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!

Funky Purple and Turquoise Tutorial

Hey there...
As I mention in the tutorial, I dont really wear purple eyeshadow much anymore, because my hair is purple. I feel like purple hair, purple eyebrows and purple eyeshadow is just.... too grape-like for my personal taste.

But hey, maybe it works for you.

Anyway, I have enough purple eyeshadow to cater to an army of non purple-haired people, and I hate neglecting how preeeeeetty it looks on! To give it a little something to balance out the purple overload, i added a pop of teal to my lower lashline (I wonder if anyone guessed that there are my two favourite colours).

Hope you enjoy!



Sixites Inspired Makeup - HD

Why haloo there.
I should have posted this the day I uploaded the tutorial, but oh well.

In this video, I did a sixties INSPIRED makeup look. Obviously, every person alive in the 1960's did not walk around looking like this, and there are other variations of this style. Also, I didn't put falsies on, though thick lashes were a MUST in this period... not that I was there, but--

I felt like wearing baby blue eyeshadow and thick liner, so :) Enjoy!
