Lavender Meadow, Lavender Storm (Revlon)

—-

This look features Revlon’s Colorstay 12 Hours Eyeshadow Quad in Lavender Meadow. There’s nothing “meadow-y” about these 4 shades. I personally find them more reminiscent of a surreal storm.

Do beware that these shadows are sort of velvety (not highly metallic or shimmery, but not matte either) and work better over a good base.

—-

Step 1: Apply a black-grey base over the lids (e.g. ELF Licorice Cream Shadow Duo)

—-

Step 2: Taking the darkest shade of purple at the bottom of the quad, apply in the outer corners, bottom lash line, and up above the socket line for a very defined crease.

—-

Step 3: Apply the soft aqua-steel shade (3rd from the top) right in the center of the lids. This color is what is going to give the look some interesting contrast.

—-

Step 4: With the soft violet (2nd from top), apply along the inner half of the socket line, stretching out and up to meet the dark purple. Do not blend as you want the colors to all stand out a little.

—-

Step 5: Apply black liquid liner and false lashes to finish the eyes.

—-

And the finished look; a very colorful defined violet eye which would work for those with mono-lids.
