A look i created when i got my “sensuous” shadow from makeup geek :-)

I started by adding Sensuous shadow on the lid. Then proceeded with the Purple Rain in the crease, then Corrupt over that. I continued with the Corrupt and Purple Rain until I achieved the desired result. I put the shadows in the same order under the eye. Almost all the way to the corner of the eye. In the corner of my eye, I used a mixture of Shimma Shimma and Glamorous. The Shimma Shimma just in the corner of your eye and Glamorous on top of it and out to the rest of the shadows and then blend them well together. Blend also Glamorous almoste all the way up to the brow while blending it toward the center of the lid(The Sensuous shadow disappear a little when you blending Glamorous shadow into the lid, but it’s just to fill up a little and make sure that the colors are blended well).
I used then the Vanilla Bean shadow as a highlight under the brow.

Hope you like it! :)

      I can’t compare because I do not have any MAC shadows that looks like the MUG shadows. But what I found on the MUG store at every shadowBased on reviews and pictures from the store it is:

      Vanilla Bean – MAC Brule
      Shimma shimma – Shroom
      Sensous – Star violet
      Purple Rain – Indian ink

      Hope it help! :)

    I absolutely love this look Silje Beate! Sensuous is one of my all time favorite colors now. Such a beautiful color. I am going to try to do this look, but I am not the best at makeup, so we shall see if I can do it by just reading step-by-step directions. Wish me luck! and thank you for sharing such a beautiful look:o)

    What kind of brushes were you using? I notice I often have issues when blending where the whole eye starts to look the same color instead of a variance. I have all these colors except Glamorous and Mocha so I really want to try it! Thanks for the pics…you should really consider tutorials;)

      I don’t remember which brushes i used, but i have a bunch of them so i use a lot of diffrent brushes, but the most important part of blending is to not blend too much before you have all the colors and use a good primer.
      One tip is to tap down back and forth between the colors.

    I really love this look, and am looking forward to trying it once I’ve completed and received my first MUG order. I particularly like that it should work well with hooded eyelids, since you have used a light color on the lid. Just gorgeous, thanks so much for sharing!
