So I missed a St. Patrick's day by a long shot, but I had this look planned about a month ago. I did it once but it didn't look so hot. So I redid it for today. I hope you like it. You could have so many variations on the color for this one, but I went with green because it's a color I rarely wear.
EOTD: Green Menace
(Excuse the one eyebrow hair that decided to march to it's own drummer..)
MAC E/S - Cool Heat (outer 1/3 of eye)
NARS E/S Duo - Pandora; the Black over Cool Heat & the white to blend out the line
I want to take a quick moment to say that it's important you understand your own eye shape. I have a very almond shaped eye which is why I always think my eye makeup looks weird with my eyes closed. But when the eye opens it looks fine. Some people have rounder eyes, monolids, double lids, high brows, low brows. These all factor in to how you should place your eye makeup. Like for me, I have to run the shadow higher up on my lid than I think is normal because I pretty much have mono lids (one slightly double the other mono LOL) So just play with it until you figure it out like myself! It's just makeup, so have fun because it can all be wiped away when you want it to be!
I paired it with this lip. Made a nice soft petal of color, I really like it.
Lip Products used:
MAC Dazzleglass - Funtabulous
Revlon ColorBurst Lipgloss - Fire
I ran Funtabulous on the outer edge of my lips then used fire in the middle. I took a lipstick brush and blended the two colors together.
And here was the overall look...I just could not get a good full face picture, so will a 3/4 face do? :)
Face Products Used:
Blush: MAC Hello Kitty Collection -Tippy
Foundation: Revlon Photo Ready Fdtn - mixed #008 & #010
Powder: Pur Minerals 4-in-1 foundation in Medium Dark
I have got to go get color matched at MAC soon! I can't find a single foundation that matches me. I'm not NC35 anymore since the beach last year and I'm not dark enough for NC40, somewhere in between. As always you don't have to use the same products if you are going to try this look, just have fun!
