I don’t think I’ve done three days of makeup in quite awhile! For some reason, the upper “liner” is 1) not very prominent, 2) looks separated from my lash line even though when I applied, it looked fine. Don’t you hate when you’re all good to go, then you upload photos, and you’re like, “Oh, oops!” I had a totally different vision for the upper liner (I wanted something dark but glimmering with gold flecks), so maybe it was all the stuff I did to it that made it kind of wonky in the end, LOL.
Thanks for all the encouragement, I always appreciate it :) It really does inspire me!
I used Emerald Green pigment all over lid, Goldmine eyeshadow on inner crease, Wondergrass eyeshadow on lid, Humid eyeshadow on middle of lid, Carbon eyeshadow on outer lid and crease, Goldmine eyeshadow above crease, Golden Lemon pigment dusted all over lid (then gently swished over the lid, going back and intensifying the original colors of Wondergrass & Humid), Nylon eyeshadow on brow bone to highlight, Femme Noir eyeshadow along upper lash line, Blitzed glitter liner along upper lash line, Carbon eyeshadow along upper lash line, Feline kohl power on lower waterline/lash line, Goldmine eyeshadow on inner tearduct and inner lower lash line, Humid eyeshadow on outer lower lash line, and Plushblack plushlash mascara on lashes (top and bottom). I wore Other Worldly blush with Daisydust beauty powder on cheeks. I had Brew lipstick with Pink Grapefruit lipglass dusted with Reflects Bronze glitter on lips.

One of my favourite looks EVER on you! You look smashing! Nice work! :D

Totally awesome Christine! I’m def going to try to dup this one! The dark green eye and coral lip look awesome!
Christine
Friday, April 4, 2008
Thanks, Shefali! I hope you do — be sure to report back with the results ;)

