<p>After hearing your feedback on <a href="https://www.temptalia.com/looks-urban-decay-book-of-shadows-purple-eye">this recent look</a>, I thought about what other color combinations have I tried thinking they wouldn&#8217;t work&#8230;</p>
<ul>
<li><strong><a href="https://www.temptalia.com/tutorial-black-smokey-eye">The Black Smoky Eye</a></strong> | Completely and utterly black-based through and through.  I never thought this much black would come out looking anything but awful.</li>
<li><strong><a href="https://www.temptalia.com/mac-cosmetics-multi-color-015-2">Festive &#8220;Christmas&#8221; Eye</a></strong> | Red and green don&#8217;t blend well, and could you really wear Christmas colors?  At least around the holidays&#8230; it worked!</li>
<li><strong><a href="https://www.temptalia.com/mac-cosmetics-teal-027">Non-Bright Teal</a> </strong>| I was inspired by the brown and teal hearts on my shirt, and I wondered if it would translate in a look.  I didn&#8217;t have much faith, but I liked the result!</li>
<li><strong><a href="https://www.temptalia.com/looks-subtle-tropical-eye-with-lavender-spring-green-and-teal">Too Multi-Colored</a></strong> | I use a lot of colors in my looks, but they&#8217;re often in the same color family, just different shades&#8211;what if I used a ton of colors from different families?</li>
<li><strong><a href="https://www.temptalia.com/looks-green-purple-and-pink-really-who-knew">Barbie Loves MAC</a> </strong>| As soon as I saw the promo for it, I loved it!  But I mean, would it really work?  The model was pale and porcelain (I am far from it), but could you get the colors to blend together similarly?  (Shh, I like mine better!)</li>
