This perfect purple eyeliner was part of "Veronicas" makeup.
I loved it so much it inspired me to do a blog on coloured eyeliner!
I love coloured eyeliner, and have been wearing it for years!
It's actually just in the past 5 years that I have been wearing more neutral colours like black and brown.
The Do's of wearing coloured eyeliner...and making it work for day!
The trick to wearing coloured eyeliner and making it the focus, is to keep the rest of the face neutral.
On my face
Garnier BB Cream for combination to oily skin in Light/Medium / Garnier Skin Renew dark circle eye roller / Make Up For Ever HD Foundation in 120 / Maybelline concealer in 20
favourite powder! MAC Studio Careblend in Medium
When wearing coloured eyeliner I like to keep my cheeks neutral by using bronzer as blush and a highlighter on the top of the cheekbones. These work well together!
MAC Bronzer in Refined Gold / Extra Dimension Skinfinish in Whisper of Gilt

When using a coloured eyeliner make sure you really load on the mascara top AND bottom!

MAC lipglass in c-thru...perfect neutral
The end result!
face and lips are kept neutral so coloured eyeliner stands out!
