Greenery: EoTD

 How did I get this look? I used the following products:

-Wet 'n Wild Eyeshadow Primer
-Too Faced Glitter Insurance Glitter Glue
-BH Cosmetics Take Me Back to Brazil Palette
-Colourpop Good Sport Palette
-Colourpop Single Team Captain
-Looxi Green Apple Eyeshadow Single
-LA Splash Ark-i-tekt Limer
-Essence Lash Princess Mascara

 -After applying primer, I used the chartreuse pigment in the BH Cosmetics palette. As discussed elsewhere on the blog, it is probably one of the better shades, quality wise, in the palette. I ran that in the crease and up towards the brow bone.

-I then took Green Apple and blended that into the crease and on the lid.

-I then took, very carefully, Team Captain from CP, and Trophies from the GS palette, and blended that into the outer corner.

-To diffuse the look a bit more, I used the chartreuse pigment again, blending it down a bit towards my lower lash line.

-Finally, I used two shimmers from the Good Sport palette, after applying glitter glue to the first half of my lid. I used the gold shimmer Licious in the inner corner and inner part of the lid, and then the green shimmer EBB on the rest of lid, as seen below.

All in all I really like this look and would probably wear it again. Maybe not to work, though....

Lilac Monochrome LoTD

Today I wanted to do a matte eye that involved lots of expert blending, as well as a complementary pink highlighter.

Something I like to do with this blog is show how the look fared at the end of the day, to comment on the durability of the product. Though I've only been wearing this look for about three hours, I did go walking for about an hour.

The products I used are as follows:

Eyes:
Blueberry Swirl (from Dose of Colors Eyes Cream palette) (on the lid)
Inglot Matte Pink shade (in the crease)
ABH Soft Gold Shadow (in the inner corner)
Wet 'n Wild Eyeshadow Primer

Face:
Wet 'n Wild contour/highlight duo in Dulce de Leche (I only used the bronzing side)
Milani Holographic Beams highlighting palette shade Unicorn Dreams

Here are some pictures:

The pink highlighter was very difficult to photograph, even with flash. However, in regular daylight it is quite visible, and I was impressed with how long it remained on my face.

The bronzer, too, stuck around for quite a while, which I was pleased with. 

 Overall, I think this was a really pretty, elegant look that would be easy to replicate again. Next time,  I would be a little more generous with Blueberry Swirl on my eyelid, though, and make sure I put more product closer to the crease.

I think Unicorn Dreams was a very nice way to balance out the matte of the eyes, and it has become my favorite shade from the palette.
