I made a smoky lilac look using Aromaleigh's Valentine limited edition shadows, and some of my newly acquired MAC shadows. To refresh our memory, here are the shades again:
Also, for the first time in months, I've used my Meow mineral foundation in the Flawless Feline formula, and I forgot how smooth and flawless-looking this brand is. I usually wear it during summer because it feels so light and airy, I feel like I am not wearing any makeup at all. I tried it again when I saw it sitting in a corner in my dresser drawer, and I'm so glad I did. Love this foundation to bits!
Here's a quick tutorial on the eye look. All products MAC unless otherwise noted:
Apply Soft Ochre paint pot all over lid and brows. Smooth with finger. With a fluffy shader brush, apply Fresco Rose paint pot on lid. Apply Beige-ing shadestick on lower lashline to prevent smudging of shadows.
Using Loew Cornell Maxine's Mop 3/8" brush (or MAC 239), apply Aromaleigh shadow in Sweet Nothings on the inner 2/3 of the lid foiled using Charged Waters.
Using same brush, apply a little bit of Beautiful Girl Minerals mineral shadow in Magical and apply on outer lid dry.
Using the 224 brush, apply Flirty Number shadow on crease.
Using the 224, apply Shale on crease blending into Flirty Number.
Apply Fascinating eye kohl on inner corners, then apply Yogurt over it using the 219 brush.
Using the larger crease contouring brush from Essence of Beauty, apply Shadowy Lady shadow on crease going down making a V-shape. Blend well with the 224.
Using the 227 brush, apply Yogurt on browbone to highlight.
Apply Blacktrack fluidline, Urban Decay 24/7 liner in Zero to tightline and on waterline, Sweet Nothings on inner half of lower lashline and Shadowy Lady on outer half of lower lashline. Apply Red Cherry falsies #1.

super pretty look and I love the lashes!!!
My Valentine samples are OTW, can't wait to play with them! Sweet Nothing looks light. Can you do EOTD with Sneak a Peek :)? Thanks!
Nikki- thanks! :)
Cavano- Sweet Nothings has similar undertons, but I swatched them again and I think Chocolate Heart is closest to Sneak a Peek. I will keep your request in mind!
