Kicks Inspired Makeup: Green & Black Creative Recreation








Even though I do plenty of colorful eyeshadow combos just for fun, here's one that I've actually worn out. I wore this one to my friend's birthday earlier this year.
Since it was a special occasion, of course I had to do a sneaker match-up! I paired this look with these green and black Galow Highs. My technique has definitely improved since, due to capturing (and critiquing) the looks on my camera, so here's the amplified version of my green and black smokey eye!

Product breakdown:
-Rimmel Eyebrow Pencil, Black brown
-Shiseido Eyebrow Compact, Deep brown
-Urban Decay Primer Potion to prime
-Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy (used to intensify green)
-Urban Decay Graffiti (lid color)
-Urban Decay Zero (outer V & crease)
-Sleek Acid Palette (black to deepen outer V & crease)
-Wet n Wild Blue Had  Me At Hello (uppermost left color for browbone and inner corner highlight)
-MAC Fluidline, Blacktrack
-Maybelline Waterproof Lash Stiletto Voluptuous, Very black

I like how it looks with Graffiti but I wonder how it would look Peace. You're blending skills are amazing, I don't think my eye makeup would look as great as yours with macro.
