BEAUTY ALERT: I’ve often talked about how difficult it can be to pull off colored eyelashes. BUT I saw this wonderful example of how it is done and thus all my fears drifted away. Allow me to break down the keys to this art:

Exhibit A) The skin is very simple. Just some foundation and bronzer. Nothing crazy. No dramatic blush or anything distracting from our main focus.

Exhibit B) The lips are almost bare. I know for the sake of a photo shoot they put pink on them, but they’re not a pop of color or anything. They’re a very natural color.

and finally, Exhibit C) The eyes the only part of the whole that we need to draw focus to. They’re so bright and full of life. They’re freakin’ neon green!!! What says “pop” more than neon green. The eyelashes themselves look to be teal/ green color. I think you can pull off any color (i’ve seen orange mascara before- awesome!) as long as you pair it with a color that is in the same family (ex: blue + green, orange + red or yellow, purple + pink), you know where I’m getting at.

It’s something fun to play with. Go grab a bunch of different mascaras and play. If you’re nervous, start off with something simple like blue mascara with a light dose of blue eyeshadow. Then get a little more daring next time ;]
