Hi guys! I hope you had a good start to your week (and thank goodness Monday is over..) ;)

I really wanted to share an eye makeup look I did on Saturday. I have green/brown eyes and I bought some green eyeshadows a while ago since I thought they will make my eye color pop. I hadn't used them yet because I'm quite afraid of using colored eyeshadows on my eyes. I always use earth and neutral tones on my eyes so using colors is a big step. So, I tried out a look with green eyeshadow and a green eye pencil. I'm not too great at taking pictures of myself or of my makeup, so you'll have to bear with me until I get a bit better at it :)

This eye makeup look actually came out very natural, considering I used green tones. I really like it!

These are the products I used:

Here are the steps to create this eye makeup look:

After doing my face makeup and my eyebrows, I continue on to my eyes. With my ring finger, I apple a very thin layer of MAC Prep+Prime eye primer. This helps keep my eye shadow from disappearing throughout the day. Then, again with my ring finger, I add MAC paint pot in "Groundwork" to my lids. This is a bit darker than my skin tone and helps the ivory color stand out more. With my MAC 228 shader brush I apply Estée Lauder ShadowCreme in the shade 06 "Ivory Lace". I try not to pull it back and forth, I rather pat it on my lid with the brush. If I want to make that ivory color even shinier, I add the L'Oréal Color Infaillible shadow in the shade 002 "Hourglass Beige". This is a very nice, shimmery, pigmented beige/ivory shadow.

For my crease, I use a Sigma double sided brush (E30 is a smaller, pointed brush and E25 is a larger blending brush). Since I experimented with green for the first time, I took the E30 brush and applied the L'Oréal Color Infaillible shadow in shade 009 "Permanent Kaki" to my crease. I then blended it into my crease using the E25 blending brush. I added more of the "Permanent Kaki" shade a few times since I wanted the green to be more pigmented. I continued to blend it until I was happy with the pigmentation and at the same time formed a v-shape from the corner of my eye outwards into my crease. This adds some shape and of course depth to my eyes. To make the green pop a bit more, I added the shadow "Humid" from MAC. I applied this with the E30 brush, into my crease, making a v-shape. I didn't blend this out, because it added more depth into the middle of my crease. Last step for my eye shadow: I took a regular shader brush and applied the shade "Elope" from the Sigma "Bare" palette under my eyebrows. This works as a highlighter and it blends my crease color to make it look softer.

I created a winged eyeliner using my Smashbox Limitless Liquid Liner in dark brown and applied MAC Powerpoint Eye Pencil in "Stubborn Brown" to my lower lash line. I don't pull the eye liner on the bottom lash line too far into my inner corner as to keep my eyes from looking smaller. I then also added some green to my lower lash line: I applied the MAC Pearlglide Intense Eye Liner in "Undercurrent" directly on top of the brown liner. This adds some color without making it to in-your-face.

I finish off my eye look with one coat of Diorshow Maximizer Lash Plumping Serum and two or three coats of Diorshow black mascara to my upper and lower lashes.

Et voilà!
