Thanks to purple's "color of the year" status, there are tons of gorgeous purple makeup shades on the market. A sheer wash of lilac shadow on the eyelids is a youthful, super-feminine way to wear the trend -- plus, purple flatters just about any skin tone.

Apply a medium-coverage foundation all over your face. Fill in brows with pencil or brow powder using light, hairlike strokes. Prime your upper eyelids with shadow primer, and use point-tip cotton swab to prime 1/4-inch of your under-eye area.
Tightline your upper lash line by smoothing a shimmery plum gel liner on the upper waterline, drawing as close to the lashes as possible. Using a liner brush, pull your eyelid taut and press a plum shadow at the roots of the upper lash line as well as the outer third of the lower lash line.
