Bright Blue and Maroon look using Morgana Minerals Pirate Collection

I normally wouldn't put bright blue with maroon, but since Marooned has blue sparkles in it, I thought it might be something worth trying with Walk the Plank. It turned out a bit darker and smokier than I had in mind but I think it turned out well anyway. I balanced the darkness of the eyes out by using a bright red lipgloss. I hope you like it. :-)

  1. Beautiful! I wish those UD liners would last on my waterline. They have such nice colors, and pencils are so convenient.

  2. What a cool combo! It reminds me of aromaleighs coco mauve but with blue instead of green

  3. That looks really awesome! I bet that a nude or gold shimmer lip would work really well with it, too.

  4. Bebo,
    They don't?! They last fairly well on mine. I just recently started using them and I love 'em!

    AxSDenied,
    I have that colour! I need to use it...I'm so behind on colours to try.

    Emily,
    Oooh! I should have gone with what you suggested...a more simple lippy would have been better, I think. Thank you!

  6. I like this unusual color combo... every time I see your liner I'm like ugg I bet it's Urban Decay which I really want... yep. :P I think I got both these colors when I ordered a little while ago, I'm excited now!

    The mascara is Eyeko, do you have anything else of theirs? I'd like to try them, but not unless I see a good review! ;]
