Welcome to the first installment of our Show and Tell Eyeshadow Series! Please show us your purple eyeshadows in this color range. You can use other colors in your eye makeup but a color in this purple range should have a strong presence. Note that this purple series is a darker, blue-purple. There will be another that is for the violet tones in the purple range later. Please post one image per eyeshadow color; you can post again if you have another eyeshadow in the same tonal range. Have a photo of your eye and please describe the products/brands used to create your look! NOTE: Makeupaddicts is limited on image hosting, if you are able to host your images and link to the photo so the image shows up, that would be ideal. Otherwise, please try to make your file sizes 150kb or less, maybe about 600 pixels on the longest side. There should be plenty of detail visible at that size. Keep in mind when posting that these forum pages are publicly visible.

This is the only purple I own, lol. (I bought it for the eye contest and haven't worn it since) It's pretty but I'm not terribly comfortable in purple shadows. It is Maybelline Color Tattoo in painted purple.

here is my purple look. I love purple and after trying this realized I could incorporate some blue and it not look crazy!
I used the Marc Jacobs Tease palette most: 1st color in the inner eye, last color, the outer eye, 4th color as the transition. In the KVD Ladybird palette, I used Unrequited in crease and V.

Apparently purple eyeshadow has now become a thing with me The other colors I used got too muddied but nevertheless I love the vibrant purple and might post another look at some point. I used the UD Dangerous Palette, Jesse's Girl liquid eyeliner and BADgal Lash Mascara I think. Also used the NYX White eyeshadow base

This was my first attempt playing with The Return of Sexy palette from Too Faced. I'm very much a bronze/neutral gal, but I actually had a lot of fun with the purples! I used Pink Diamond to highlight, Hopeless Romantic on the lid, Icon in the crease, and a little Primadonna on the outer eye. I realize it may not be the right shade of purple, but I'm bad at shades quite honestly (maybe that's why I always stay neutral!)
