Purple cherry blossom

Note: This look was inspired by MP delicate cherry blossom tutorial.(Using local products!!)

 Cherry blossom also known as "sakura" in Japanese is a beautiful and delicate flower that can also be seen in Korea and China. The cherry blossom is a very delicate flower that typically blossom in late winter to early spring. It is often a very short lived time in which it blooms and then it quickly fall from the tree and lays on the ground. In Japanese Cherry blossom represent life in that life is something of great beauty yet it is very quick and passing. 

In Chinese  cherry blossom is a flower that represent feminine power and beauty. They believe that the blossom is an example of extreme beauty. It is on the one hand very beautiful and even very delicate but yet it holds extreme power at the same time.

 When spring in Korea,  cherry blossoms are blooming. I had heard that the blossoms in the spring are one of the most beautiful things you can see in Seoul. The blossoms are elusive and sneaky, and will bloom and wither within the span of a week

Well, Cherry blossom for me is delicate and beautiful and you have to cherish it because It could disappear for a minute.

This look was inspired by a purple Cherry blossom, so simple yet sweet and delicate....


Here's the look

Naked eyes


Use a white eyeliner and apply it to the inner corners of the eyes. 
This will help the colors to look brighter, lighter and vibrant.
I used the f21 white eyeliner/shadow in pearl.




Then take a purple cream eyeshadow and apply it all over the lids. 
This will make the color more intense and make the shadow stay longer.

I used the Everbilena Advance cream eyeshadow in Alejandra.



Next, take a lavender eyeshadow and apply it all over the lids. This will help warm up the eyes. Make it appear soft, like the petals of a flower.

I used the avon simply pretty blend able eyeshadow duo in princes


Now take you favorite gold eyeshadow and dab it all over the lid.
This will add balance to the colors that we used.
Help you create that soft, delicate look.

I used the Ellana Mineral eyeshadow  in divine.




Take a deep purple eyeshadow and apply it into the outer V .
This will create depth into your eyes

I used Nichido  Eyeshadow  powder.



And slightly dust the Ellana gold eyeshadow all over the eyes.


Now, take that deep purple again and apply it to your lower and upper lash line.

Used this as an eyeliner because black eyeliner is too intense 
for the delicate look of the cherry blossom



Now take a white eyeliner and apply it to your water line to open up the eyes.


Full lashes is too intense so I cut the lashes into half 
and apply it at the corners of my eyes.
Or you can kip this part and just curl your lashes 
and add mascara.


Finish!

Your eyes should look soft and mysterious


 Sweet and sultry like a flowers







And delicate like the beautiful Cherry Blossom.


Have a fabulous day...
