Metallic Pale Green Eyes

 A nice witchy green look for a rainy day. Let me know what you think of the little photoshop step-by-step drawing, by the way. Is it helpful? I suppose I should be drawing these things by hand, but it's easier to demonstate the colours to you if I use photoshop instead.




♥ Natural Collection eyeshadow in 'snowstorm' in the inner corner and as a brow highlight
♥ Boots 17 'green glimmer' on the whole lid
♥ A darker, blue-bases green in the crease
♥ Mac matte eyeshadow in 'carbon' to give extra depth to the crease and under the eye
♥ Finish with mascara and liquid eyeliner under the eye and a huge wing above the eye

♥ Also, for extra sparkle, I added a tiny line of Collection 2000's Glam Crystals Dazzling Gel Liner in 'Rock Chick' just on the line of my upper lashes. I really like Collection 2000's glitter eyeliner compared to other brands I've tried: they go on softly so they don't make your eyelids feel stiff and dry, but they also have a lot of colour and glitter in them so they're still noticable. 'Rock Chick' is a lovely black colour with silver glitter.



My sister got me this necklace years ago from a shop called Lalaland in Glasgow which is incidently a shop I sold some dress-up dolls in recently. Funny how these things happen.

      Thanks, Magda! :) My sister got me that necklace years ago. I wish I could remember the make of it. They seem to be everywhere now though.

      Aw, thanks Vivian! That's really kind :) Have you tried any of the brighter or darker natural collection eyeshadows, by the way? I've only ever used light ones (for highlights) so I don't know how pigmented the darker ones are of if they blend well or not. I imagine they'd be quite good.

      Aw, thanks Miss! Haha, it just takes a steady hand, or just loooots of practice and then you don't need a steady hand anymore. Using Fast Stroke eyeliner by Collection 2000 is a help too. It has a big, fat nib with a very fine point so you can slap it on thickly but still get a very precise line.
