St. Patrick's Day Eye Look + NYC Review

St. Patrick's day is right around the corner! It's time to bust out the green to ward off the pinching. This is a simple eye look for us monolids that will go great with our green nails and green shirts! In my opinion this would work best for monolids and look better with glasses than without.

Start out with an eye shadow primer to get the maximum color and time out of your eye shadow. About a rice grain size amount for each eye. Then starting with the lighter green eye shadow color, sweep it across your lid from your inner corner to about 3/4 the way. You want to check to see that the color shows when you open your eyes. About half a centimeter of color showing above your eye when open is good. Take the darker green and create a wing at the outer corner and blend it into the lighter green as you sweep in. Concentrate the darker green at the outer wing and corner. Blend well for a gradient effect. Next take a black eyeliner (Pencil, gel, liquid, whatever) and line your eyes, winging it out by following the eye shadow wing. I like adding a little sparkle so I took a black glitter eyeliner and went over the line I made and then lined my lower lash line. The reason I go over a line I already made is because glitter eyeliners don't glide on as smooth so it would be difficult to make a wing with them. Apply mascara if you please. I think it would be best to put on a sheer pink or nude lip color with these eyes to attract more focus to your eyes. Red lips would look a bit tacky with this eye look. 

NYC's City Duet Eyeshadows are pretty nice. The only things is that you have to build up the color. NYC's eye shadow applicators are too small and just plain suck. It blends well together and is pretty cheap at $2.99 USD. 

Look at them early crow's feet. ): Peace.
