Things I Love: Green&Brown&Gold

Okayyy today was graduation and it was a blaassttt congratulatiions to sebass, shirlz and babs I'm so proudd :) Anyway, so I am going to a little partayy and I did a green and gold/brown look which came out pretty well.

I put the green on first, on the lid, then I put the dark brown on the crease and then I put some gold shimmer thingy on the brow bone. After that i blended them all together with another goldish colour. I think the biggest thing with make up is the blending. if you are using really loud colours, you need to blend them in really well. Sometimes people just put on the eye shadow with the sponge tipped little things (heres a picture on the left) and then they just go. you need to blend it in properly or else its just going to look like you have slapped on some colour which doesn't look too good. You can blend in with a brush like thiss--->(below) even if you are using just one colour on your eyes.

Another thing--eyebrows. Hi guys, if you feel the need to pencil in your eyebrows because you feel like they are too thin orr they are sparse or whatever, please try and use a brown pencil no matter how dark you are. Black pencils are too harsh and they make the eyebrows stand out and take over your face. You want to look like its natural not like you drew them on.

Okay, one more thing, its better to use a soft pencil for your lower lid because they go on easily. If the tip of the eye liner is hard, you will probably end up poking your eye or you will have to leave the house with red eyes. Also, please try not to over-line your lower lid. try and aim for the water line only and not around the whole eye. Its more subtle and it makes your eyes pop better :) when you line the whole bottom lid, it takes over your face and looks like you are trying too hard.
