HALF FACE FRIDAY - 2/21/2014 "THE GREEN MACHINE"

Half Face Friday today!  I'm calling this one "The Green Machine" because it certainly puts a spring in my step every time I wear this look.  Be creative, be unique, just be beautiful gorgeous darling!

I used a few products that are no longer available through the original company BUT that does not mean that you cannot create your own version of this look using similar colors from other companies.  I am a big believer in using what you have and just because there might be a new palette released with "so and so" does not limit me to just the new products.  So explore what you have and enjoy every moment of it.

EYES:
Step 1: Too Faced Shadow Insurance Eye Shadow Primer on the lid
Step 2: NYX Jumbo Pencil in "Milk" all over the lid and pat it out so it's an even application
Step 3: MAC "Juxt" Eye Shadow all over the lid and along the entire lash line

Step 4: Smashbox "M5" from the Full Exposure Palette in the crease
Step 5: MAC "Zestful" Extreme Dimension Eye Shadow (Limited Edition) in the crease and inner corner
Step 6: "Fins" from Sephora's Little Mermaid Palette (Limited Edition) in the outer 1/4 of the eye and carried lightly up into the outer crease

EYES CONTINUED~
Step 7: Used Urban Decay "Aura" from the Great and Powerful Oz Glinda Palette (Limited Edition) along the upper brow bone for a highlight
Step 8: Urban Decay 24/7 Eye Pencil in "Junkie" was applied to the upper and lower water line
Step 9: Applied Smashbox Full Exposure Mascara to upper and lower lashes

FACE:
Step 1: Cleaned up any eye shadow fallout
Step 2: Mixed Stila Foundation in "Light 3" and NARS Sheer Glow Foundation in "Light 2" to match my skin color
Step 3: Tarte Maracuja Creaseless Concealer "Fair" to conceal under eye circles
Step 4: Light dusting of Make Up For Ever HD Powder on top of eye concealer to prevent the product from moving around
Step 5: NARS "Laguna" Bronzer on temples, back of cheeks, and under jawline

Step 6: MAC Powder Blush in "Cream Soda" (Limited Edition) was applied to the apple of my cheeks and then remaining product was blended back toward back cheek bone
