Orange cat eyes or violet cat eyes?
Violet! I like how purple looks with my brown eyes.
Sunshine yellow eyeshadow or baby blue eyeshadow?
Hmm… Sunshine yellow worn as a single color on the top lid with lots and lots of lengthening mascara (and maybe a strip of false lashes, if I’m in the mood). I think that could look almost wearable?!
I do love me some baby blue eyeshadow…but only when it’s strategically placed as part of a blue smokey eye. That’s where I am in life right now, ha!
Frosty pink eyeshadow or vampy burgundy lips?
Vampy burgundy lips in a budge-proof liquid lipstick formula, so I don’t have to deal with taking it off before I put my mask on. 😉
Blue mascara or purple mascara?
Blue! It shows up more readily on my dark lashes.
Dark navy blue liquid lipstick or black liquid lipstick?
Black liquid lipstick. I think it looks edgy and cool! 😁
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

My picks!:
Orange cat eyes or violet cat eyes?:
Violet! I’m not sure if I could pull off orange.
Sunshine yellow eyeshadow or baby blue eyeshadow?:
Baby blue for sure! I’ve always been in love with blue shadows hehe. It reminds me of the original Barbie dolls.
Frosty pink eyeshadow or vampy burgundy lips?:
I agree with you on the vampy burgundy lip, it can look so striking and pretty *__*
Do you use the brush that comes with the palette, or do you ditch it?:
It depends on which brand the brush is! For example, I love the brushes that come with Urban Decay palettes. But if it’s a brush that I don’t like, I will find a different use for it.
Blue mascara or purple mascara?:
I don’t usually wear colorful mascara so I’m not sure! Maybe purple?
Dark navy blue liquid lipstick or black liquid lipstick?
I rarely wear it, but black lipstick for sure! Again, so striking.

Sunshine yellow eyeshadow or baby blue eyeshadow? Yellow
Frosty pink eyeshadow or vampy burgundy lips? Pink shadow
Blue mascara or purple mascara? Either. But if I have to choose I’m gonna say blue.
Dark navy blue liquid lipstick or black liquid lipstick? Black because if I’m gonna go there I may as well go all out. And I did it one year for Halloween so I know it works.

March 25th, 2021 at 6:07 pmOrange cat eyes or violet cat eyes? Violet. Purple’s my absolute favorite color!
Sunshine yellow eyeshadow or baby blue eyeshadow? Baby blue. I’m cool-toned, so I have to be careful with yellows.
Frosty pink eyeshadow or vampy burgundy lips? I think they’d look great together, so both!
Blue mascara or purple mascara? I love both, depending on what color eyeshadow I’m wearing.
Dark navy blue liquid lipstick or black liquid lipstick? I’d prefer burgundy, but if it’s only between these two, I guess navy would be more workable with my pale skin.

March 25th, 2021 at 8:34 pmOrange cat eyes or violet cat eyes? How about orange, can I go terra cotta orange?
Sunshine yellow eyeshadow or baby blue eyeshadow? Strategically placed blue.
Frosty pink eyeshadow or vampy burgundy lips? Strategically placed pink. Well, I take it back, I’ll go vampy!
Blue mascara or purple mascara? Purple sounds fun.
Dark navy blue liquid lipstick or black liquid lipstick? Navy blue would be straight wild!

Orange – brings out the blue in my eyes. I usually go for copper though.

Yellow, I still have a blue eyeshadow trauma from back in the 80s

Burgundy lips, I dont do pink eyeshadow.
Blue mascara or purple mascara?
Purple.
Dark navy blue liquid lipstick or black liquid lipstick?

March 26th, 2021 at 12:04 pmYou know you’re killing me with these. I get itchy just thinking about actual COLOR on my face. 😉
Orange cat eyes or violet cat eyes? Orange; I think it’s good with my green eyes.
Sunshine yellow eyeshadow or baby blue eyeshadow? Oh, baby blue. I feel like yellow would make me look like I was jaundiced.
Frosty pink eyeshadow or vampy burgundy lips? I’m going with the eyeshadow. It’s tough, but I might actually be able to tone it down with lots of mascara. There’s no disguising the lipstick – it’s is just out there. HAHA!
Blue mascara or purple mascara? Purple. My lashes are light so it would show up.
Dark navy blue liquid lipstick or black liquid lipstick? Black. I would be the most self-conscious person on the planet, but I guess I’d go all in. 🙂

Violet! I’ve done it before and I’m really into purple right now.
Sunshine yellow eyeshadow or baby blue eyeshadow?
Sunshine yellow! I would look terrible in baby blue and sunshine yellow is one of my favorite colors.
Frosty pink eyeshadow or vampy burgundy lips?
Definitely burgundy lips.
Blue mascara or purple mascara?
Purple! I used to own plum glasses and I liked to wear plum liner and mascara with them. Maybe pair it with the purple cat eye from the first question?
Dark navy blue liquid lipstick or black liquid lipstick?
Black! I own a glittery black I wore for a show a while back.

March 28th, 2021 at 1:52 pmOrange cat eyes or violet cat eyes? Violet. I like the color better, plus it makes my eyes look green.
Sunshine yellow eyeshadow or baby blue eyeshadow? Sunshine yellow. Baby blue doesn’t look good on my eyes at all.
Frosty pink eyeshadow or vampy burgundy lips? Vampy burgundy lips.
Blue mascara or purple mascara? Purple or navy go better with my eye color than pure blue.
Dark navy blue liquid lipstick or black liquid lipstick? Black goes with everything.
