Working with Red Eye Shadow ❤ A Valentine's Inspired Look

One of my first high-end eye shadows ever was MAC's Cranberry. I've long since lost it, but I remember always looking at it and wondering how I could use it (since it was actually given to me, I didn't pick it out.)

Red eye shadow is intimidating, and understandably so - red eyes aren't normally positive indicators, and red around your eyes isn't either. But red eye shadows do exist, so obviously, there's ways to wear them.

So, I took the opportunity to use red in a Valentine's-inspired look, pairing it with a red lip as well.

I'm happy with how it turned out, though I do want to invest in a new blending brush at some point, since one of mine has started to irritate my eyes in recent weeks. But I digress.
