Gulfstream ideas?!?

[pandaction82]

I recently bought a Gulfstream dupe from Coastal Scents. However, whenever I try to use it, I end up looking like a freaking nitemare clown. What is the best way to use greens, especially my Gulfstream. I have blue eyes and glasses, and also have blue black hair (if that helps the process).

I love to pair greens with silvers and golds on the lid with the green in the crease. Have you tried using Gulfstream as a liner? That would be super pretty and stand out from behind your glasses.

use it with any blue/green or other teals. I bought Gulf Stream from Cool Heat last year and this is my fave combo with it:

Warm Chill on lid
Gulf Stream in the crease and blended up
Blue flame in the crease
Climate Blue in outer v and lower lashline
Solar white to highlight

The key is to blend these colours until they look seamless

Gulfstream looks stunning on the lid with woodwinked in the crease

Gulfstream looks great in the crease with seafoam green on the lid. You can also add a bluish green such as Steamy or Shimmermoss, or even something like Golden Olive, in the crease.
GS also goes well with Club in the crease.
Another great combo is:
Tan on the lid, Woodwinked on the inner lid, Sumptuous Olive on the middle part of the lid, GS in the outer lid and crease, All That Glitters to blend above the crease and a black pencil on the lower lashline.

i really liked Gulf Stream paired with MUFE's no.92, and a blue color like Cool Heat. i've also wanted to try Gulf Stream + Blue Brown pigment! that could be interesting..

i really believe it's a versatile color though! it can go really bright or a really nice bit of color with neutrals, have fun!

Wow those all seem like great ideas. I dont have any of the colors you mentioned, per se, but I'm sure I can find some great dupes in my collection.

Thanks!!!

I love the idea of Gulf Stream with Cool Heat - blended properly that could be gorgeous! Thanks for the great idea!
