makeuplook

eotd

i did a bright green eye look a while ago and really like it. since i had a bit of time this morning (still on leave!) i decided to modify the look slightly with an extra color. so that it's less boring than my usual looks created with just a single eyeshadow.

i was thinking about doing contrasting colors but changed my mind. it's better to stick to something simple with my not-so-great makeup skill.

brm acid and hvc rocket queen

eyeshadows used to create this look. brm eyeshadow in acid, which was the essence in previous look. it's a nice matte yellowy green. hvc eyeshadow in rocket queen that sparkles beautifully under sunlight (no longer available because the site has disappeared).

the eyes were primed with a layer of de leon cometics primer followed by evil shades evilprimer.

rocket queen to from inner corner to 2/3 of the eyes. acid was applied to outer corner and blended back 1/2 way on the crease. as usual, leftover colors on the brush on lower lashlines. i also added brm eyeshadow in bonehead from crease to brow bone.

completed the eyes with tightlining and a coat of mascara.

fotd in am

i love it when there was great natural light. i didn't need to do much gimping to have good fotd.

i was also surprised that this photo turns out nicely because i think i looked jaundiced in real life with too much yellow on the eyes. (although the husband said i don't look jaundiced... i'm too critical of myself lol!)

on my lips, morgana cryptoria lipstick in 24k pumpkin. love it!
