STYLE BY MELI

Although I pretty much live in black eye liner, I also really love to experiment with colored eye liners, specifically on the bottom.  In this look, I was using a mint green pencil eye liner on the bottom.     

How to wear this trend:

-  First, I rimmed the bottom with MAC’s “Minted” kohl pencil and then intensified it a little more but adding MAC “Graphblack” technakohl pencil.  With a smokey look, I still want there to be black liner, but in this case wanted to throw in an accent color.

[Beauty Confession] - I almost always pair green eye makeup with pink lips, but wanted to be more experimental, so I choose a light bright peach color.  I definitely like the outcome because the lips are fairly neutral to contrast the darker eye makeup, but it still pops.

-  In terms of the cheek color, I also chose to stick with the peachy/coral family.  I used MAC’s “My Highland Honey” which I have to say is my all time favorite MAC blush that came out from a previous holiday collection (hence discontinued).  I use this blush quite frequently because it brightens up my face and warms up my skin beautifully!

A closer look at the actual eye makeup. It's a smokey look with a shimmery deep green to compliment the mint green liner.

[Does anyone experiment with colored eye liners, if so, what are your favorites?]
