St Patrick's Day Makeup Look



I did this makeup look last night so that I can post it today before I head out tonight to celebrate St Patrick's day. Like many who celebrate St Paddy, I will be wearing green. Actually, I will be wearing a lot of green. I don't think you will ever catch me wearing this much green in my life, lol, and I can probably only get away with that on St Paddy's day.
I absolutely love the lid color. I have nothing like it in my stash. It's a bright shimmery lime green with gold shimmers. I've always wanted to do a look with it and this is perfect for the occasion.








Face
  • NYX Taupe as contour
  • MAC Hang Loose Mineralize Blush (just the pink side)

Eyes
  • Urban Decay primer potion all over lids and brow bone
  • Estee Lauder Double Wear Shadow Creme Precious Jade all over lids
  • I used two shades from the Love Alpha palette. I got this palette from a store called Golden Rose. I'm not sure where else you can get it. I used the light shimmery gold on brow bone and the dark olive green on the crease.
  • I used Shadow Kinky from Pure Luxe pigments all over my lids. I applied it wet using eye drops as mixing medium.
  • I used Urban Decay Black Dog to darken the outer V to create more depth.
  • I lined the top lash line with Physicians Formula Eye Booster Ultra Black (my favorite eyeliner)
  • I lined the bottom lash line with Benefit Gem-n-Eye (on the outer), I think this one is limited edition. I bought it from a holiday set. It's a dark olive with gold shimmers.
  • On the inner bottom lash line, I used Cover Girl Liquiline Blast
  • I lined my waterline and tightlining with Sally Hansen Forever Stay Eye Pencil Deep Black.
  • I filled my brows with Revlon Brow Fantasy Dark Brown
  • Top lashes: ELF Natural Lash
  • Bottom lashes: Ardell 108

Lips
  • Since my eye makeup is bold, I decided to keep the lip neutral. I used MAC Mattene Lipstick Naked Bliss





Thanks for checking out my St Patrick's Day makeup look. I hope you enjoyed it and if you are out there partying tonight, have fun and be safe :)

  1. Just to correct you because I think it's important, it's St. Paddy, not Patty. Paddy for Patrick and Patty for Patricia.

    Back to the makeup, I like it. It looks nice!

  3. Lots of green indeed! Looks like great fun. I'll have to conjure up a green look myself for work tonight. I don't need customers reaching over to pinch me.
