Violet & Smokey

Makeup Erin Polson / Model Tasiana Igondjo / Photo Rubi Metz

This subtle violet smokey eye uses deep plums and sultry mauves to enhance the eyes and bring out their natural colors. By keeping skin fresh and lips neutral, this is a look that can be dressed up or down for a sexy evening or a casual day around town.

STEP 1:

After skin prep, apply the Foundation+ to the main points of the face using the applicator. Then with a flat foundation brush like the Fitglow Teddy Foundation Brush, buff the foundation into the skin starting at the center of the face and blending outwards. This ensures an even coverage and seamless blend.

STEP 2:

Next, dot the Fitglow Correct+ under eyes to brighten and conceal. Buff into the skin with a soft concealer brush such as the Fitglow Teddy Double Conceal + Correct Brush.

STEP 3:

Starting with the RMS Buriti Bronzer, use fingers to dot and blend the color under cheek bones, onto eyelids and around temples. Next, using a fluffy powder brush, apply the Pressed Eye & Cheek Color in Buff to the apples of the cheeks for a soft flush of color. Lastly, tap & blend the RMS Luminizer in Living Luminizer with fingers along the tops of the cheek bones, brow bones, down the bridge of the nose, along Cupid's Bow, and in the inner corners of the eyes to highlight the face.

STEP 4:

Begin by lining the eyes with the Vegan Eyeliner Pencil in Mulberry. Define the corners and socket by bringing the color up onto the outer half of the lids. Don’t worry about precision as we will blend and even out the color as we go. Using your fingers, gently press color into the skin to blend while keeping the texture dewy. Next, using a domed shadow brush, apply the Pressed Eye & Cheek Color in shade Violet Taupe all over the lid. Blend shades Go and Lavender into the crease and outer corners to smoke out and soften the color. Finish with a final lining of the Mulberry liner to frame the eyes.

STEP 5:

Groom the brows by combing the Protein Brow Gel along the brow hairs moving in upward and outward motions, following the natural hair pattern. This not only sets the brows to keep them in place, but also helps to frame the face by defining and evening out the brow color.

STEP 6:

Finish off the eyes by applying a couple coats of the Fitglow Good Lash Mascara. Use the brush side first to coat the lashes and the comb side to separate and add fullness. For added volume, apply your favorite pair of falsies! For this look we used the Battingon Hepburn Lashes.

STEP 7:

Last but not least, the lips! Start by using the Vegan Lip Liner in Buff to line & define the lips. Outline and fill in the lips with the pencil then use the brush end to blend and even out the color. Finish by swiping on the Fitglow Lip Colour Serum in Buff. This hydrating gloss not only adds a pop of shine for a polished look, but also helps keep lips hydrated and plump throughout the day.
