looks like purple is sizzling hot this season! but it hasn’t been one of my favorite colors since i was a kid. =(
Love it – I’ve been wearing lavender eye shadow forever, with a sweep of deeper purple in the crease, because I have green eyes and it really makes them pop.
I’m loving purple eyeshadow! It’s a welcome break from dull neutrals. And I think it is really flattering and gives a nice surpise!
