I can for sure say that this is one of my favorite City Minis I own to this day. These mix of purple and blush shades are so right up my makeup alley, it's just fate that I found this pallet. :)
True to the City Mini pallets form, these shades perform just like all of the others, as in they are buttery soft and so easy to work with (except the Girls Night Glimmer, that one had terrible shadow quality).
But first some swatches to show you how beautiful this pallet is.
Ok, are you ready for the tutorial? Let's dive in.....the first thing I did was use color F all in my crease with a fluffy blending brush. Then I went in with color C and packed it heavily all on the outer half of my eye lid and the outer corner. I did slightly blend it in towards the crease.
Look at how beautiful that purple C color is in the outer V....oh I am in tears, it so pretty....ok enough, let's get a move on.
Next I went in with color A and packed it all over the first half of my lid and ran it up against the C purple color on the outer half of the lid. I lined my water line with a charcoal gray pencil liner and took color F and used it to smudge the liner out on my lower lash line.
I used the color D to highlight my browbone with....this is a perfect color match for my skin tone. It's not the exact color as my skin, it's a bit lighter so it gives it the perfect brightness.
Then I realized that I wanted to deepen the lower lash line, so I went in with color C and ran it along my lower lash line.
Black liquid liner on the top lash line, mascara, blush (I used Maybelline Bouncy Blush in Plum Wine) and lipstick, well lipgloss (Loreal Infallible 8H gloss in Posy) and that was all I did to create my look.
I think the look turned out beautifully and I am really happy with the end results. I will be doing another tutorial tomorrow with this same pallet so I do hope you will come back and visit me again here at 523.
I will talk to you all again very soon. Until next time, take care.
