Purple Sands: A Make-up Tutorial

So I've recently been getting a ton of new make-up products (a haul on my YouTube channel will be up soon) and this is a look I came up with using some of those new products. This is a neutral beigy-taupe colored lids with a pop of purple under the eye. It's perfect for making brown eyes pop! :)
