Saturday is Saint Patrick's Day!!

Break out the greens ladies! St Patrick's Day is heading this way.

Green can appear prominent, so limit the amount of additional color on your face. A tinted moisturizer will look better than a full face bronzer.  

Selecting a shadow on the bluer side of green will work great for brown eyes. Hazel colored eyes should choose a yellow-based green.

If you have green eyes, a contrasting green color will accent your eyes rather than camouflage them. Choose dark olive shadows for light green eyes and select something in the jade range for deeper green eyes.

Deep blue eyes will work perfectly with a dark green shade while lighter blue eyes should focus on mossy green shadows.

Accent green eye shadows with creams and ivory or for a fun night on the town, blend in a touch of gold shimmer.

Try using a gold liner smudged along the lash line, top and bottom, then topped off with the green eyeshadow, darker on the top lash line and a lighter shade on the bottom. This will make the eyes appear open and bright.

For best results, pair your green shadows with a nude lip or opt for a gold luster gloss, keeping the focus on your eyes.

Using a good, solid primer on the eyelid will keep creasing at a minimum and provide long-lasting staying power.

False lashes will heighten the drama of your eyes or just apply two coats of rich black mascara.

Gently sweep a soft blush on the apples of your cheeks for just a spot of color. Avoid blush that has a shimmer to it, otherwise it will compete with your eyes.
