Holiday Smokey Eye – Tutorial

This is one of those looks where you arrive at the Holiday party slaying like you spent some serious time on that smokey eye but in reality, you blended three colors and were off to grab your LBD. The shadow I used on the lid is a really pretty ColourPop Super Shock Shadow in the shade Shameless. The base is a dark emerald green (so dark that it almost looks black) but what makes it festive for the Holidays is the pretty reflective green glitters. I bumped up the look by adding a Pigment by MAC in the shade Golden Green on the center of the lid. I’ve been into not wearing foundation lately so I used the same concealer that I used under my eyes to spot conceal. Below is a full tutorial on the look as well as the exact products and brushes used.
