How To: Matte Purple Eyes with Wet & Wild Lust Palette

You don't need lots of brushes to create a look. In this look, I only used 2 brushes for the eye makeup. If I wanted to I could have gotten away with just 1. The key is to apply a little at a time. Keep the colours light and soft to minimize any mess, so that there is no need to clean up that much. Of course, it also helps a lot by using good eyeshadow. 

I also did not use the lid + crease + outer V technique. It's more of just a gradient of colours from light to dark. Nothing wrong with either techniques, I just think sometimes with my eyes, I would rather not do any 'crease work' when I don't have much (crease) to begin with. Sometimes I think it makes the eye makeup too dramatic looking to my preference especially when purple can be quite a strong colour.

I hope the video helps.
