 You can use any color really... Pinks, Corals, Coppers, Purples, Blues...
I chose to stick with purple colors, like deep wine colors
 
 Looks a little dark in this picture, and has a different look on paper. When you use the eyeshadow over the creme shadow, it blends very nice. the color of the shadow will pop more than the creme base.


Dont be afraid to smudge your liner a bit.. to give that smokey smolder look
 
 

 You can use any black shadow. using a stiff brush like a crease brush will do the trick. start at the lash line and slowly add black... blending upwards into the purple. don't go over the whole lid... just about a quarter of the way up. 

When adding the highlight color (my favorite to use is Nylon by MAC) make sure you blend it into where it meets the purple. that is the key to this look! making the colors look like they blend right into the next one without mixing the colors and losing the individual colors used.You can see what i mean by the pictures below. adding highlight to the inner corner of your eye makes your eyes pop! you may need to touch up


 
  by curling your lashes down.. you can create the "bedroom eyes" look. It creates a very sultry sexy look!
