FOTD: St. Patrick's Day

Today's makeup look is inspired by today's holiday - St. Patrick's Day. I originally wanted to do a BRIGHT green look like I did last year, but the look came out darker. I was actually surprisingly happy with the darkness of this look. I also received a compliment while I was out eating breakfast with my boyfriend. I think that the darker greens bring out my brown eyes more. 


 Here is what the eye makeup looks like up close on the eye. I started with a lighter green in the inner corner and worked out to a darker green mixed with black to define the outer-v area.

Eyes:Urban Decay Primer Potion
L'oreal infallible in Golden Emerald (as a base)

FOTD: Oil Slick Inspired






Yesterday I saw this photo of this makeup and I absolutely fell in love with it and wanted to re-create it. I  have been feeling in a bit of a makeup rut. With working again, I have mostly been doing neutral looks. It felt really good to get out and do something a little more dramatic. I made the rest of my face very neutral to balance out the heavy eye makeup.

Fourth of July

 Happy Independence Day everyone! I really wanted to do a fun patriotic look to celebrate this holiday. I used shades of blue and white on the lid with some fun gold glitter to spice it up a little bit. I also created a winged liner look using some red eyeliner to give a little pop. I kept the rest of the face neutral to balance out the dramatic eyes. I'm really happy with how the look came out. Let me know what you think!
