I started out with the idea of wearing orange and purple shadows, then considering the shirt I'm wearing, I really wanted to do orange and red, so I compromised with red as the bottom liner. Maybe tomorrow I will do orange and red. It's still the season for those colors on trees! Normally, in my wildest dreams, I wouldn't have ever tried an orange on my eyes, but Aromaleigh colors are just fab, so I knew they would be spectacular, if I'd just get up the nerve. I figured I'd choose my lashes later. I'd pick the red tinsel ones, but one lash has mysteriously gone to sock heaven. Hopefully it will turn up!
Eyes, after my usual base
Inner Lids: AL spread your wings les papillons
Outer lids: AL ephemeral violet les papillons
Lower drylined: AL crimson mimicry les papillons
As predicted, this is very pretty:
Spread your Wings: The gentle earthy orange of the Monarch Butterfly, but rich with metallic splendor, vivid color and sparks of pure silver.
I'd worn both of these colors before and know I love them. Crimson is beautiful as a lower liner, and gives just the needed pizazz, but I don't think you can see it very well in the pictures:
Ephemeral Violet: A cool frosted metallic purple with strong finish and sparks of copper flash.
Crimson Mimicry: Rich frosted metallic smooth true red with sparks of coral, red and gold shining in the sunlight.
Lashes: Witches Charm Sorceress -- these are the top lashes of the set and very spiky. They remind me of the crown on the statue of liberty! This is my first time wearing them, and I like them a lot. I wasn't sure if they would look like I was missing some lashes, or if they would be too wild for everyday wearing.
There also are bottom lashes, which I might wear for top lashes. On one upper lash, there is some glue overspill from manufacturing. I didn't try to remove it. Never had that happen before, so I will definitely check before I buy.
Lips: Tony&Tina Cosmic Deva (wine with wine and multi shimmers)(very smooth on) + WetnWild (deep red with bright red shimmers) (Halloween one year -- this is gritty feeling on)
I hope you are having a good day!
