Glowing Green Smoky Eyes (And I'm Back!)

Hey everyone!

So I've been away from Youtube/blogging for a while... crazy semester, applying for Uni, relationships, work, moving, a month traveling, getting accepted into Uni, yadda yadda yadda. I'M BACK!!!

Due to the above (i.e. no time for anything at all ever), I haven't actually worn makeup beyond mascara and maybe a bit of eyebrow and blush in a loooooong time. However, I had not disappeared from the beauty world completely!

The few minutes a day I had to myself, I still searched for some inspiration, but more through the realm of art, what with being an art student and all. Occasionally, I would happen upon a beautiful photo, like this one, and feel that familiar tingle.


Ahh, the tingle. The tingle that precedes a makeup video on my channel. The tingle that reminds me how much fun colour on a face can be.

And now that I am not having mental breakdowns every other week from academic overload, I have time to indulge in that tingle! Which brings us to this video.

Acid Green Tutorial

Hey there!
Anyone realize that I like colour? In case you were unaware, I do!

Now, it can be kind of funny when you wear eye makeup that is the same hue as your eyes for a few reasons. If you have green eyes like me, green eyeshadow can really bring out the brightness of the green in your eyes. It depends on if your eyes are more on the yellow side or more on the blue side, or grey. If you want to pop the colour of your eyes, use eyeshadow that has the OPPOSITE undertone.

My eyes are more on the blue-grey side so I used bright yellow-lime greens.

If you don't have green eyes, well phooey!
