It has been sooooo long since I posted a tute but this weekend I have made a few, and I thought this one was the most fun. I hope you enjoy

I used:
*Clinique Touch Tint in Nude Sparkle
*Mac D'Bohemia
*Mac Pink Opal pigment
*Mac Pro Rose
*Mac Coppering
*Mac Hepcat
*Mac Sketch
*Shu ME Purple e/l
*Diorshow
*Clinique Superfine liner for brows

Start by applying the Clinique Touch Tint all over the lid and brow area. This will act as a base to your shadows and not only will it keep them on longer, it intensifies the colour and prevents creasing.

Then apply your D'Bohemia (or any shimmery coral eyeshadow) to the inner part of your lid and extend about 3/4 of the way across. Don't worry too much about blending at this stage-we will get to that later!

This is what it should look like...

Then apply Pro Rose to the outer corner of the eye and smudge into the coral side.

The colours should merge and become one

Now we dip our brushes into the Pink Opal pigment, tap off the excess and apply to our brows. Blend the highlight down into the coral and pink to create a seamless blend.

Apply the same colour to the inner corner of the eye to creatse a little light, and top the look from being to 'shadowy'

Next we apply Coppering to the crease, taking the colour above the natural crease line-but keep the edges soft

Using a fine tipped brush apply Hepcat to the bottom lashline from the outter corner to where you applied your Pink Pearl pigment

Using a fluffy brush blend some more hepcat on the outer corner of the eye and slightly into the crease

Take your eyeliner and drasw a line of medium thickness on the top lashline, and smuge a small amount onto the lower lashline

To soften the line smudge a small amount of Sketch into your liner

Add mascara and fill in brows-then you're done!

It would be ok, but as the VPs tend to be more pigmented than Lustres you would probably need to use a light hand or else it would end up being too close in colour/pigment depth to rule. Paradisco might be a better dupe?

I'd love to see some pics if you try it out!!
