Party Time: The Perfect Party Makeup feat. Too Face's "A Few of My Favorite Things" palette

Hey guys! So this is my first look using the new Too Faced "A Few of My Favorite Things" holiday 2013 palette. I wanted to start off this little series with a fun look that you could use for a party or even for a Halloween look. I really wanted to show you guys how to use the awesome sparkly blue shadow "Party Time" from the palette to get it to show up super pigmented. I also wanted to use the fuschia/purple in the crease, because it's so unexpected but it looks absolutely beautiful! I also added some glitter to this look, because honestly what is a party look with no glitter? I paired a bright purple lipstick with this look, as well, just because I loved how it tied into the eyes and it just made the look more fun and vibrant. However, this look would also be beautiful with a nude or nude-pink lipstick if purple lips just aren't your thing. If you haven't checked out my review on this palette I will link it below! Hope you guys like this look <3

How To: EYES
-Start off by applying your favorite primer all over your lids and underneath your lower lash line. Then apply a white or blue base to your lids, staying under your crease. I used a white cream shadow with a violet/blue duo chrome. 
-Then taking "Party Time" on a short, stiff shader brush pat it all over your lid right up to your crease. You really want to pat and not swipe this shade, so it packs on the color and creates less fall out. I would also recommend doing your foundation after your eyes, because there will be fall out.
-On a large fluffy brush, blend "Taffy" into your upper crease to work as your blending shade. Then highlight your brow bone with "Cream Colored Ponies".
-On a smaller blending brush take the shade "Ooh la Orchid" and blend it right into your socket, also take this color and blend it under the lower lash line as well. You want to make sure you blend the line between this color and the lid color, as well, so there is no harsh line between the two.
-Take a black gel liner and apply a very thin line right against your lashes, not winging it out. Then rim your upper and lower waterline with the gel liner, as well.
-Now, taking a teal glitter liner or regular glitter, apply it onto the inner 2/3 of the lid. You want the most product right in the inner corner and it to spread out the further out you go. You also want to apply the glitter right into the inner corner of your lower lash line.
-To highlight the tear ducts I used Sugarpill's "Lumi" loose shadow, which is a white with a teal duo chrome.
-Add lots of mascara to the top and bottom lashes to complete the look!

How To:

-Use a concealer 1-2 shades lighter than your natural skin tone and apply it under your eyes, down the bridge of your nose, center of the forehead and chin, and any where else you want to highlight. I didn't use a highlighting powder, just the concealer.
-Use a matching powder and set under your eyes and down the T-zone
-Using the "Sun Bunny" bronzer from the palette, apply it onto your cheekbones and around the temples.
-Then take the "Chocolate Soleil" bronzer just into the hollows of the cheeks to further contour the face.
-Fill in your eyebrows how you normally would and set them with a brow gel.
-Apply a bright purple lipstick to your lips.
-Set everything with a face spray to set your makeup and to create a more natural finish.
