THURSDAY: PURPLE SMOKE- Ladies Grab Your Makeup Brushes!



MOVE OVER BLACK
There's a NEW COLOR in TOWN - PURPLE


There's no denying it: Arresting shades of bright orchid, mauve, plum and eggplant are delivering purple power to MAKEUP TRENDS this season, presenting obsession-worthy color to eyes, lips, and nails. We definitely got  a snapshot of  "the violet aesthetic" this spring and summer, but it's become a full-forced makeup movement this fall. From delicate, ethereal lavender eyes and cheeks, lush PLUM STAINED lips and eyes at Dior, to the deep, sultry pouts with MAC cosmetics, we're powerless to purple's charm. It's definitely a BOLD, get-you-noticed look, but it's also a SUPER-FRESH take on the requisite browns and berries we see EEEVVVRRRY FREEEKIN autumn. So, if there's one fall trend on its way to luring you in, THIS IS IT!!





Love me some Christina Aguilera!.......She has a beautiful canvas for a FACE!






Eyes: Whether you go with shimmery lavender effect or a dramatic pigmented plum, try any of these tools for casting a purple gaze.
