Purple is the star for this fun holiday look. Use it as an accent and pair it with soft blush and lips for a fresh party look.
EYES:
Use a soft plum shadow from your lashline to your crease, paired with a nude shadow under the brow bone.
Line your top lash line with black eye pencil.
Smudge a bright blue-purple shadow on your lower lashline.
For more drama, line the inside of your lower lash line with a black eye pencil.
Keep the brows understated.
Mega lashes make this look party perfect. False lashes with lots of mascara is the final touch.
