"The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mole, but true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she knows." -Audrey Hepburn

Green Smokey Eye



.Most girls love to wear a smokey eye for special occassions such as proms, weddings, and even a night out on the town. There are a few different smokey eye techniques, but today I'll be showing you (what I believe) is the simplest to do: the gradient method. We're just going from dark to light, ladies. No fancy knowledge of how to "cut the crease" or anything in this video. That will come soon though. :) But for now, let's start easy. Remember, you can adjust accordingly. So use the products you have, change up the color if you want, smoke it out more on the bottom lash line for a more dramatic effect, or don't smoke this out too much if you want a more casual look. Endless options, just have fun! Here's what I used in case you wanted to know.

Use a neutral lip shade of your choosing or if you want to be a little bit more dramatic.. for my photo I actually threw on a gloss with a hint of red in it to complement the green eyeshadow. I used Lorac Lotsa Lip Gloss in Foxy (sparingly to give a sheer look).

Here's the video! Hope you enjoy.
