I am always going to be a fan of using any shade of purple on the eyes. It seems to be one of those unexpected colors that compliments every eye color! Even the most recent Glamour magazine said that jewel tones such as amethyst or violet never fails when worn on award show red carpets.

It feels girly and feminine, which I’m always a fan of.
When creating this look, I really played up my eyes with about 4 shades of purple from an old Kat Von D palette that’s no longer available, but she has a new Innersteller palette, $46, with similar purple shimmer shades and mattes.
Here are also some MAC eyeshadow suggestions (all $15 each) you could use to get the same effect:
