memories of spring // pop of color makeup tutorial

While fall is my favorite time of year, the crossover month between fall and winter is probably my least favorite. The trees are dead, the air is cold, and it's all-around pretty gloomy. Once you enter the holiday season however, things brighten up a bit. I listened to Christmas music all morning just to get in the mood. The "Elf" soundtrack? Probably my favorite. What do you do to get in the holiday spirit?

Anyway, this is a fun little makeup tutorial that has a pop of color that compliments pretty much any eye color. I wanted to make it because I was sick of all the dull colors outside :)

Products Used:

Tarte Amazonian Clay Waterproof Cream Eyeshadow in Seashell Pink

Madison Street Beauty Shadow in Carnation

Madison Street Beauty Shadow in Golden Olive

Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips Eyeliner in Green

CoverGirl LiquiLine Blast in Black Fire

CoverGirl Professional Super Thick Lash Mascara in Black

Step 1: Prime your eyes. I used a shimmery pink-ish cream shadow for this step.

Step 2: Pack a light shimmery pin shadow all over your lids. The pink tones warm up your eyes and complements every eye color!

Step 3: Apply a green shadow in your outer corner, crease, and lower lash line. (Blue-eyed girls, I suggest using a gray or blue shadow for this step!)

Step 4: Run a green eyeliner on your waterline. (Blue-eyed girls, use a blue or navy!)

Step 5: Apply black liner on the outer half of your top lash line, making the line slightly thicker at the outer edge. Then smudge it out.

Step 6: Coat your lashes with a few coats of black mascara.

Fill in your brows and you're done! As I said throughout the tutorial, you blue-eyed beauties may way to switch out the greens for gray and blue, but for everyone else just keep it the same.

Happy Monday!
