: Black & Color

I know I'm SUPER late with this post, but life has been super busy. I just found time today to sit and play with makeup and here's what I came up with ...

Lime Crime Twilight Urban Decay Black Out Urban Decay 24/7 Liquid Liner in Perversion Urban Decay 24/7 Pencil Liner in Ransom Maybelline Pop of Purple Mascara (lower lashes) Tape (for sharp lines on outer eye) Anastasia Brow Liner in Dark Brunette Revlon False Lashes in Long Volumizing

I went super strict with the "& Color" and only used one color - Lime Crime Twilight. It had to be a purple!! =) I had hoped to do something drastically different than my last look, but it looks more similar than I had intended. Oh well.

For the upper lid, I applied a sheer wash of Lime Crime Twilight then used Urban Decay Black Out and blended it toward the center of the eye. For the bottom lid, I outlined the colored area with Urban Decay Ransom, filled it in, and pat on Lime Crime Twilight.

Lime Crime Twilight is gorgeous. Beautiful medium purple with blue sheen. Reminds me of Urban Decay Ransom, which is why I put them together.

This was my first time using Maybelline Pop of Purple mascara and I wasn't too impressed. It was pretty dry and I could barely tell I had it on my lashes. I applied three coats and then gave up. I applied Lime Crime Twilight on top of the lashes while they were wet with my last coat of mascara. I may try using it again, but so far, no me gusta.

Hope you enjoyed and thanks for reading!

    1. On top, I used a piece of tape that I had applied/removed to the back of my hand a few times to get out most of the stickiness, then put it on my eye, applied makeup, then gently peeled off. On bottom, I used a makeup wipe to clean up the edge.
