Peach & Plum Fall Eye Look

I wanted something simple and everyday that resembled the beautiful fall leaves we will be seeing in a few weeks time. 

I haven't used my Lorac Mega Pro quite as much as I should have over the past year, so it felt like the perfect time to get it out and take it for a spin. 

1. I started out with the pale tan shade "Fawn" as my transition shade. It hardly showed up at all, but I wasn't something light and very natural since this was supposed to be an everyday look.

2. I then applied the NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in "Milk" to my lid, which I only used to brighten up the lid and make the lid shadow stand out a little better.



3. Then, I packed the shade "Apricot" all over my lid. **Try not to bring it up above the lid, though.** 
4. I then took the shade "Mulberry" and applied it to the outer "V" of my eye, just slowly and deliberately blended it out and into the inner half of my crease until it was as soft as I wanted. 

And to deepen it up a little more, I used the shade "Granite," but made sure not to lose the overall purplish tint on the eye. 

I should also point out that I went back in with the transition shade as well to smooth out the area closer to my brow bone. 

5. For the bottom lash line, I simply applied "Mulberry" along the outer half of my eye and "Apricot" to the inner half. 

And I swiped a bit of "Opal" on the inner corner to open up the eye a bit more.



6. Lastly, I lined my waterline with the discontinued UD 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in "Lucky," which is just a rich copper shade. And then applied two coats of mascara. 

And there it is.. the finished look! I hope you all enjoy this one as much as I did. I think it's something that would look great with any eye shade, is perfect for the upcoming fall season, and can be worn day or night!  If you wanted a smokier look, you could do top liner, and deepen up the outer edge and underneath the eyes more. 
As always, let me know if you have any ideas, suggestions, comments or thoughts. I love getting feedback! x
