St.Patty's Day!

Since I am of Irish heritage, I knew that I had to post something for you guys!! As you all may know I typically stick to green or natural colors on my eyes, but today I tried something a little different!!


So I pretty much just took my normal green eye shadow look (as seen on my http://hairdare.blogspot.com/2012/03/green-eyed-goddess.html post) After I finished that I used this product: 

This is liquid eyeliner by Warpaint beauty, in the color T-Rex. You can find this product online or in stores at hot topic. This stuff is pretty easy to use if you can use other liquid liners then you can use this! Its pretty vibrant even with the first swipe but I used a second thin layer on top. 













This is my end result! :) Vibrant, festive and fun. Not my typical style but I thought it was super cute!! 














Happy St. Patrick's Day!! Thanks for reading!! leave me some comments below! ;) xo

Green eyed goddess!!


Exotic green eyes, green eyes are the least common natural eye color. Only 1.2%  of the worlds population has green eyes. Here are 2 eye shadow techniques for all of you out there with green eyes!!

 The first technique is complimenting your eyes with a complimentary color! Greens complimentary color is red. So I used a light bronze gold, and a lovely coral color. This is more of a natural, less dramatic look to make your eyes pop!!









To get this look, take that bronze color and apply it all over your lid. Next Use a coral color and apply that to the outer half of the eyelid. That's really all for this look!! :)









The next look I did, was just enhancing your eye color with a monochromatic look! This as you know is (in my opinion) the best way to make your eyes pop! This is definitely a dramatic look.










For this eye shadow look I applied a gold all over the eyelid. I took a pale green and added this to the outer 3/4 of the eyelid. To finish it off i added a dark emerald green to the outer corner and crease!











I hope you guys try this out!! I personally have a  mix between green and blue eyes, so I use the blue and the green techniques! You can mix and match too!! Let me know what you guys think and if you try them out!! Question, comments, requests, and pictures in the comment box bellow!! :) Thanks for reading!!

blue eyed bombshell!!


Blue eyes, the eyes many wish they had! Live it up!! Play up those lovely eyes with these simple eye shadow techniques!! 

I've said it before, I'll say it again. In my opinion the BEST way to make your eye color pop is with matching eye shadow!! Blue on blue, with out a doubt people will notice your eyes!!












For this eye shadow look I started with a white eye shadow for the base. I took a light blue and added that to inner half of the eyelid and faded that out with a dark blue. Then use a dark blue eyeliner on the bottom waterline!









When you use a gold or orange tinted brown eye shadow the contrast will make make the blue in your eyes really pop!!











For this look I put a pale gold eye shadow all over my lid. Then I took a dark grey and just added it to my crease for some dimension!!












Green eyes are the next and final eye color for this mini series!! If you have any requests or comments leave them in the comment box below!!! :) thanks for reading!!

Gorgous grey eyes!


Grey eyes are so beautiful! Athena the geek goddess of was was believed to have eyes of grey. These powerful eyes are elegant and fun to play up!! Here are 2 makeup techniques i hope you ladies with grey eyes try!! :)

When you use dark colors on your grey eyes it will really make them pop! Using a dark charcoal black on your eyes will make them stand out!!












 This makeup look is very simple!! Take a black liner and apply it only to the lower eyelid and smudge it out apply a black eye shadow on top of that and then face out the top and the crease with a grey eye shadow! :)









For the next look i used deep jewel tones! Grey eyes are very similar to blue and most grey eyes have a blueish tint, these jewel tones with pull those flecks out to make your eyes be the center of attention!!









for this look i simply applied a deep purple to the inner half of the lid and faded that to a royal blue on the outer half! I did add a little of an emerald green right under the lashes just for one more jewel tone to add some visual interest!!










Tomorrow's eye color in the spotlight is blue!! :) Watch out for that!! I hope you guys are enjoying this mini series! Leave me a comment, or request below! Thanks for reading!! :)
