Purple and Grey Arabic Inspired Eye Make Up Tutorial




I happen to just love the Arabic style of make-up! Bold colors, strong liner, bright lip..just lots of make up. Admittedly, my tutorial  does not do justice to the look, but in all fairness, I was trying my new camera and still do not have the lighting perfect yet. I think one of the reasons I like this look is because there is so much make-up, the colors are so rich and vivid and even though the eyes have so much going on, the lip is still very bold. And I don't know about y'all, but I am SO over the nude lip trend!! Bring back the bright, bold, and daring lips!

Here is a list of the products I used:

*Foundation
  e.l.f. Flawless finish foundation in buff mixed with e.l.f. tinted moisturizer in nude

*Powder
  Rimmel Stay Matte pressed powder in 001 transparent
