Just a few days ago I was watching this morning show on TV (I don't remember what show lol) But the girl was so gorgeous! The min I looked at her, my eyes went to hr eye makeup. & I fell in loveeee. So I decided to create my own look inspired by hers! I really wish I could show you her face, if only my memory was good enough to remember what show or channel it was :(
Anyways, it's this really gorgeous green & gold look, mostly green though. I think this would be absolutely gorgeous for fall!
Let's get started!
Alright so, like always I start off with applying a primer to my lids.
Benefit Stay Don't Stray Primer
Now apply a cream shade all over your lid, I used the shade Foxy from the UB Naked 2 Pallet.
Optional* Now take some clear tape and place that from the corner of your eye and angle it towards the end of your brow. This is just to achieve that clean edge when our look is complete!
Now take forest green shade, mine has small gold shimmer to it.
& apply this to about halfway from the outer corner of your lid.
Now take a slightly darker green
& apply this to the outer corner, on top of other other green but about quarter of the way in. As you can see the lighter shade is still visible in the middle of the lid.
Take a matte black eye shadow, I'm using Blackout from the UB Naked 2 Pallet.
Use a pencil brush in this step for better results, & apply the black shade in the outer corner making the "<" shape. Blend it out with the green but make sure not to over blend!
Almost done! Now take this yellow-ish gold shade
& just apply that in the space we left empty towards the inner part of the eye. I find that apply the lighter shade in the inner corner last just makes the blending easier without getting rid of the colors too much!
At this step I just removed the clear tape, & cleaned up under my eyes for any fallout & such
Alright so for that softer look, I took the same black eye shadow I used (Blackout from the Naked 3 Pallet) & just applied that on my lash line with an angled brush.
Alright, instead of taking pictures of all the steps here, I decided to just write it out.
1. Apply eyeliner on your waterline (Revlon ColorStay eyeliner in black)
2. Apply eyeliner on your lash line, you now have that line we created with the black eye shadow to go over (NYC liquid eyeliner in black)
3. Curl your lashes! & apply your favorite mascara on your top & bottom lashes ( Benefit BAD gal Lash)
we're all done ! yayy
& here's the final look
I hope you guys liked this look!
