Sparkling Green St. Patrick's Day Eye Makeup Tutorial

Here's another green look I did for St. Patrick's Day. It's not super amazing or anything, but these eyeshadows are gorgeous and so sparkly! I wore it for my monthly Girls Night. We made pizza and watched movies/shows on Netflix. Was a fun night!

The eye look was created using shadows from Morgana Cryptoria.


 


 
 
 
 
 
I made zee necklace and hair clips.

 Me, Nicole and April

 Silly Nicole! Sweet April. Wow! My hair almost matches my curtains!

Yummy fruit pizza I made for dessert! It's a sugar cookie crust, with cream cheese and marshmallow "sauce" topped with blueberries, raspberries and strawberries. Was sooo good! Too pretty to not take a picture of it. :-)

For a while now I've been using Coastal Scents Synthetic Brushes and I LOVE them! So I'll mention which brushes I used through out the tutorial. 
Any part where you see me using the same brush more than once, I always wipe any excess shadow off of the brush before applying a new shadow. I use cloth diapers as my brush cleaner/wiper, rather than being wasteful and using tissue paper.  I always completely clean my brushes between each makeup look that I do (using Cinema Secrets brush cleaner), to keep them clean and to avoid color transfer.
 Start by applying your favourite eye primer. I used Coastal Scents Shadow Worx Eye Primer. Then apply a very sticky base (Sobe's Stick It!, Fyrinnae's Pixie Epoxy or Darling Girls Cosmetics Glitter Glue all work great).

 Apply Morgana Cryptoria - Enchanted Forest, to the outer V and outer1/2 of crease, with CS's Classic Shadow Angle Synthetic Brush.

 Apply Morgana Cryptoria - Arcana, to the lid and inner crease, with CS's Classic Synthetic Blender Brush by lightly patting and blending outward.

 Apply Morgana Cryptoria - Glowing Ghoul, to the inner V with CS's Classic Detail Pointed Synthetic Brush by patting and sweeping outward.

 Apply Morgana Cryptoria - Enchanted Forest, to the inner half of lower lash line, with CS's Classic Liner Medium Synthetic Brush.

 Apply Morgana Cryptoria - Arcana, to the outer half of lower lash line, with CS's Classic Liner Medium Synthetic Brush.

 Using CS's Classic Shadow Large Synthetic brush, apply a skin tone shadow or use a powder foundation to blend and soften any harsh edges.

 Apply Ardell Brow Powder - Soft Black, to the upper lash line with CS's Classic Liner Medium Synthetic Brush.

 Apply 1-2 coats of your fav mascara.

For the rest of what is on my face:
Eyebrows: e.l.f. Baked Eyeshadow - Burnt Plum (applied with CS's Classic Liner Medium Synthetic Brush)

Lips: e.l.f. Lip Balm SPF 15 - Plum

Face: 
Skin MD Shielding lotion 
Sobe Botanicals Mineral Powder Foundation - Light Warm (applied with CS's small classic synthetic buffer brush)
Sobe Tinted Illusionist Powder (applied with CS's small classic synthetic buffer brush) 
NYX blush - Taupe (applied just below the cheek bones to contour using CS's Classic Blush Small Angle Synthetic Brush)
e.l.f. Baked Blush - Peachy Keen (applied to cheek bones and blending back toward the hair line with CS's Classic Blush Large Angle Synthetic Brush)
