Green In Makeup?

Last night when trying to add some of my school colors into my makeup I realized so many people find ways to incorporate blues and purples into their makeup, yet I see little to none trying to incorporate greens or even pinks.

I found that using a subtle mossy green in my crease really did the same job as a neutral brown would.  I do suggest however you don't go crazy with the green because the wrong shade can make you look like you have a black eye!

Here are some high-end and drugstore shadows I recommend.

This is Mary Kay Lemongrass eye shadow.. the picture doesn't show the yellowy tone to it but it's a great all over lid color that isn't too green!


 This is Mary Kay Emerald eye shadow.  I recommend you try a emerald tone green eye shadow verses the mossy green I talked about earlier. Chances are the pigmentation will be better and it will be closer to a green you are looking for.






 This is the Maybelline eye shadow set in Green, the colors here are perfect for defining the crease and creating a light lid for a perfect subtle look:)









This is a Maybelline quad in Green with Envy.  The champagne is perfect for the lid and the green is ideal for an outerhalf of the lid or crease defining shade!




I hope you guys try to add some green into your makeup looks! It's a really simple and easy way to switch up your makeup without looking unnatural:)
