Look - Dame Edna Wisteria Trio Eye

Quick Dame Edna look for y’all today! 🙂 Wisteria is a really, really pretty blue — but I probably wouldn’t use it to justify buying the entire palette, since the other two shadows are easily duped and their textures aren’t even great (feel like lustres to me, yuck!). Fineshine, especially, gets all over the place.

You will need the following…

  • Eyes: Mutiny pigment (teal-blue), Fineshine eyeshadow (silver), Wisteria eyeshadow (light blue-aqua), Divine Night eyeshadow (dark gray-silver), Femme-fi eyeshadow (highlighter), Urban Decay Ye-yo 24/7 Liner (white), Presriptives Grotto Eye Liner (green-blue), Plushlash mascara (black)
  • Cheeks: Spectacle! beauty powder (powdery pink), Dior Rose Diamond Skin Shimmer (shimmery pink)
  • Lips: B-Babe lipstick (frosty pink), Red devil lipglass (coral with red tones)
  • Brushes: 266 (firm, angled brush), 249 (flat, firm brush), 239 (fluffy shadow brush), 129 (dense blush brush)
  • Substitutes: Mutiny = Delft; Fineshine = Electra; Wisteria = Clear Sky Blue; Divine Night = Knight Divine; B-Babe = Bombshell; Red Devil = Lychee Luxe

Directions: Define brows using a coordinating powder shadow applied with the 266 brush. Apply Mutiny pigment all over the lid as the base with the 249. On the inner lid, apply Fineshine eyeshadow using the 239. Apply Wisteria eyeshadow to the middle of the lid. Darken the outer lid using Divine Night eyeshadow and drag into crease using the 239. Sweep Femme-fi eyeshadow underneath the brow bone to highlight. Finish with Urban Decay Ye-yo 24/7 Liner and Prescriptives Grotto liner on lower lash line, and Plushlash mascara on lashes. Sweep apples of cheeks with Spectacle! beauty powder using the 129, highlight with Dior Rose Diamond shimmer. Apply B-Babe lipstick to lips, and then top with Red Devil lipglass for color and shine.

Gorgeous! Now I definitely can’t wait to get the Wisteria Trio. And I can’t wait to see a look using the Royal Tour Trio. I love the lips too, such a pretty shade of pink.

Oh by the way…does MAC have any frosty white eyeliners? I didn’t see any on the site, but maybe there are some limited edition ones? If not, I guess I’ll have to suck it up and buy Ye-yo.

*sigh* I wish I could pull off blues like you can! 🙂

Oh and a side note for the Lustres: You should try applying them with a bit of Mixing Medium! That prevents them from “glitter fallout” and you get an almost metallic application! 🙂

I have just ordered them both. And the beauty powders. And a lipstick and lipglass. 😮 This is all your fault, Christine, I didn’t know much about MAC before I started reading your blog! 🙂

Am I the only one that noticed that you have the new lipstick and lipglass from BBR already??? How did you get B-Babe and Red Devil so soon? I’m jealous cause they are gorge!

I got something very similar to Wisteria layering Electric Eel on top of Gesso. Veeeeery chalky, but I think I might stick to this combination and skip Wisteria, as I probably wouldn’t use such a bold colour too often anyway 😉

OMG what a stunning look, Christine! Lucky me to have Mutiny pigment. I’ve been lemming Clear Sky Blue pigment for a long time and you’ve just confirmed – Wisteria is very similar in color! Many complained about texture of CSB but if this is the only way to make this gorgeous, vivid turquoise blue at this point, I’m ready to put an extra effort into blending. Does MUFE have a vibrant blue color similar to Wisteria? I expect Hello Kitty blue to be very close to Wisteria (maybe a bit more teal?) but I wouldn’t be willing to buy the entire quad just for one blue e/s.

Thanks, Sunshine! Mutiny is gorg, I’m so glad you have it 🙂

There is actually also a Sky Blue eyeshadow at PRO, I do believe (unless they discontinued it). I’m not very familiar with MUFE unfortunately, so I have no idea if they do — but it wouldn’t surprise me. 😉

Okay, I am going through your looks, just to see the difference between Dior shimmer blushes 😀 You look so CUTE in this FOTD! A bit different from current FOTDs as well.
