Pink Sunset

Hello again everyone! Last night I went to an ABBA disco night (yes dreams do come true) and when the all important task of choosing what makeup look to create came, I had to channel my inner disco fantasy and get to work. 

To create this pink sunset eye NYX's Ultimate Shadow Palette Brights is your saviour. This palette is my go-to if I want to whip out a colourful eye because the mix of warm and cool tone colours gives you every possible combo to create a florescent eye look. 


Here I used a mix of the yellow and pink colours to create an even transition across the lid, mimicking a pinky sunset effect. However, to create some definition in the corner, I have to admit, I don't like this palette at all. I think the dark purple colour's formula is very bad at blending with the other colours which isn't what you want. So I've started using using a simple black eye shadow (mine is from Kiko in the colour 32 matte smoky grey) just to darken whatever colour is the main transition colour and bring the right amount of dimension. 


The rest of my makeup look is very similar to the previous 'Job Interview' post, but because I tanned for this fabulous occasion, I used for of the darker foundation to blend in with my orangey body (no in honestly, I do swear by my Rimmel London Sunshimmer Self Tan Mousse in Medium Matte - it's a saviour for my ghostly skin). 


I finally used my FAVOURITE liquid lipstick by Jeffree star in the colour Rose Matter to bring out the pink from the eyes and tie the whole look together. 


And there you have it!
 One sunset look ready for a right sing-song to 'Dancing Queen' or 'The Winner takes It All' until your lungs can't take anymore. Or maybe that's just me...
