Soft, Simple Green and Purple look using Aromaleigh

It's been a great weekend! Got back from camping a little while ago, we are tired! I'll post details and pics from the camping trip soon.  My skin broke out and my psoriasis flared up a bit from the trip, but it's not terrible. It is noticeable in the pics (psoriasis is in left corner mouth/laugh line and chin area, tiny zits on forehead) but like I said, it's not terrible. It's just there.
  I wasn't planning on doing makeup once I got home but decided to go ahead and do a soft and simple look. No glitter and no fake lashes. I wanted to see how my lashes were doing in the growing out process as I (like many of you) have long lashes with see through tips. So I can't see the length until I put mascara on. They have gotten longer but aren't back to their original length. Although only the outer corner lashes are freakishly long and back to normal. I am a HUGE dork and measured them...they are over half an inch long! Holy crap! The ones on my right eye look nuts. I could use a lash straightener or something...you can click on all pics to enlarge them and see what I mean. :-O

Anyway! Here's the look. Seems almost boring when used to wearing glitter and faux lashes. But it's nice to switch things up from time to time.

Too Faced Shadow Insurance
Detrivore Eye Primer (applied all around the eye and rubbed in gently with ring finger)

  1. I love the way the eye colors and the lip color compliment each other on this look. Purple eyeliner on green shadow is so cool to look at.
    Once again, you did a great job!
