Hey girls & boys!! Today's makeup look is inspired by two things: the first being my pet plant ("who" is in desperate need of a name & suggestions are welcome :) and the second being the wondrous, joyful colors of Lime Crime* Makeup. As most of my regular readers know, I hardly ever wear green eyeshadow, but I love to experiment and try everything -- even if it's uncomfortable or quirky -- so today is that day!

Lime Crime goodies used for this look
EYES:
- Lime Crime Eyeshadow Helper (not pictured)
- Lime Crime Palette d'Antoinette (top)
- Absinthe-Minded (matte light green) -- used for blending
- Lime Crime Chinadoll Palette
- Goldfish (bright metallic gold) -- used in the inner corner and lid
- Jade-O-Lade (rich matte jade) -- used in the outer corner, lid, crease and lower lash line
- Lotus Noir (matte smolder black) -- used in the outer "v" to deepen the gradient
- Lime Crime Uniliner in Citreuse (bright, nearly neon chartreuse) -- used to line the inner half of the top and bottom lash lines
- Lime Crime Uniliner in Quill (glossy black) -- used to line the top and bottom lash lines
- Ben Nye eyeliner in White -- used to line the waterline and highlight under the brow arch
- Ardell Accent Lashes #305
LIPS:
- Lime Crime Opaque Lipstick in Coquette (peachy pale nude) -- my favorite nude lipstick of all time!
Lime Crime eyeshadows blend like a dream and require the least amount of product for full pigmentation and opacity. This eye look was completed in about 5 minutes, mainly due to the fact that these shadows are so easy to work with. The photo above doesn't serve justice to the true saturation of the colors. I was having a hard time with my camera focusing mainly on the lashes, so the gold appears a bit washed out. For a truer representation of Goldfish eyeshadow, check out my Rasta-Maryam look & post. Also, read my review of Lime Crime's Uniliners, if you haven't done so already :))
Do you dare to be Green?
MY SKIN is airbrushed with Dinair custom foundation (though my medium range is becoming too light for my summer skin tone) and speaking of Dinair...
GOOD LUCK!
