Wicked Berries Eye Makeup Look + Picture Tutorial

Here's another tutorial for you all! This is something that has been floating around my head for a long time. I do blue and purple looks often and I do purple and red looks often. So I wanted combine them and show you how to to do it. This look reminds me of berries but also has a dark sultry look about it. Which is why I'm calling it Wicked Berries. :-)  Love this so much!

This requires lots of blending!

The main shadows used for this look are from http://www.morganacryptoria.com/
