FOTD: Bold Lip with Purple Liner



Happy Saturday everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful week and are ready for the weekend. I thought that I would kick off this weekend with a Face of the Day. Today's makeup was inspired by this bold lip color that I have been falling in love with. I also wanted to make my brow eyes stand out. Purple liner is a great way to make your brown eyes pop! It can make the brown appear brighter and more lively. 

This photo was taken in natural lighting without flash.












Here is an upclose shot of my eyes today. As you can tell, I only put the liner on my lower waterline. I wanted just a subtle pop of color on the eyes.  Using a colorful liner on the eyes when the rest of the face is neutral is a great way to incorporate color without going overboard.
 The photo to the right was taken in natural lighting without flash. This photo shows what my eyelids actually look like. Having hooded eyes makes it very difficult to see all of the hardwork that I put into my eyes. 

I took a bright shimmer color all over the lid and a medium taupe through the crease. I used a mix of a black and a somewhat purple shade in the outer corner to darken up the eyes just a little bit. I lined my top lash line with black liquid eyeliner. I finished off the eyes with a few coats of mascara.
