FOTD Friday: Goin’ green on the lids….
So the other day something tragic happened. I was making my green smoothie…like I do every evening for the following day. This particular smoothie was probably one of the best I had ever made (that’s my Drake remix, haha!). It was chock full of kale and spinach with a sweet amount of coconut and almond milk. I tossed in some apple pieces, a banana, strawberries, pineapple and topped it off with cinnamon. It was beyond tasty.
So tasty that I guess the floor wanted try some too (haha, love that Mama Soybean).
But how beautifully tragic is that spill? The formation is kinda awesome. And it is a gorgeous shade of green. It was so pretty that my silly self had to take a picture of it and tweet it. Sometimes you really have to find beauty in….odd circumstances. Like in a green smoothie committing drinkicide.
Anyway….it inspired me to play around with some greens. So I did!!
I used MAC’s Humid for the outer-V.
That was one of my FIRST eye shadows. Humid holds a special place en mi corazon. I was going for a pretty subtle green eye. Didn’t want anything to POW, ya know? And I wanted plain cheeks with a glossy brown lip.
But if you look closer, I made a ton of application mistakes while in a hurry. Experimenting before work is never a good idea. But y’all know I don’t care. Posting my mistakes is kinda fun…..kinda.

1. That is the most fantabulous drinkicide shot eva! And it is a beautiful shade of green.
2. You can wear some colors! I now have green envy.
3. Have a good weekend!
Loving the green! Seeing you wearing it so beautifully, I think I should start paying attention to my greens too
I love greens and they look gorgeous on you!
That spill looks like the color of OPI greenwich Village. At first glance, I thought you spilled a polish! I think I might have to put on that color when I get home now! Anyway, very pretty eyeshadow, as always!
HUMID! i have that, too. it's pretty much my only green shadow. the other is part of the barbie loves stila pallette i got for my birthday. i need to start using humid more often.
Oh I love humid too and it was one of my first MAC e/s. You just made me crave a smoothie. It looks deelish, even on the floor. lol
I love your makeup with the matching green top!!!
adorable
Mmmm delish!!! Absolutely!
Gone head and work your undercover Irish'ness!
Geeeettttt itttttt!!!
Green drink, green shadow, and green shirt! I never was into green but it came out FAB! Good for you getting creative. I love when inspiration comes to life in my make-up or nails.
Mmm that drink sounds so healthy and delicious! And I always love a good green eyeshadow! Nice.:)
Purdy!! I had Humid until I had a bad depotting accident
…one day I'm going to replace it…
I absolutely love Green eyeshadow.
nice shades of green
Ohhhh, poor green smoothie… that's sad.
Jeez I have to get my eyes checked… again!! the spill looked like green nailpolish and I wasn´t looking at the whole e/s pan photo and I thought you made green cupcakes/muffins because that´s what it looked like for me
And the green looks so good on you!
Thank you, darlings!!
You have the cutest brightest smile! Aww
