The Fall magazines have been pushing intense multi-color eyes. When I was younger, I used to play with my eye shadows a lot more than I do now. The raver days were especially nuts and I still hold a special place in my heart for red shadow. It took forever for me to find this Anna Sui shade.

I have so many colorful eye shadows I never use but I just can’t get rid of it. Who knows when a Halloween costume will call for orange shadow!?
Keiko Lynn just did a colorful eye tutorial you should check out.
It takes way too much time to scan images so, I just photographed the actual magazine pages. You get the gist. Will you be trying any of these looks for a special occasion?
Out of all of these, ^this^ is more of what I do on a semi-regular basis. Just a plain old black smokey eye, with some plum added in, and not so much on the bottom lash line.
Forever devoted to liquid liner, I finally got some gel eyeliner you apply with a brush and I love it. I had a killer coupon for L’Oreal products so I tried the HIP stuff in Eggplant. It doesn’t budge. The brush provided is really stiff though. Just adding a tiny bit of color around your lash line is an easy way to switch things up and it’s a sneaky way to blend in liquid liner mishaps.

I used to wear red eyeliner. Wore it to a doctors appointment. Doctor thought I had a rash on my eyelids. Stopped wearing it soon after.
ahahah! that is hilarious. I love the modern day geisha style where you fade it out to your cheek bones… that’s a crazy look though!
In high school, I wore silver and purple striped eyeshadow and 10 coats of mascara!
How on earth did you do stripes? Oh yeah, 10 coats of mascara is requisite!
If you can stand to set foot in there, Hot Topic has really, really bright eyeshadows. I think the three existing ravers still buy them there!
Oh man, I haven’t been in a Hot Topic in forever! Are there ravers in Richmond anymore? I know there are still Drum & Bass nights (my favorite) but I haven’t been in forever.
