GEMINI’S EMERALD EYES
written by: missdcal
This year I have been really pushing myself to post more creative and exciting content; every time I plan another piece of work, I am always thinking of how I can better the historic posts I have already created. So with that being said, in todays post I am taking it up another notch and sharing with you all an exciting piece of work I have been slaving away to over this last month, that being: A MAKEUP TUTORIAL.
The first tutorial I will be sharing with you lovelies, is called “Gemini’s Emerald Eyes” and it is a super sultry smokey eye look which is perfect for a winter’s night out 👏🏻 this look was totally inspired by the colour emerald which I have been totally obsessing over lately – PS for some extra fun information, after doing some research into the shade a little more I found out that it is actually a lucky gem for Gemini’s, and its totally reaching Gemini’s zodiac time (which FYI is me! coincidence? I think not!).
Dark smokey eyes can sometimes seem like the most daunting and difficult look to create but hopefully as you can see from my tutorial its really not as hard as it may initially seem to be! So if anything, I hope this tutorial helps encourage you all to step out of your comfort zone whether that being playing with darker shades or even different colours – have fun with your makeup thats the whole point of it!
Well… what are you still doing reading!? Go click the video below and enjoy the missdcal experience!
