FOTD: Rocking the Violetta!



Hey Everyone, 

If you read my 'Eye Candy: My Purple Lip Products' post, you will know I am currently obsessed with fall's purple lip trend. Whether it's a light lilac gloss, or a bold berry lipstick, if it's purple I want it...NOW! Today, I decided to do a look using one of my favourite MAC lipsticks, Violetta, a bold pinky-purple with blue undertones. To co-ordinate with this bold lipstick (it's definitely not for those who are afraid of colour), I decided to use similar pink and purple hues on both my eyes and lips. Below is more information on the products in creating this look.





Eyes
MAC Eyeshadow in 'Of Summer' (inner 1/2 of lid)
MAC Eyeshadow in 'Swish' (outer 1/2 of lid)
MAC Eyeshadow in 'Petal Worship' (crease)
Yaby Eyeshadow in 'es146' (crease)
Givenchy Noir Couture Mascara




FACE
Urban Decay Naked Skin Foundation in '2.0' and '3.5'
NYC Matte Bronzer in 'Sunny'
Buxom True Hue Blush in 'Seduction'
MAC Mineralized Skinfinish in 'Lightscapade'




LIPS
MAC Lipstick in 'Violetta'


Do you like fall's purple lip trend? Would you be willing to rock MAC's Violetta'? Any great purple lip products you would recommend I try? Be sure to let me know in the comment section below.

  1. You look stunning, as always! Very pretty purple look that you're rockin! :-)

    I'm glad that purple lipstick is big this Fall, because I love it, and now have a reason to wear it more often!

    I also did a FOTD post on my blog today, if you wanna check it out.
