COLORS!

I haven't done a colorful make-up look lately..My neutral looks are getting a little old and boring so i decided to take my blues and greens out to play. I was inspired by the look i saw on the MUA at MAC today..i went to have my 223 exchanged for the 219. Since it was an exchange, and 219 is $5 cheaper i think, i got another eyeshadow. i asked 'em if they have any limited ones as i only purchase the permanent ones in pan refills. The MUA took out a box full of limited edition eyeshadows from different collections..i saw fab & flashy (from the C-Shock collection), they still had 2 of the Metal-X cream shadows (the blue and pink one) i passed up on those. They had a couple of the Mineralize e/s, Family Silver *which i already have* and Earthly Riches. i was going to get the latter but, i grabbed fertile e/s instead. I'm not actually sure on which collection it came out with but it's a really nice plum color and the best part is, it's Veluxe Pearl!..yay..i love Veluxe Pearl eyeshadows!!so anyhoo, i was inspired by the look the MA had on. i asked what colors she used, they were: Electric Eel, Aquadisiac, Gorgeous Gold and Tilt, then Indigo eye pencil..and the only eyeshadow i have among those is Aquadisiac..this calls for resourcefulness, i had to make-do with what i have..so here goes:

Inspiration: she actually swatched 'em on the back of my hand
she used soft ochre as base under gorgeous gold, tilt, electric eel then aquadisiac on top of electric eel
