St Patrick's Day smokey + mini tutorial By Mama Laura

I did this as another installment of my little St. Patrick's Day series. I haven't done a smokey look in a while, and it seemed like I was due for one so why not combine that with some green and make it a 2fer.

After priming my entire eyelid, I put Velvet Moss on my my lid, up to my crease

Then I lightly applied the contour color from my Sculpt & Shape into my crease

Then I blended the Velvet Moss into that
I brought this up further on the inner corner of my eyes, which I don't usually do

Then I applied Carbon to my upper lash line, and blended up a little bit

I applied the light side of my Sculpt & Shape as a highlight to my brow bown, then put Nylon on top of that as well as near my tear duct
I also used Humid on my lower lash line
