Purple-smerple EOTD

Ever realized nothing seems to rhyme with purple?

It's been a while since I did any EOTDs and since my quest is to use the colours I won't usually use, I decided the EOTD for the night would be in Purple.

I had bad encounters with Purple since the make up artist seems to have the magical touch of making my skin look sallow and my eyes bruised. It took me a while to realize that it was because they used the wrong type of purple for my skin tone. They happily slapped on pinkish-purplish colour which just didn't suit me and that made me avoid purple like a plague.

Have not been getting enough sleep lately since last week. Either I'm studying for a test or preparing for a conference or something or another. Another round of breakout and then thanks to the super hot weather which happens every single year as we come closer to the Chinese New Year. It's so hot you can feel the heat seeping into your skin and frying you. Not to mention, the skin on my forehead and mouth area has started to peel. The moisturizers are not working despite it all.

The weather has gone koo-koo and it's driving me koo-koo. No wonder there's so many mad people on the loose. Their brains got fried! I'm still fine thankfully :P

See my tired eyes? Just came back from a conference held at the newly build Eastin Hotel
Thank God the food was gooooooooood

Prep, prime and draw and smooth out some white shimmer stick all over eyelids, then apply some Etude House Shine Up Stick in Blue Beam, including under your eyes. This is to work as a base.

I only have ONE pathetic purple colour eyeshadow which was bought a gazillion years ago. One of the three cosmetic items I ever bought from Skin Food. Not that I hold anything against them but the eyeshadow can be a little chalky. Yay for the 88 palatte, without it, I'm gonna start sweating cause I really don't remember what I used the last time I did a purple look for Naomi's contest.

Apply some darker shade at the very corner, I used MAC Typographic since it's not black black but more dark gray to black gray. Line everything with a black eyeliner. At this point I really wished that the eye colours were less matte and more shimmery. Perhaps it's also because of my dry skin that it ended up looking a little chalky. Bah!

Apply falsies

Just for laughs. A comparison between the two eyes. Still no double eyelids. Not that I mind but putting on make up would have been so much simpler with it. Well, make do with whatever I have is one of my mottos in life so..

JH thinks the eyelashes are just TOO much. I agree, I only wear them for pictures and EOTD cause they look good on camera :P

MAC Mineral blush in Petticoat and TBS shimmer wave in Peach, as usual

Items and colours used

Now, what other hideous colours can I try next? *rubs hands gleefully while crackling*

Yellow/ Orange?

Oh btw, I scored 100% and passed my BLS! No, BLS doesn't stand for "Bull Lumpy Shit" ( I would have aced that test without studying) but Basic Life Support. Yay me! I can now somewhat-and-might-not-and-will-most-probably-run-around-like-headless-chicken-in-a-real-scenario, save people!

I admit that there are a few people I wouldn't mind leaving to choke on their own vomit before helping :P

If anyone's interested, they can learn it from hospitals and if not mistaken, the course cost about RM400 and will present you with a certificate. Preferably linked to the American Heart Association as they are recognized worldwide.
