Purple taupe smokey eyes! Whenever I hear "smokey" I either think of meat like BBQ or grilled meats or make up looks! I mean, I literally can't help thinking of eyeshadow looks! I tend to always go for a brown smokey eye but recently have been practicing my black smokey eye which has been going really well. However I wouldn't do such a dark look often for daily wear and even for special occasions I prefer something with more complexity like what I did in this post!
I used the shades from my favorite Urban Decay Smoked palette and created this purple toned taupe smokey eye look! Not your typical brown, gray or black smokey look but just as gorgeous and super wearable for any occasion! Check out my review of the Urban Decay Smoked Palette here!

 |
| My completed look! Smokey but wearable and super gorgeous! |
 |
| Love that shimmer on the lids! Nothing better than super sparkly eyeshadows! |

 |
| When out that evening, I walked past the Japanese make up section at Watsons and saw that my favorite brand of eyeliner/mascara was having a 15% off their new eyeshadow palettes! |
 |
| We shared a red beef curry! It was sweeter than we'd both like but still was delicious! If only it had more bits of vegetables! |
 |
| Fried rice noodles! This dish was only okay as the vegetables were obviously just boiled and then tossed in, instead of being fried together! |
 |
| A seafood tom yum! Spicy, tasty and filled with bits of squid, fish and prawns! |
 |
| The most juicy, crispy and tasty pandan chicken ever! Love theirs the best! Two pieces is never enough and we did end up ordering two more! |
 |
| My look for the night! Something sparkly, smokey and not too heavy! Add some purple and taupes into the next smokey eye you try! |

I love the lip combination and your eye looks is gorgeous too, I haven't seen anyone talk about the UD Smoke Palette x Oooh and those food looks delicious Sharlynn x
ReplyDeleteLove the purple and tape in the smokey eye, that looks great!
ReplyDeleteI swear every colored blush looks good on you. I always shy away from the idea of a smokey eye coz its so intense. My mum gt me to pick up the new naked smokey palette for her in the states and I have to admit it looks reallllly pretty. Maybe one day I'll work up the courage to do a smokey eye.
