On Tuesday I went out to dinner for my friend's birthday, and I wanted to be all fancy and shit. I could've done a bright eye since the air conditioning in the restaurant would've stopped any eyeshadow melting moments, but I've been absolutely in love with purple lips this week. <3 I also had a pair of falsies lying round from my December BellaBox that I couldn't be arsed to use on either Christmas or New Years Eve, so I figured they'd be great to amp up a boring neutral eye. Illamasqua Depravity is looking much lighter and pinker in these photos than it did in real life, though the combination of lipstain, lipliner and lipgloss did have it looking more pink-toned than it usually does.
I really loved how the makeup turned out, so prepare yourself for 8000 gigantic photos of me camera whoring! (Hey, you guys said you liked the larger photos >:P)

When I applied the Narcissus gloss it kind of removed a little bit of Depravity in the centre of my lips, which left me with a little of the pink lipstain underneath. It was like an unintentional ombre effect, and I quite liked it! The title of this post was inspired by the unintentional ombre effect on my lips, as well as my use of the 2 Blush Ombres from MAC. ^__~
