Purple galore makeup |
Sooooo I just watched a video where the lady recommended not wearing everything purple on your face. Well, I did it and I'm probably going to do it again. Purple is one of my favourite makeup colours so earlier this week I wanted to do a monochrome look with it. I really liked the outcome and am considering doing a monochrome series with a whole host of colours but I'm not sure...would anyone actually want to see a whole look centred around yellow or green etc?
As I was using mainly cool-toned purples I thought I'd warm my face up with some fake freckles, not sure if you can tell above? There'll be a close-up below. I do naturally have some faint freckles but they never come out very dark anymore as I don't get much sun exposure ever. I'm not sure how natural these ones look but I like them, despite my husband telling me it looks like a tub of cocoa powder exploded on me.
Read on for a product run-down and more photos.

I love me some purple, am wearing it today as well, although deeper and warmer. Please let me know if you'd actually be interested in a monochrome series, though I'll probably go ahead with it anyway to challenge myself.
I'd love it if you left a comment with your favourite purple product.
