Make up from Fashion Week

When I saw these photos from backstage at Prabal Gurung's show during Fashion Week, I wanted to try the look on myself just for fun.  I had most of the products that they used, or at least something close to it.  It looked like there was some green on either side of the blue, even though that wasn't listed on their products used, so I first put an aqua color on my eye lids as a base.

 Here are the products I used:

Urban Decay Primer Potion
MAC aquadesiac
MAC Electric Eel
MAC brown/blue pigment
L'Oreal voluminous false fiber mascara
Urban Decay 24/7 liner in Electric
MAC Angel lipstick

The next step was to start adding the bright blue.  I started in the center of my eye and followed it up to the edge of my eye, which was a little different from MAC's design.  (They went more toward the middle of the brow.)

Then I put the blue in the inner corner of my eye like they did.

They listed that they used their brown/blue pigment, but I couldn't see where.  I put it on either side of the blue, which came out much darker than I expected.

Blending the blue and brown

Since my look now differed substantially from the MAC look, I decided to add a few more of my own touches.  I used Urban Decay's 24/7 pencil in Electric to line the lower eye.

Just to add a little more definition I used a black liner on top of the blue on my lower eye.

Here's how it looked with my eye closed before I added any mascara:

My last step was to add mascara to my top and bottom lashes

Here is the finished eye

I finished the look with a nude lipstick like the one MAC used in their look.

It's definitely not your every day look, but if you want to make an impact for a special event, this will certainly do it!  Do any of you wear make-up this bold for any events?
