Magenta/Blue Duochrome Eyes

Monday, September 29, 2014

Good afternoon!

I've really been loving unusual duochrome looks lately. I mean, brown with a green/blue flash is rather commonplace (think about how many brands have such a shaodw; MAC, Too Faced, Kat von D, Urban Decay, etc) but I've seen some beautiful looks with magenta/blue and orange/golden green.

While rummaging through my makeup (currently half is still living on the main floor) I was thrilled to discover that I already owned such a color! Enter Femme Fatale Cosmetics Dispersion. A matte sort of brick red color with icy blue interference.

I patted a darker fuchsia into the outer V and a tiny bit of inky indigo as well. On the lower lids, I used a bit of a bright blue to further contrast against the reddish tones. I wanted the overall look to be really cool toned.

I also pulled out a fairly neutral lip color with a bit of cool fuchsia undertones to echo the blended out magenta around the eyes. BITE Beauty Shiraz.

I used:

Brows: Anastasia Brow Powder Duo in Granite
Face: Boscia B.B. Cream in Bronze* mixed with Dolce & Gabbana The Perfect Luminous Foundation, Graftobia Hi Def Glamour Creme Foundation (as concealer)
Eyes: LORAC Behind The Scenes Eye Primer, Wet'n'Wild I'm Seeing Triples LE trio, Stila Dahlia, Make Up Forever Aqua Eyes in Black, Red Cherry Lashes #43, Femme Fatale Cosmetics Dispersion, Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy
Lips: BITE Beauty Shiraz

Hope you are all having a very good week so far! What sort of makeup looks have you been into recently?
