Purple Hues.

Hello Beauties! I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas Holiday & got everything they wanted from Santa! While going through the beauty products I've hauled lately (who doesn't love Christmas $$) and I noticed a lot of the things I got were various shades of purple. I love purple year around but lately I've been into cooler tones, I'm guessing it's because of the cooler weather. Here are the things I got, enjoy!


Blushes


MAC Blush Ombre - Vibrant Grape
MAC Blush Ombre - Azalea Blossom
These two blush ombres were released on the 26th with the Daphne Guinness Collection. I know these are limited edition that only come around every so often. They both are really pretty and if you want them get them while they are still available for purchase!
MAC Blush - Breath of Plum


Eyes
  
Maybelline Tattoo Shadow - Painted Purple
MAC Pigment - Circa Plum
This pigment was also released with the Daphne Guinness collection and it was on my wish list, but luckily I found it at a CCO in the old pigment jar for only $13!
MAC Eyeshadow - Sketch
MAC Eyeshadow - Satin Taupe 
I know you're probably thinking that this post is supposed to be about purple hues so why is she showing a taupe eyeshadow?! Well this lovely eyeshadow has a really nice purple undertone.

Lips
Essence Stay with me Long lasting Lip Gloss - Berry Me!
Essence Stay with me Long lasting Lip Gloss - I Like Cotton Candy
MAC Cremesheen Glass - Narcissist 
MAC Kissable Lip Colour - Flaunting It
I also found this at the CCO. I forgot what collection this came out with.

Nail Polish
ULTA Nail Lacquer - Celebutante
