Do you like Fuchsia lipstick and eyeshadow, and would prefer to wear both at the same time yet you don't know how? Here's a simple, foolproof, always perfect eye makeup look that I love wearing with Fuchsia or Hot Pink lipsticks.
EYES:
Nars Shadow Primer
Top, L-R: Prime; Apply a matte bone/cream shade
Bottom, L-R: Trace above crease using matte Gray eyeshadow and blend the edges; line the upper and lower lash line
Fuchsia is a strong color and wearing one means you want to highlight your lips. I suppose you already know this rule of thumb in makeup: colorful lips=neutral eyes or vice versa.
Aside from Brown, I use Gray eyeshadow with Fuchsia lipstick. I don't use Black because even if it's a neutral color, it's strong like Fuchsia and both clash on the face.
You can also use a pastel pink shadow used as a lid wash with Fuchsia lipstick for a springtime look. ;)
FACE:
Soap And Glory Kick Ass Concealer Medium
Hope you learned something new today. What would you pair with Fuchsia/Hot Pink lipsticks? :)

I don't have much fuchsia lipsticks with me but I have a magenta lipstick that I never would have thought I would wear, let alone own! Whenever I wear that lipstick, I only pair it with some filled-in eyebrows and some mascara because I feel it's bold enough and I want the focal point of my look to be my bright lips. Great look, by the way! Thanks for this post. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the EOTD:) so simple looking but so gorgeous! recently bought my very first eyeshadow palette. Kaya nakikitambay ako dito sa blog mo the whole day and learning from your past EOTD/FOTD post. I tried the marsala eotd now,feeling ko I'm so pretty for the party later:D tysm!!!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome! Glad I was able to help you out. :)
DeleteIt's so pretty! I like wearing bold lips but not bold eyes since I haven't perfected my eyeshadow blending skills yet :P
ReplyDeleteThanks, dear! :D Just check out my eyeshadow tutorials for reference. :)
DeleteIt's so cute! Fresh looking :) Maybe if I have a shade of lipstick like that I would pair it with a natural brown eye look.
ReplyDeleteThat's a good alternative too, especially for daytime. :)
DeleteI don't have the confidence that I could pull off Fuschia lipstick. I only wear reds in wine shades, deep berries and pinkish mauves but not fuschia pink. I'm a morena like you Ms. Martha and I envy how you nail those "scary" shades. Effortlessly gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThanks! :)
DeleteThis is so pretty Ms Martha. Please do a cheaper version of this. I hope you can do makeup videos and vlogs. PLEASE
ReplyDeleteHi Faye,
DeleteOh, how I wish I have the time. :( My time's devoted to my business nowadays. But I will try! :)
These are affordable products I will recommend: ArtDeco Eyeshadow Base, Revlon Gel Liner, Revlon Eyeshadows,
DeleteI am sporting fuchsia lipsticks recently because I love how the color looks so vibrant and happy. :) I usually pair it with a light brown, gray eyeshadow. Sometimes, just plain eyeliner. :)
ReplyDeletethose are nice tricks to make Fuchsia Lipstick young and fresh! ;)
DeleteI wish I could do my eyeliner as good as yours! I'd pair a fuchsia lipstick with a neutral eyeshadow, skip the blush and just add a little warmth on my face with a bronzer for a subtle glow. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks dear. Thanks for sharing your fuchsia lipstick technique, too. :)
DeleteGorgeous! I do have two fuchsia lipsticks and when I wear them, I always get compliments, even those weird stares. lol. I just have not tried wearing it with a complete eye makeup so this one's a great help. Now I can pull-off a complete look! Thanks a bunch :)
ReplyDeleteThis is just informative! Haha. I know it's basic eye shadowing but for "manangs" like me, it really helps that we have a beauty site we can always run to. In fact, I captured a screenshot of the steps for future reference. You see, I love eye shadows esp the earth-tones, but I just don't know how to apply them properly. There are just one toooooo many video tutorials in YouTube and with my full-time work and gradschool stuff, I just don't have the luxury of time to watch countless video tutorials :( It's great that we have the same skin color so what looks good on your skin might be applicable to mine as well :) Again, thanks a lot for the make-up tips and tricks! Will frequent this site na! ~Starr
ReplyDeleteThanks, Starr. Just check out my other tutorials. Links at the footer of the blog. :)

ReplyDeleteyou had that sexy eyes ms m! and I LOVE how you make your brows!!! (okay going back to the bookmark: Brows 101) <-- Thank you for this tutorial too ms m!
Konting konti na lang i can achieve the look (even not using the same brand ms m. (i know you're really busy ms m,.. pero more of this tutorials pa please!!!)
Just check out my eyeliner tutorial. ;)
DeleteWill do more tutorials like this! :)
love your lipstick and winged liner!
ReplyDeleteI always pair a bright lip with simple eye makeup, sometimes just eyeliner as I want all attention on my lipstick... plus I don't want to look kontrabida on a daily basis.
Thanks dear! ;)
DeleteI don't think fuchsia lipsticks would suit me but I'll bookmark this tutorial and try it with other shades. I am currently eyeing on that Snoe product you use. *curious*
ReplyDeleteIt's just a matter of finding the right shade for you. ;)
DeleteLet me know what you think of this post! :)
