Face of the (St. Patrick's) Day

It's St. Patrick's Day which means that besides the corned beef, cabbage, potatoes, and carrots in my crockpot and the Irish soda bread cooling on my stove, I decided to wear a green eye look today in celebration. As a child, I usually wore a green t-shirt or something more obvious, but as an adult, I'd rather sport something more subtle like green nail polish or green eyeshadow to ensure that I don't get pinched. :-p

Without further ado, here is my look of the day.

I'm trying my new Stila In the Garden palette (review coming soon) which features several fresh, lovely green shades. To balance out the eye, I used peachy pink colors on my cheeks and lips.

Skin:
Laura Mercier Oil-Free Tinted Moisturizer in Nude
Benefit Erase Paste in Fair under eyes
MAC Studio Finish in NC20 under eyes and on blemishes
Bare Minerals Summer Bisque to set under eye concealer
MUFE HD powder on face
Benefit Hoola to lightly contour
Tarte Amazonian Clay blush in Glisten

Eyes:
NARS smudgefree shadow base
Stila Sage eyeshadow (from In the Garden) on lid
Stila Moss eyeshadow (from In the Garden) in crease
Stila Breeze eyeshadow (from In the Garden) on inner corner and under brow bone
Bobbi Brown Ivy Shimmer gel liner on top lashline
Bobbi Brown Black Ink gel liner on waterline
Stila Moray smudgestick under bottom lashline
Revlon Grow Luscious mascara in black
Anastasia brow wiz in medium ash on brows

Lips:
Bare Minerals lip gloss in Wild Honey

Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you have a wonderful St. Patrick's Day!
