Also changed the boring top of my blog and made a banner...is now the greatest thing, buuut! I'll make it better... within the next couple of days ^^

Let the magic begings!

GREEN WAVE TUTORIAL

Ok, I wanted to try more colors, and I sound out that almost never use the green gama, so I told myself... 'why not?' and I wanted some kind of smokey eye but with a little change, so I decided to go for something funny and very dramatic, with the inner and outer corners very dark and deep.

So, ok, here we go!

** Prime your eyes, with any primer or eyeshadow base, even concealer will work perfectly ;) As the look will be full of colors and it will be very dramatic, we want every color we use is intense.

** Next take a flat brush and apply any light green eyeshadow all over your lid, it will be the base of all the green gama we will apply later; blend it a tiny bit into your crease and also apply a bit of that on your lower lashline.



** Next with any shading brush, pat a little darker yet a bit more 'grassy' shade of green, from the center of your lid to your outer corner, then blend, blend, blend... try to focus and intensify the color in your outer corner and in the center, blend the two shades of green together.


** Now with an even darker shade of green and a pencil brush, draw a line that goes from the outer corner of your lid and goes into your crease area, try to make the line thin as you go to the center of your crease, as if the line was 'vanishing' and blend those colors, focus in darken up the outer corner of your lid, and blend blend with a fluffly brush in the crease area.


** Now, with a crease brush or the same pencil brush or any other brush small enough for your crease and outer corner area, take a bit of any black eyeshadow and apply it over that dark green base and in a circle motion go up to your crease and fade it as you go to the central area, what we want is a line that almost fades away but that will be visible enough for that's what will help us later; blend the colors as much as you wish just always keeping in mind that we want this gradiant effect, with those greens and the black .
** Now is time to go to the inner part of your lid, take any pencil eye-liner and apply just a bit of that over your inner corner of the lid and go into to your lid and over the crease, then with the pencil brush, smudge that very well and draw a line that kinda connects with the one we drew earlier. Do this until you have are happy with the effect. And after this, just to smooth this, take a bit of the black eyeshadow with the tip of the pencil brush and just tap it all over the inner crner and, again, make the line kinda like litting it fading away.

** Once you have this nice effect like the two lines from the outer and inner corner of your lid kinda connect; with an angle brush take a bit of that grassy green and apply it from the center of your lower lash line and to the outer corner, next, take a bit of that darker green and apply it in the outer corner, next blend the colors together.

** Now with the same pencil eye-liner, line your waterline.

** Take your liquid liner and line your eyes drawing with a little wing  ^^. Do your brows

** With any flat brush take a bit of any eyeshadow similar and a bit lighter than your skin and highlight the area under your brows, to get rid of any harsh edges and to blen the colors better in that area.  And apply your fave mascara.

** Now, the lips; I went for sth like a berry color, kinda hot pink but going to the purple side, I used the Beauty Treats lipstick in 'Baby Berry' and to give it a nice shinny touch, I used the Jafra's Ultrashine Gloss in 'Praline' which is a brwn-red-ish gloss, really lovely.


** Contour and pply any soft pink blush.

And it's done!!! :D

Hope you liked this tutorial, and follow! ;)

Love,
Dana xx
