I went to an asian themed birthday party last night for one of my closest friends. Since my costume was red and black, I needed my makeup to reflect that. I chose MAC Blackground as the base for my eye shadows and I was not let down at the results. I made a custom blend of Aromaleigh’s Velvet Dream and BlackPlanet for the majority of my eye color.

The symbol painted on my left cheek is for Harmony. My husband was kind enough to draw it on my face with the Redshadows glitter and indelible eyeliner sealant.

Eyes:
MAC Blackground – all over eye area, well blended with finger, especially on browbone
Custom Mix of Velvet Dream and BlackPlanet – all over eye lid
Aromaleigh Velvet Dream – inner corner of eye

Aromaleigh Black Out – along upper and lower lash line and lower water line
