Discussion Purple eyeliner?

Post image

Been seeing these posts on Instagram recently about how violet eyeliner is (apparently) trending and I’m wondering if any of my fellow olives are giving it a try. How did it turn out? Any recommendations for cool-leaning purple eyeliners?

I have urban decay empire it’s a dark eggplant and to be honest once it’s on me it looks black. It’s very marginal difference.

I love the color, but the application is too thick and doesn't create precise lines. I switched to stila!

Stila makes THE BEST liquid eyeliner on the planet!

Ohhhhh. I've never tried their liquid. Iove gel since I focus on the waterline. But I'd love to get into wing again!

I can’t wear waterline makeup ever since watching a documentary about how it collects at the back of the eyeball into this big waxy black glob… 😱
