My darlings, the holidays are fast approaching, and this year, we’re forgetting classic red (unless it’s a deep garnet red, dahling). We’re betting on a bold, mystical color, and, according to the Chinese calendar, one that brings luck and prosperity: GREEN! Yes, you heard right, emerald green, jade green, forest green… all the shades of this chromatic jewel are welcome to celebrate the end of the year in beauty and attract good vibes.
Imagine: the garlands sparkle, the champagne bubbles, and your eyes… captivate with an emerald green smoky eye worthy of a goddess. Or, a line of glittery green eyeliner that goes bling-bling like a disco ball, but with so much more chic! And why not a touch of anise green eyeshadow for a fresh and sparkling look, like a glass of champagne? The possibilities are endless, my loves. So here are some tips for adopting green with elegance and subtlety:
- Flawless complexion: With such vibrant eye makeup, we opt for a flawless, smooth, and luminous complexion. A light foundation, a little pink blush on the cheekbones, and you’re done! We avoid overly pronounced contouring; we want a fresh and natural look.
- Color harmony: Green goes wonderfully with neutral tones like beige, brown, gold, and silver. You can also dare to contrast it with a plum or deep purple for a more dramatic look. However, we avoid teal, unless you want to look like a parrot. And that, my dear, is so last season!
- The choice of texture: Play with textures! A matte eyeshadow for a sophisticated effect, an iridescent shadow for a touch of light, a glittery eyeliner for a festive look… Have fun, my dears!
- The final touch: A nude or pale pink lipstick will be perfect to balance the eye makeup. And don’t forget the mascara, of course! Long, voluminous lashes are essential for smoldering eyes.
So, ready to dare green for the holidays? With a little daring and creativity, you’ll be the queen of the evening. And who knows, maybe this touch of green will bring you luck for the new year! After all, you never know…
