Enchanting Green: EOTD Tutorial

Hi there! I'm sorry I didn't get this post up yesterday, I've been and still am insanely busy with work but I'm still going to do my best to get posts up. :)
The eye look I'm doing today is a very simple and sophisticated look but it's summery as well. :) Great for a night out.
The colours I'm primarily using are green, gold and copper. I'm using my Coastal Scents palette but you can use whatever similar colours you have, play around with it. :)

This is the finished eye look:


So, let's start!

Step 1: Clean and prime! Then right above your lash line, halfway to the crease pat on a coppery eyeshadow.
All the late nights are really showing, eh?
Step 2: Right above the copper, upto the crease, sweep on some dusty gold and blend the two.


Step 3: My camera hasn't picked up the colour very well, but on the crease, like shown, blend on some light yellowy  green, blend it out well and also into the gold.


Step 4:  On the outer corner of the crease, pat on a dark green and blend into the rest of the crease. Keep the colour intense in the corner though.


Step 5: Highlight the brow bone and inner corner of the eye with a gold shadow. I also lined my lower lash line with a copper pencil, you can use the same copper shadow, if a pencil is unavailable.


Step 6: Give a winged line to the eye with a gel or liquid liner. You cn find the tutorial here. Water line and tightline your eyes and don't skimp on mascara!


And done! Pair with nude or pink lips!


I hope you enjoyed this simple, classy and earthy look! I'm sorry I have to cut short now, I had so many things to talk about, but later.. I just found out my wallet got lost and someone found it, so i have to go pick it up! What luck!
Anyhoo, please leave your comments, I always love them! And also, if there are any looks that you guys would like to see me do tuts on, let me know in comments or on Facebook! Gotta go! Bye~