I’m such a sucker for a smokey eye! This is beautiful!
Teneasha
Friday, April 4, 2008
OMG…That has to be the hottest smokey eye I’ve ever seen. Green is my favorite color of the moment, it goes so well with every skin tone. I’m going to try this look when I get home.
Teneasha (VB)
Christine
Friday, April 4, 2008
Oh, wow! Thank you so very much Teneasha :) I’m very flattered!
Leigh
Friday, April 4, 2008
Ooo I love it!
Christine
Friday, April 4, 2008
Thanks, Leigh!
Chloe
Friday, April 4, 2008
I agree with Emma and Teneasha, this is an amazing look on you! I absolutely love its “hotness” factor! Thanks!!!
Christine
Friday, April 4, 2008
lol, the hotness factor!
Well, if it hits that, I’m set. Thanks, Chloe!
Erin
Friday, April 4, 2008
I’m telling ya, those gold/green combos are so brilliant on olive peeps. Gorgeous!
Christine
Friday, April 4, 2008
It’s no wonder why I’m drawn to greens ;)
kat
Friday, April 4, 2008
i love this look. it’s very well put together. you look amazing!
Christine
Friday, April 4, 2008
Thank you so much, Kat! :)
Crystal
Friday, April 4, 2008
That is amazing! Ive been on a huge green kick recently and i love this one.. :)!
Christine
Friday, April 4, 2008
Thanks, Crystal! What’s your favorite green look lately?
Vanessa
Friday, April 4, 2008
I love it! Really bring out your beautiful eyes, AND you used all my favorite colors! I love “Emerald Green” pigment and “Wondergrass” e/s!
Christine
Friday, April 4, 2008
Thanks, Vanessa! Emerald Green is sooo pretty. I wish they had an eyeshadow that color :(
francesca
Friday, April 4, 2008
Wow, Christine, you’re gorgeous!! We share the same eye colour, but I’ve always been afraid of greens. I only have Greensmoke, which is almost grey. Do you think I could try and copy your look?
Christine
Friday, April 4, 2008
You’re afraid of greens?!! Hold my hand, and I’ll take you to green paradise :)
Greensmoke is a really pretty color, I like it for when I want to do a really smoky and deep olive eye. It looks really great with Sumptuous Olive. It’s going to be too dark to replace a color like Wondergrass, so I don’t know if it would really work to give you the same effect. It’d be fine as a replacement for the crease area (like Femme Noir).
Thank you!
Michelle
Friday, April 4, 2008
Definitely one of my favorites you’ve ever done! And it suits you so beautifully!
Christine
Saturday, April 5, 2008
Thank you so much, Michelle!
MariahGem
Friday, April 4, 2008
Gorgeous! I totally love it! It’s very sophisticated!
Christine
Saturday, April 5, 2008
Thanks, MariahGem :)
Vera
Friday, April 4, 2008
This is an amazing look on you. It gives me an idea of how to use Humid. I’ve had it for a few years, but haven’t used it much. hehe Not only is your makeup flawless, your hair is the perfect finishing touch for the look. Fantabulous job!
Christine
Saturday, April 5, 2008
Thanks, Vera! Wow, I LOVE Humid :D It is sooo pigmented, and it is just a great color. You should definitely use it more often!
teresa
Friday, April 4, 2008
WOW! I love it! Especially since it’s green, my favorite color!
Christine
Saturday, April 5, 2008
Thank you, Teresa!
ellie
Friday, April 4, 2008
this is beautiful! tutorial please!..or would it take too long since there are so many colors? haha
Christine
Saturday, April 5, 2008
Thanks, Ellie! I don’t know if I’ll be able to set aside enough time to do a tutorial for this, just because there are a butt load of steps, LOL. I will put it on my list of possible tutorials to do, though :)
rosa
Friday, April 4, 2008
Gorgeous! I love this look… did you change the way you shaped the shadow around your eyes? it looks reallyyy different in the full face view (in a good way–dramatic!)
Christine
Saturday, April 5, 2008
Thanks, Rosa! A little bit, maybe? I am not really sure, lol!
amy
Friday, April 4, 2008
WOW.. this one looks amazing!!!
quick question.. do you curl your eyelashes before or after putting on plushblack mascara? i curl mines before and they still seem to bring the curl down =(
Christine
Saturday, April 5, 2008
Thanks, Amy!
I curl before or after – whenever I remember, IF I remember (9/10 I don’t remember, lol). But you are supposed to do it before, even though I’ve always found it’s more effective post-mascara :(
Skyler
Friday, April 4, 2008
Holy CRAP! This is AMAZING. I love the colours, I love the lip colour, and I love the look itself on YOU. Greens really bring out your eyes. This seems product-heavy and I know it’ll take a while to apply, but I’m definitely going to try this tomorrow since I actually have everything. :D I heart greens.
Christine
Saturday, April 5, 2008
Thank you, Skyler!! I love that you have everything! I hope you do it :) I know it’ll look amazinggg on you!
Sash
Friday, April 4, 2008
I’m in love!<3 I think I might try this!=)
Christine
Saturday, April 5, 2008
Aww :D I hope you get a chance to, Sash!
Cish
Friday, April 4, 2008
wow. we share the eye color, hair color and somewhat even the skin color. I’ve never tried a green smokey eye, but after seeing it on you I definitely gotta try!
wow again. and thanks! :)
Christine
Saturday, April 5, 2008
Oh, that’s so great, Cish! I know it’s always easier to relate to someone who’s similar in coloring :)
Thank you!
Clini-Kew
Friday, April 4, 2008
Christine, Christine!
I absolutely LOVE this look on you! I wore a smokey green eye the other day and got mucho compliments on it. I need to do it again but this time use Goldmine like you have here! Thanks for the inspiration!
Christine
Saturday, April 5, 2008
Thank you, Clini-Kew! I am so glad you liked this – isn’t the green smoky eye such a great look?!
Erin
Friday, April 4, 2008
This is gorgeous Christine!!!! And the lips look very similar to how mine look with Lollipop Loving and Sock Hop with those green reflects from the lipstick.
Christine
Saturday, April 5, 2008
Thanks, Erin!
Interesting – I haven’t tried Lollipop Loving myself, but good to know I can pass then, lol.
Stephanie D
Friday, April 4, 2008
I Love it! It looks really good with your eyes and hair! Beautiful.
Christine
Saturday, April 5, 2008
Thank you so very much, Stephanie D! :D
natasha
Friday, April 4, 2008
green smokey eye is my fave way to wear my green e/s. adding goldmine is such a great idea. i sometimes use amberlights but goldmine is a better combi. thanks for sharing : )
Christine
Saturday, April 5, 2008
Me too, Natasha :) I really loved the Goldmine in it when it was all done.
Thanks!
Elaine
Friday, April 4, 2008
Totally beautiful, you really suit green….I am always to afraid to try greens, but perhaps I should (I have browny/hazely eyes) You finished the look of perfectly with that lipcolour too…very pretty indeed
Christine
Saturday, April 5, 2008
Thank you, Elaine! Ohh, you should :) I have brown/hazel eyes, so you could totally rock it!!
Amy
Friday, April 4, 2008
OOOH, I LOVE this look!!! I’m a big fan of using greens in the summer (too pale in the winter!). And I just adore the coral lipstick/blush combo on you!! You should wear corals more often!! Very very flattering!!!!!!!!!
Christine
Saturday, April 5, 2008
Thank you so much, Amy! I’m happy to hear you enjoyed it :)
I adore greens, mostly because they work well with my skin tone and everything.
Charlene
Friday, April 4, 2008
YES this is definetly my fave!!!! I LOVE THIS ON U!
Christine
Saturday, April 5, 2008
Thanks again, Charlene!
Charlene
Friday, April 4, 2008
whatever inspiration you got this week…i hope u get it more often :) GREAT looks Christine!!
Christine
Saturday, April 5, 2008
lol, me too, Charlene! me too :)
Theresa
Friday, April 4, 2008
I am currently going through a smoky eye period and what better timing than to have you include colours like gold and green! For the life of me, I never would have thought that Goldmine or Wondergrass for that matter, could be used to combine to create a smoky gold-green look!!!
Am so freaking excited to try this look coz (except for the pigments and two es – Nylon and Femme Noir), I happen to own all the other colours you used ;)
And oh, did I mention that you look super duper gorgeous too?
Christine
Saturday, April 5, 2008
So glad to have shown you the possibilities that Goldmine & Greens have together :D
Nylon & Femme Noir aren’t essential to the look, so you’re all set to go. Let me know how it works out!
Thank you, Theresa!
bec
Friday, April 4, 2008
that look is a new definition for the word SEXY

