I love green eyeshadows. Somehow, they look amazing on girls with dark or brown eyes and make your eyes really stand out. Be careful though, that you don’t do a bright flourescent green from your lashline right up to your brow or you’d look like someone turned up the humidity for moss to grow!<\/p>\n
I’ve noticed that many girls locally don’t do a lot of colour on their faces or eyes. I am possibly quite lucky in my job as I can wear practically anything or colour I want. However, to me, its a mistaken conception that colours are taboo at the workplace (unless there’s a circular saying so). You don’t need to use very bright colours all the time. Sometimes, just a hint of colour or shimmer is enough to brighten up the face.<\/p>\n
Anyway, speaking of brightening up faces, I had a very late night yesterday due to work. I also had very little sleep. Combine the two, and what you get are sensitive red lids. As I peered into the mirror this morning, I remembered that green counteracts redness on the skin. So, I opened up my stash and decided to do a green shadow to see if it’ll work. Surprise, surprise! It did! My eyes looked less red and puffy and I looked a bit more awake.<\/p>\n
These were the colours I used – Clover (emerald green – right most middle) and Limbo Lime (lime green – right most bottom) both by Milani Cosmetics. These aren’t available here in Malaysia and come from the USA.<\/p>\n
