Here’s a blue and purple look using the Menagerie Cosmetics Violet Ink Palette.
I’m not sure what happened with the splotch on the inner part of my lid/crease. I didn’t use my usual primer so maybe that had something to do with it. The shimmers seem nice but I need to play with them some more to get a better feel for them. The mattes had a lot of kickup in the pans and I had a ton of fallout from them but at least I remembered to do my under eye concealer last. There was a bit of patchiness with the more blue-toned mattes (Jellyfish and Octopi). I’ll need to use them some more in different ways to see if it continues to happen.
The blue pigments in some of these shades are incredibly potent. After doing this, look my fingers and my eyelid were stained. Just so you know. The staining on my skin faded after about a day. I would be careful to avoid using white brushes and try not to get these shades on your clothes, furniture, etc.