Christine
Saturday, April 5, 2008
Thanks, Allysha! I’ll try to!

Nell
Friday, April 4, 2008
You are an artist, it looks wonderful, green really suits you.
I´d never be able to pull that off *makes sad face*.
Christine
Saturday, April 5, 2008
Aw, thank you so much, Nell! That is really sweet of you to say.
Now, on the other hand, I think you could definitely pull it off!

Marsadie
Saturday, April 5, 2008
I LOVE this look on you! Envy green is sexy against your skintone. Great color picks!
Christine
Saturday, April 5, 2008
Thankyou, Marsadie! I better wear greens more often, then ;)
Tina
Saturday, April 5, 2008
Those lashes are the longest I’ve seen on you! It must be an awesome mascara! Also the green colours really go well with your eye colour. I’ve never seen a green smokey eye this good!
Christine
Saturday, April 5, 2008
I love Plushlash! :)
Thank you!
Alisha

Hi Christine!
This looks gorgeous on you. Dark/smokey eyes suit you very well :)
Christine
Sunday, April 6, 2008
Thank you, Tonee :)
K
Saturday, April 5, 2008
You look HOT! You can really pull off a smokey eye. I actually think it’s good that the upper liner isn’t too prominent – your mascara is SO flawless in this set of photos and it stands out better without dark liner covering it up.
Christine
Sunday, April 6, 2008
Thanks, K! I’m trying harder to be more “precise” with my mascara, LOL. Although my tube is on its last leg, so I’ll need to replace it soon.
Monique
Saturday, April 5, 2008
the best look ever on you!!
Christine
Sunday, April 6, 2008
Thanks, Monique!
JennBee
Saturday, April 5, 2008
Absolutely gorgeous!! You look amazing with greens!
I can’t believe your awesome photos, too… I read through your photo help post and still could never get mine to look like that. You have the eyes of a model, naturally! So pretty. :)
Christine
Sunday, April 6, 2008
Thank you, JennBee! I’m glad you liked it!
Aw, just practice. Seriously, go out and take a walk and take close-ups of everything until you get it down pat!
Angi
Saturday, April 5, 2008
Wow, this makes your eyes the most beautiful golden brown. I now know exactly what it means when someone says “that shadow color makes your eyes pop”. It is really lovely on you
Christine
Sunday, April 6, 2008
Thank you so much! I guess there’s some truth to green shadows for brown eyes!
Pia
Saturday, April 5, 2008
christine-you look totally fantabulous. I love green and have put humid on my must-buy list.
btw, how different is smolder, ebony, graphblack and feline in terms of fierceness? mac here doesn’t carry feline.
Christine
Sunday, April 6, 2008
Thanks, Pia! I adoreee Humid, such a pretty and intense shadow.
Feline is the darkest IMO, but Graphblack is pretty close.
LUC1
Saturday, April 5, 2008
HEY GIRL, I THINK I AM MORE FASCINATED BY THE WAY YOUR EYEBALL LOOKS AND HOW GREAT YOUR CAMERA TAKES A GOOD PICTURE.YOU CAN SEE EVERY LITTLE DETAIL IN YOUR EYE!
Christine

