I’ve been captivated by the current ads for Maybelline Smokey Eyes. The Emerald Smokey Eye ad was simply gorgeous, so I thought I would use some colors I already have to get a similar look.

Green is always a good color with my eyes, whether teals, avocado, or khaki. And I hadn’t tried these samples from Meow yet.

Eyes:
Base: MAC Luna, then Meow
Lids: Meow Leona H ScandalEyes, sage green –brighter avocado
Crease and drylined top and bottom: Sourpuss Purrl IdealEyes, olive green with bronze shimmer — looks like deeper avocado
Tightlined: MAC blackgraph with earthline on the bottom

Lips: All Arbonne
Illusion Lipstick + Gleam Prep and Plump — then lined with Nice to give it definition

What do you think?
I thought this turned out well. It’s a lovely neutral, not as vibrant as the Maybelline quad which I decided to buy.

Here’s what it looks like:

Target’s prices are better than Walgreen’s, but Target did not have the Emerald quad.
