Pink Eyed

Photobucket

Ugh Bank Holiday with the irrational yet compulsory need to go crazy and make the most of an additional 24hrs. Fun though. This weekend I once again got out my old favourite pink eyeshadow..this favourite from MAC (posthaste) is almost red and is really striking on the eye. There is something about the colour that is a little freaky and uneasy; a college once told me my eyes looked 'infected' when I wore the shade to work and though I feigned a offense, I can see what she meant! The bright hue mimics cried out eyes, or something a little manic- this is the very reason why I wear it! It adds a little 'edge' to your look.

There are (hopefully) no pictures of last nights house party pink look, but I have scoured my archieves and found this old picture. Here I blended with brown, it looks extra weird when applied around the inner corner of the eye and a little along the lower lash line...

The other night Bianca borrowed the same colour and went for a full lid of pink with some strong black eyeliner for an 80s ish look.

my mum always tells me that my eyes look infected when i wear certain colours of pink on them! I have realised that adding a bit of pink glitter eye liner works a treat xxxx

I have pink eye glitter and shadow but I am always too scared to apply it... seeing how great you look in that photo I may give it a try one time.

Although right now, post bank holiday weekend I AM NEVER GOING OUT AGAIN *cough* *sneeze*

I love the pink. I have a bright pink that I got loads of hassle about when I wore it because it looked like I'd been crying for hours, but I like that! I've also used blush for eyeshadow - it rules.

About my red hair - I dye it about once a month, but I just use box dyes. Although, if you wanted to keep getting it done professionally, you could get it dyed at a training centre? I'm going to Toni and Guy next week for some orange, oh yeah! x
