Green eyes with lashes

Hi again girls! I've had SUCH an exhausting week! Today I wanted to do dramatic green eyes with fake lashes, and it turned out okay. I used the same foundation, blush (I think I'm running out of both), powder, contouring powder, etc. as I have been for the last few weeks. For my eyes, I did the liquid liner on the lid thing I've been doing lately, with the Covergirl black eyeshadow on top as usual. Then I used Golder's Green MAC pigment above it. I put Covergirl Sun Sparkle above it as a highlight, since a few of you suggested a highlight last time and I didn't want to look too slutty. I used my normal mascara, pencil liner and brow pencil, but tried extra hard to fill in my brows better. Then it was time for (*ominous music*) fake lashes. I used my Sephora lashes since I like how long they are. They ruined the shadow a little, but hopefully not too much. I wish I were better at applying them. But they DID stay on all day, even at the grocery store! Then I used my MAC lipliner again and used Maybelline Wetshine in peachy keen along with my standard lipgloss. Oh, and below my eyes I applied the black eyeshadow with a flat, thin-edged brush, then some Golder's Green below that. My hair would NOT straighten, no matter what I did.

Here's the best closeup that came out. It's very blurry.

Ignore the glue, the lashes would have popped off if I dared try to remove it

As always, I'd love to hear critiques and suggestions. I'm a bit worried the black shadow wasn't used enough on the outer corner, and maybe I should have lined the inner corner. Would have helped it be more dramatic. But besides that, I dunno.

*HUGS*

love it!! the only thing that i would suggest would be to maybe be careful...the black shadow could take over the look. other than that, it is beautieous.

Love this! First of all, I think the color combo is awesome. The green eye is amazing, and I always love peachy lips. The eyelashes make a HUGE difference too!

Amazing once again! The green shadow looks great with your eye color and I really like that you used a highlight!

Great job! It's hard to get the glue right on the lashes but I have the best luck using tiny little dots of glue all along the lashes - a realllly little bit. Then it doesn't squish out as much! It's still damn near impossible though hahah.

i love it! the green makes your eyes glow and as MissMarley said, definitely try some more green looks, it's really flattering for your skintone & eyes.

on a completely different note, i've seen a few of your FOTDs and you look so happy and confident in this and your more recent ones as opposed to the first few.. keep up the good work, you're looking awesome.

What do you use to try straighten your hair? I would say GHD straighteners Are THE BOMB, but not sure if they're sold in the US? Even Remington wet-to-straight straighteners are brilliant....totally recommend using these to straighten your hair
