LOOK | Sparkling Emerald.

So here's another face of the day kind of post, it's another night look. Yes, this one is more exciting that the plain brown smokey eye that I did last time. It's not very often I use colour anymore, but there are a few colours which I love to play around with. Namely burgundy and emerald green.

Since I was planning to wear my favourite green & navy patterned shift dress I thought i'd emerald my self up and luckily for me, my sister just bought a deep green pigment.

The face makeup is applied exactly as I always do it except I decided to mix together my Dr Jart Beauty Balm & my Dior Forever foundation (010) to get a little bit more coverage. Problem skin, waahhh.

So, for my eyes I used my super sparkly Illamasqua Liquid Metal in Surge as a base, since I was using a pigment I wanted to ensure it adhered well. Then from my Naked 2 Palette I used Tease though the crease & Busted on the outer v of my eyes for definition. And the star of the show, the green pigment. It's by a brand called Mineral Hygenics (I've never heard of them either.) in the shade Emerald. With a MAC 239 I pushed that over my eyelid. As a final touch, after a lot of blending, I used Urban Decay's Foxy as a highlight.

Hello close-up!

And to finish everything off, I popped on a somewhat sheer nude lip. Its a Maybelline Colour Sensational lipstick in 842 Rosewood Pearl.

Ta-da!
