I have one that is very minty so I think a good example. The eyelids are indeed paler then the pink of her fur but the eyes are unmistakably purple. Of course keep in mind that different batches may of had slightly different shades, but red pigment is also notorious for fading which would leave the purple looking more blue like you describe.
