Get the Look: Violet Banana Eyes at Peter Som S/S 2012

Posted by Mandy | Wednesday September 14, 2011 1 comment


Tom Pecheux created this stunning look for Peter Som’s S/S 2012 show and we just can’t get enough of it! The look is termed "banana eyes" (a sweep of shadow in the socket with a banana shape) with a violet and dark purple palette. 



To get the look

(1) Apply a wash of light violet on the lids and a wide line of darker purple in a banana shape above the eye socket and on the lower lash line.

(2) Smudge a dark purple eyeliner on the lower lashline, and a generous coat of lengthening mascara on top and bottom lashes.

(3) Smear a light coat of nude lipstick to compliment such strong eyes.

(4) To complete this look, fill in your brows and apply a peachy pink blush right above the cheekbones.
