Looks: Green Blue Sea

Hey ladies,

today I want to show you a green and blue look I did a few days ago using two of my favourite Sleek products: the Acid palette and their eyeshadow pigment in Jet Set. Here it is:

greenblue01

greenblue02

greenblue03

Products used:
- Urban Decay Primer Potion
- Barry M Dazzle Dust #15 Aqua
- Sleek Eye Dust Pigment in Jet Set
- Sleek Acid palette (blue)
- Barry M Dazzle Dust #65 green iridescent
- Sleek Original palette (green)
- L’Oreal Telescopic Explosion mascara

Directions:
Apply Urban Decay Primer Potion all over lid as a base.
Apply an aqua shade (I used Bary M Dazzle Dust #15 aqua) on the crease.
Using MAC 219 pencil brush apply a light green shade ( I used Sleek pigment in Jet Set) on the crease, just above the lid but under the aqua shade you just applied. Blend the colors together.
With an eyeshadow brush, sweep a blue shade (I used the darker blue in the Sleek Acid palette) on the lid and wing the color out a bit. Using MAC 219 pencil brush apply the same color on the lower lashline.
Darken the outer corner using a darker shade of green.
Apply a sheer white shade (I used Bary M Dazzle Dust #65 in green iridescent) on the browbone to highlight.
Finish off with mascara.

The colors transcend from one to the other really well! I think it’d pop even more if you added a thin line of black liquid liner :)

Dao: thanks! This is one of my fave combos, the colors go so well together.

Connie: thanks you! I think you’re right about the eyeliner, it would probably make it look better :) I should start wearing it more often too.

This is a great look with Sleek. I was wondering how their pigments would look. Thank you

I tried a similar combo of colors a few days ago, but as always, the eye makeup which I do for myself is always quite subtle. Will post it up soon. :)

This look is very pretty!

Anastacia: glad you like it :)

Halifax: you’re welcome. I love Sleek pigments. The color I have is a light green but the color payoff is really good. It’s also very easy to blend.

Vonvon: thanks. Can’t wait to see your look :)
