Today I'm excited to show you a look I did last Friday; I had a rare day home alone so I seized the chance to do a makeup look I've been wanting to do for a while, a dramatic green smokey eye starring Sugarpill's Midori pressed eyeshadow. I got the Sweetheart palette for my birthday over a year ago and haven't really used it, shame on me! :( I figured it was definitely time, and I really like how it turned out.
Check out pics and products below, and don't forget you can click the images to enlarge:
The above were taken in fading daylight; I also turned on an old lamp which is what gave the pictures that warm glow. I kinda like it :)
These were taken with flash, look how bright the green is:

I really like how the makeup and pictures turned out. The makeup is a tad outside my usual because the shape is more sharp than I usually do, and there's a lot of dark brown and black shading and such. I tried to keep it as soft as possible though :3
