•► LOTD ~ Green Undertones ◄•

Today's look is all about the eyeshadow and lipgloss with green undertones, or iridescent makeup, as I like to call it. I created a subtle cut-crease eye look using mostly colors with beautiful green shimmers. And this is how it ended up looking like:

The first thing I did was to apply a primer and then I placed a green cream base all over my lid. I started from the inner corner and applied a shimmery light green eyeshadow on the first two thirds of my lid.

On the last third of my upper lid I applied a shimmery darker green with blue and gold undertones. I did then a cut-crease using a brown with strong green undertones, and blended the colors well to avoid harsh lines.

To darken up the outer corner, I chose a shimmery gray-black eyeshadow and placed it in the outer hollows of my upper lid, blending well. On my lower lid and lashline I placed the brown on the outer half and the light green on the inner half of the eye.

I applied a black liquid liner on my upper lid, black kohl on my waterline, false lashes and a coat of mascara on both my up and bottom lashes. I also tightlined my upper lashline with black kajal, to darken up the look even more.

For my cheeks I used a sheer pink blush and as for my lips, a brown lip liner, a raspberry colored lipstick and to give the lips some glow, I applied a light brown lipgloss with green undertones. And that's the complete process.
