St. Patrick’s Day Inspired Green-Gold Eye Makeup Tutorial
I know, St. Patrick’s Day was a while back, but still, I was inspired to do this and better late than never right! Sweet, wonderful and resident diva, Rati sent me a Lakme Botanica quad with my lipstick purchases during the last “clearance sale” here on IMBB. :heart: It has a beautiful light and bright green that I just had to try as soon as possible! Green and gold is anyway such a beautiful combination that one really doesn’t need an excuse to try it on. :yes:
Products Used For This Makeup Tutorial:
- Lakme Quad – Peacock (Shade Used: Green).
- Lakme Quad – Botanica (Shades used: Beige, Light Green).
- Faces Canada Sparkle Dust Stack – Rainbow (Shade Used: Iridescent Green-Blue Sparkles).
- Victoria’s Secret Beauty Rush Wet/Dry Eye Shadow – Gold Rush.
- Florelle Kajal.
- Lakme Insta Liner.
- Estee Lauder Projectionist Mascara.
- NYX Eyeshadow Base.
Step 1:
Apply a primer and concealer to the entire upper eyelid and the lower lash line. I avoid applying concealer under the eyes as there can be fall out, especially with that dark green color.
Step 2:
I avoid plucking my eyebrows. So, I use NYX eyeshadow base, apply it so as to form a desired arch/curve for my eyebrows, then blend it down. I then take a very thin brush, apply some kajal on it and fill in any sparse areas on my brows.
Step 3:
I then applied the beige/gold color in the “Botanica quad” on my brow bone and the light green color in the same quad over my entire lid, staying away from the crease.
Step 4:
Taking an angular brush, I then formed a triangular section within the outer corner with the darker green color from the “Peacock” quad.
I kept taking more color till I was satisfied with the color depth, shape and blending. I blended it out a little past my crease and towards the inner corner, but still kept the triangular shape on the outer corner.
Step 5:
I then applied a shimmery gold on the brow bone, as I felt that beige color applied earlier was a bit too matte and light.
Step 6:
To open up the eyes more and brighten the inner corners, I applied a greenish iridescent sparkle from the “Faces Rainbow Stack.” It appears white in the pot, but when applied, only the green/silver sparkles in it are visible. It is a BEAUTIFUL sparkle! I also applied the bright gold on the inner half of my lower lash line and dark green on the outer half. I also cleaned up under my eyes and applied some concealer.
Step 7:
I then applied my favourite intense kajal on my waterlines, lined my eyes with a very dark eyeliner and applied mascara.
That’s it! The look is done!
Without flash: I love how only the iridescent color on the inner corners sparkles and the rest remains fairly non-shimmery without the flash!
I hope you ladies liked this look and that the colors inspire you to get creative too! :yes:
Happy Makeuping! 😀
