Purple Smoky Eye Tutorial

Hello friends!
So I'm heading out to Marshalls today with Megan. And I was too lazy to film. But I tried out a makeup look that I've been wanting to try for a long time.

This is a more edgy sort of look, I guess you could say. But I hope you guys like it!
Picture
I started this look off with some of my Maybelline New York Fit Me! Matte +Poreless foundation.
Picture
Next I used some e.l.f. BB cream on my eyes first, then e.l.f. Eye Primer with that. The combination makes the primer more liquidy, which I wanted to I could easily blend the vibrant colors I was going to use.
Picture
I then applied some mauve eyeshadow from my e.l.f. Neutral Eyeshadow Palette into my crease, making it wider towards the outer corner of my eyes.
Picture
Next, I applied a more vibrant purple under my eyes (from the same palette), drawing it out past the crease.
Picture
I then applied an even darker purple just to the outer art of my crease. And I blended it with the mauve.
Picture
For even more edge, I added a black to the outer corner of my eye lids. Blend it all in nicely!
Picture
After that, I used a creamy color, similar to my skin tone, and applied it to my brow bone.
Picture
Then I added an even lighter color and applied it to my lid, blending it into the black.
Picture
Next I drew on some cat eyes with my e.l.f. Precision Liquid Eyeliner.
Picture
I then applied some e.l.f. Mineral Infused Mascara to my top and bottom lashes.
Picture
And I finished off my look with some Wet n Wild Coloricon white eye liner in my waterline and in the inner corners of my eyes (as a highlight). And then you're finished!

Thank you all so much for reading. I hope you liked this look! Have any requests? Comment them down below!
