Here's a makeup look that's pretty easy to do, doesn't involve blending two hundred shades of eyeshadow, and that looks rather nice on greenish eyes. Copper is a great juxtaposition to green, and even though my eyes veer more towards hazel than towards a pure green, the copper shadows used really bring out the green.
Here's the look within the context of my whole face (and wet hair). It's interesting: photographing makeup like this helps you to realise how your makeup looks outside of the mirror; I'm always very careful with blush as I don't want to overdo it. In reality, you can barely see the peachy blush I'm wearing here... so tomorrow, I'll be slapping on a bit more.

This is such a beautiful look :) It really suits your complexion.
ReplyDeleteThe eyeshadow really brings the colour of your eyes out.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about makeup outside the mirror. When I apply my blusher in my bedroom and look in the mirror, I can't even see it. When I check it in the bathroom though, it's clear I've got a little too much on. I shudder to think of the times I've been to work without checking in the bathroom mirror.
This is such a nice eye look. It really does bring out the green and I can see that most obviously on the full face picture. Lovely!
ReplyDeleteThanks ladies! :)
ReplyDeleteWow this looks gorgeous on you! The copper really does bring out the green in your eyes and the eyeliner makes them look really intense. I love the blush on you too, you just look very healthy :)
ReplyDeleteThat is a wonderful color on you
ReplyDeleteI actually love this even more with your hair colour than your eye colour :)
