I used two different green cream shadows as a base, just to intensify the color for the pictures. This looks like a fairly tame eye… if you’re not afraid of color. Suffice it to say I was a bit upset when I took a look at the picture (after I had removed my makeup) and saw how much of the vibrancy I had lost. To the naked eye, I actually thought it was too bold…ha! One day, I will figure out lighting.
The Shiseido cream shadow is a soft apple green, which I put on the inner two thirds of my lid with a synthetic lid brush. I used the other side of that brush and put the darker green (Maybelline) onto the outer third. Using a flat shader brush, I placed the forth shade on my lid. Using the other side of that brush, I placed the darkest shade onto my outer corner and ran it under my lash line. I went back and forth between the two shades to blend them together.
I blended out the edges using a shader brush. With a Louse Young LY38A, I blended a warm matte brown into my crease. I put the golden shimmering brown shade (#3) on the inner corner and under my lash line (inner two thirds). I placed the matte white shade under my brow bone.
