Champagne and Grapes: Gold, Purple and Plum Tutorial (88 Matte/Original Palette)

This is a versatile, colorful look that works with most skin tones and eye colors, and can be worn for both day and night. for those who are on a budget, or looking for ways to play with your 88 palettes!

The 2 shades I used from the palette are ringed below. The shades are near the bottom center of the palette, but you don’t have to use the exact colors I did since there are so many options.

You just need a soft medium matte purple and a deep plum. Aside from this, I also used a pale champagne gold (Sephora Prisma Chrome shadow in Moon Beam*). Any pale shimmery beige/gold would work fine.

Step 1: I packed the matte medium violet shade onto the center of mobile lid area (beneath the socket line), leaving just the outer and inner corners bare.

Step 2: Flip your brush around and apply the deep plum shade to your outer V and draw the color in along your socket line, smoking out the line so it’s soft and nicely blended upwards.

Step 3: For highlighting, I just dabbed the pale champagne gold into the inner corners of the lids and gently blended into the purple. Don’t blend it out too far as you want the contrast against the matte purple to stay very strong.

Step 4: Using black liquid liner (as before I’m using Lime Crime’s Quill) along the upper lash line, ending in a short flick. You can always use pencil or gel if you prefer more control and a softer finish. 

 —

Step 5: Soften out the black so it blends into the look a bit more by dipping a flat brush into the plum shade in the 88 palette and then running it over the black liner. This will take down some of the harsh black color and allow it to meld into the look.

Then apply black mascara to finish!

*I got one of the bad batches of the Prisma Chrome Moon Beams, where the color was a champagne gold instead of the opalescent pink it is supposed to be.
