Purple Cut Crease

I cut and dyed my hair two weeks ago and can I just say how good it feels to change your hair sometimes?
My hair is not what this post is about but I wanted to mention it because it was the colour of my hair that inspired me to do this look. Or the colour I was hoping it to be. It is more red and less purple than I hoped but it looks almost black in pictures. I used the Schwarzkopf Brilliance in 899 Red Violet when I dyed it but since mt hair was red before it turned out more red than purple.





A dramatic cut crease,quite strong contour and dark purple lips. Obviously this isn't really an everyday makeup but I had so much fun doing it and I am really happy with the result.

Of course there are things I could improve.
- I don't think I have done a this dramatic cut crease before so it was quite hard to see where to do the line and I think this is something that needs practice to become really good at.
- The lip line could be better and sharper but I already knew that I'm not the best with lip liner so that's not a surprise.

So even though I know what I want to improve I'm so pleased with this look! And I love doing these kind of more creative looks.

I don't remember exactly what products I used but I think it was mostly eyeshadows from the Sleek Ultra Mattes V2 and Urban Decay Vice 2 on the eyes, I know I used the NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk on my eyelids and both the lipliner and lipstick are from IsaDora. The lipliner is in the colour Zinfandel and the lipstick in Sweet Lilac.
