Watermelon Eyes

Today's look brought to you by the sticky aftermath of a favorite summer treat -- watermelon. I actually had to try this look twice. I did it earlier this morning and thanks to my LOVELY head cold most of my shadow was streaked from tears. So I took a Sudafed and gave it a second go. It turned out much prettier the second time around and the Sudafed kept me from sneezing up a storm and ruining the look.

Colors Used:

• Urban Decay Primer Potion: All over lid and brow bone area.


• M·A·C Shadestick in Beige-ing (shimmery, subtle beige): all over lid.


• Revlon Matte Eyeshadow in Lucious Lime (pale matte lime): inner corner of lid on top of Beige-ing. (The lighter Revlon matte shades go on easier using a dense brush. More coverage and less fall out!)


• Ulta Brand Eyeshadow single in Meadow (medium kelly green with very subtle shimmer): outer corner of lid on top of Beige-ing, blended with Lucious Lime and into the crease.


• LA Colors Palette in Eye Candy (shimmery bubblegum pink): light dusting as a brow bone highlight.


• Revlon Matte Eyeshadow in Pink Innocence (matte baby pink): used over top of LA Colors pink to subdue the shimmer and mute the pink a bit.


• Bare Minerals Glimmer in Wicked (smokey green): used wet with homemade mixing medium as a top liner.


• L'Oreal HiP Eyeshadow Duo in Brazen (pink side): used wet with homemade mixing medium as a liner for lower lashline.


• Prestige Lash Matrix Mascara in Black.


• Urban Decay Brow Box in Brown Sugar.


• Jane Cosmetics Blushing Blush in Petal.


• L'Oreal HiP Presso Lip Color in Swanky.
