Lime Green Purple and Black Eye Makeup Tutorial
Hello Lovely Ladies,
This is my second eye makeup tutorial here. I am trying my hands on dramatic eye makeup and experimenting with some not-so-wearable eye shadow colors. I have always found it difficult to pull off eyeshadows in the hues of green, especially bright greens and it becomes all the more difficult when you use contrasting colors, but I am glad how it turned out.
So, let’s get started:
Products Used:
- Artistry Oil Control Foundation.
- NYX Long Eye Pencil (Black).
- BH Cosmetics 120 Color Eyeshadow Palette 1st Edition.
- ELF Studio Eye Makeup Brushes.
Step 1:
Apply eyeshadow primer on the entire eyelid and around. I haven’t applied any primer, instead I have used Artistry Oil Control foundation all over the eye.
Step 2:
Apply shimmery lime green eyeshadow on the entire lid fading into the crease area. Just pat the eyeshadow evenly. (In the picture, mine looks light at the center of the eyelid because of the flash used while taking the shot).
Step 3:
Apply purple eyeshadow on the outer V of the eye and into the crease. Just don’t extend it till the inner corner of the eye. Also, blend the purple eyeshadow with the lime green eyeshadow applied on the lid to avoid any harsh lines.
Step 4:
Apply matte black eyeshadow on the outer V and in the crease covering 2/3rd of the crease. Build up the color at the outer V gradually fading in as you go further into the crease.
Then take some light purple eyeshadow and apply it above the crease (above the black eyeshadow) and blend into soften the harsh lines of the black eyeshadow.
Step 5:
Take some more matte black eyeshadow and extend it till the inner corner of the eye.
(Note: You can also do this in step 3 before applying light purple. I didn’t do it as I didn’t want to go overboard with the matte black eyeshadow. I find it easier to keep alternating the colors for better control ). Then, keep alternating between the matte black and light purple eyeshadow until its blended in properly. Now, take pearl-colored eyeshadow and flush it with a sweeping motion above the light purple eyeshadow right till the inner corner.
Step 6:
Highlight the brow bone with the matte white eyeshadow and apply some pearl eyeshadow in the inner corner of the eye.
Tight line the upper lash line and apply black winged eyeliner.
Step 7:
Take some purple eyeshadow and apply it under the lower lash line with an angled brush and extend it half way. Next, apply black eyeliner/kohl on the waterline. Connect the eyeliner applied on the upper and lower lid.
I haven’t applied a mascara or curled my lashes, but if you want, you can go for it because mascara adds to the oomph and enhances the entire look.
You are done 🙂
Thank you lovely ladies, I hope you liked the tutorial. Would love to hear your suggestions and tips on eyeshadow application and especially blending techniques and it would be great if you could share as to how you use the not-so-wearable colors and contrasting colors.

Nandini thanks hun.. :puchhi: :puchhi:
Nandini I was talking abt such palettes when you posted a query on FB the other day. BH Cosmetics has a sale on these palettes flat 40% off but the internation shipping is some $13 :(( :((
check Ebay there are loads of such palettes and are inexpensive too .. Coastal Scents, Manly, BH Cosmetics then Sedona Lace, Pro they all buy such palettes in bulk from manufacturer and sell them with their respective names stamped on them. so basically all these palettes are same.
:teddy: :teddy: Do you have any seller in mind on Ebay? Have never tried eBay or PayPal and I’m unsure 🙁 🙁 I want Coastal Scents or Urban Decay 😀 😀 where did you get this, from BH??
Nandini I got this from Amazon. Actually my sis got this one for me from US. I have never purchased through ebay but while hunting for this palette I saw several palettes on ebay but amazon had free shipping to US and hence I opted for it…
if u try ebay make sure you check the seller’s rating
I found some on ebay
