Do you remember wondergrass and eyepopping eyeshadows from the
C-shock collection?
Third Row
Eyepopping is the "lime green" e/s
and wondergrass is ..ahem.. green..lol
Both are beautiful eyeshadows but I spend more time admiring them than wearing them because...they are sooo bright.
I was inspired by a look created by AllmEyene and I was going to use 3 greens eyeshadows precisely wondergrass, eyepopping and somptous olive or juxt.
I ended up using mostly wondergrass and a little bit of eyepopping on the crease ...
So, How do you wear bright greens? Please share.
The pressed powder, eyebrow pencil and concealer are the same as previous looks but this time I used Stila Lash visor mascara.
I used this stila brush to blend the eyeshadows
I also applied a little bit of flip eyeshadow as a brow highlighter
For cheeks, please grab your purse and run to the nearest MAC to get this beauty:
This is Warm Blend MSF!!! Isn't it so pretty?
Petticoat was my favorite but this....sigh.....simply beautiful!
Thank you Seymone for insisting that I should get it!!
It gives such a beautiful glow.....especially when the sunlight hits your face
For lips
C-thru and 80% lipliner. C-thru is one of my favorite lipglosses!
I usually wear it with Vino or Chestnut.
Voila :)

Very Pretty look! Green looks gorgeous on you
It's so gorgeous! I am inspired to try green now.
Looking good girl & warm blend is just glowing in the car photo. Lets see, usually when I wear green I go all out w/ different shades of green. I've only done 1 look where I put the green in 1 place.
thank you ladies!!! :)
@Allmeyene: I am taking notes! I'll practice until I get it right :)
Absolutely beautiful, I love to see dark skinned sistas exploring colors... and not the basics. I will go to Mac tomorrow and get that msf it is gorgeous. I swatched it but didn't get it now I gotta go back.
