As promised here is a FOTD using the Estee Lauder Surreal Violet eye shadow palette. This is on counters now.
I used the three shades swatched on the left in the image (darker purple, the pinky purple and the pale lilac as a highlight). The pale shade over the whole lid, the pinky purple up to the crease and then the darker purple on the left for a bit of definition. I do wish I had gone a bit heavier with the definition or put a bit some of the pinky purple under the eyes too – next time maybe.
What I used:
Face
Clinique Anti Blemish Foundation*
MAC Moisture Cover Concealer
YSL Touche Eclat*
Une Healthy Glow Mineral Powder (I need to do a review of this, love it and have hit pan – that rarely happens!)
Eyes
Estee Lauder Surreal Violet Palette*
Bourjois Glamour Sensitive Mascara (black)*
Benefit Bad Gal Liner (slightly smudged on top lash line)
Max Factor Lash Extension Mascara (bottom lashes only)
Cheeks
MAC Hang Loose Blush
Lips

Hey thanks for the comment on my blog π
In regards to learning photoshop, I used CS3 whilst at college and picked it up pretty quickly and now use CS4 and CS5. They’re all pretty similar really π
