Is it just me, or has purple been the it color for like...years?
Not that I have any problems with purple. In fact, I'm a pretty big fan. I have tons of clothes and accessories in every shade from lilac to plum to violet and I use them regularly.
But purple makeup is a stumper for me. I always oooh and ahhh over it at makeup counters. I'm constantly told that purple shades will make my hazel eyes appear more green, which is something I love since it's sometimes hard to convince people I even have hazel eyes because they're kind of dark. I also have a drawer full of various shades of purple that I absolutely love...in theory.
I'll use a dusting here or a sweep there and that's about as far as I ever go. I even have purple blush that does quite a brilliant job making me look bright and glowy (thank you Bobbi Brown Violet Face Palette!) but I even find myself shying away from that and have no idea why.
Well, color me totally shocked when I saw this on the Sephora website and immediately wanted to drool:

Oh. Em. Gee. Make my eyes look like THAT!! Pretty please?? (a little lighter on the eyeliner, especially under the eye, and I think this could even be considered appropriate for daytime)
