Smokey green eye makeup

Hey everyone!

Pantone has declared Emerald as the Color of the Year 2013 and today I’m doing a simple emerald smokey eye tutorial using Lakme Absolute eye shadow duo in Day Queen. Coral is my favorite color to pair with green and I’ve worn a dusty coral lip gloss and blush with this eye makeup.

Hope you like the look, don’t forget to leave your comments below!

Smokey Emerald eye makeup with coral lips

Hey everyone!

Today I’m doing a look with a gorgeous emerald green eye shadow which I’d swatched recently in my Sunday swatch Gallery post. The shade is Bourjois Ombre A Paupieres Eyeshadow : 07 Noir Emeraude and it’s a blackened forest green with a bit of jewelled emerald touch. I have been loving greens lately and have decided to do at least 2 looks with every green I own.

I’ve paired a very simple green eye with a sheer red lip gloss. Red contrasts with green and even though its quite sheer, it brings out the lushness of the green.

Hey everyone!

Last Sunday I swatched my Green/Olive eye shadow collection for the Sunday swatch Gallery and promised a few green eye makeup looks, here’s the first of them! I’ve paired a shimmery smokey golden olive eye with an earthy coral lipstick and warm peachy blush. Its one of my favorite combinations, hope you all like the look!
