makeup trend alert: green eye shadow and liner

lately, i have been wanting to wear green eyeshadow and liner as much as possible. This is partially because green is on the opposite end of the color spectrum from brown, which makes brown eyes "pop".

When searching through some other makeup sites, i noticed that green eye makeup is all over the fashion forecast for the spring, not only just for brown eyes, but also for all different eye colors. the reason why this color is so flattering is because it makes the whites of the eyes look whiter.

I usually wear green eye makeup in the form of eyeliner under my eyes, but here are some other ways that green makeup can be applied:
- a light green shadow applied in the inner corner of the eye
- shadow or liner smudged along the lower lash line

here are some of my favorite green liners to use:
1. urban decay 24/7 glide on eye pencil in mildew - a deep, dark metallic green
2. urban decay 24/7 glide on eye pencil in covet - a bright green
3. urban decay 24/7 glide on eye pencil in stash - a brown-green
4. sephora nano eyeliner in silver green

you can find the 24/7 liners at sephora and at ulta. they are the same price at each store.

hope this post inspired you to try green eye makeup! :)