LOL, well thank you!
GG
Sunday, April 6, 2008
You look insanely gorgeous. This is your BEST, BEST look so far. I love your light peachy lips with the vivid green and the yellow gold all around only serves to bring out the green. LOVE ALL YOUR WORK!
Sovann
Sunday, April 6, 2008

That’s really pretty! And I’m not even a big fan of Greens. Kudos.
Christine
Friday, April 11, 2008
Thanks, Dawn! Greens are actually some of my favorite colors to work with!
Ariele
Monday, April 7, 2008
I love it! Greens really do look awesome on you :)

Thanks, Ariele! :)
Connie
Monday, April 7, 2008
That’s an excellent look! I used to wear alot of green and actually I’m still very much attracted to green but I find that I’m seldom doing green looks now. I find it hard to find really good green colors lately. Oh, I miss greens so much!
Christine
Friday, April 11, 2008
Thanks, Connie1 I love greens myself and used to do them a lot, too. Now not as often, but still often enough :)
ilovecheese

Thank you so much, hun! :)
Kharina
Thursday, April 10, 2008
Christine,
Nice look here! I am now starting to really *LOVE* greens. Can’t wait for new green shades to come out. I have a question about the glosses you wear. On average, how long do they last you before you see that you may need to re-apply? And since I am a newbie with MAC, do these glosses ever chap your lips? I find that glosses of other brands do, so I’m just curious. Thanks ;)
Christine
Friday, April 11, 2008
Thanks, Kharina! I’m all about greens, too :)
I can have my lip combo last as long as 8 hours if I don’t eat or drink. If I happen to drink, it’s usually four hours. If I eat, not so much then!
But no, I don’t find that MAC glosses chap my lips at all!
christy
Sunday, April 13, 2008
that reminds me of the colors or camo! haha, very cool! are most of your looks made with mixing medium? i always do mine dry but im seriously considering picking up some glycerin so i can do vibrant looks too!
Christine
Monday, April 14, 2008
lol! Yes, most of them are, just because I use pigments as my base, so I use the mixing medium with the pigments!
julie
Thursday, April 17, 2008
would forest green pigment work as good as emerald green? Thank so much!! By the way you ROCK!! your make up looks awesome I hope I can get a hold of some of these colors( wondergrass,golden lemon,emerald green) I am dying to try this look!!! If you ever get a chance to do a tutorial I would love to see it!
Christine
Thursday, April 17, 2008
Hey Julie, I think it would for this :) Wondergrass is really bright so it’ll compensate!
julie
Thursday, April 17, 2008
I guess I will have to go see how I can buy that color and some of the others Thanks!!
ayat
Thursday, April 17, 2008
OMG this is one of my absolute favourites! just gorgeous!
Christine

Thanks so much Ayat!!
Teresa
Saturday, April 19, 2008
The green smokey eye is absolutely stunning on you. As others have mentioned, this is also one of my favorite looks for you – it “REALLY” makes your brown eyes pop. You’ve inspired me to try this look as well!!!
Christine
Saturday, April 19, 2008
Thank you so much, Teresa!! :) Let me know how you like the look on yourself!
Olivia
Saturday, April 19, 2008
You look amazing, so much I would like to copy this style for prom. Are all the colors MAC products? If I don’t have these, can I substitute them for some other brand?
XOXO
Christine
Monday, April 21, 2008
Hey Olivia! Yes, everything is by MAC, but you can totally substitute with another brand. It really is just gold, bright medium green, and black, so any brand will work.
Thanks!
danielle
Tuesday, April 22, 2008
i LOVE the green smoky look! i do it all the time. the mac products are so good but i’m experimenting with another cosmetic brand, Urban Decay. and i love the Maui Wowie e/s.
you look fabulous with the smokey green look.
Christine

Me too, Danielle! UD has great green shadows!
Thanks!

omg, i can’t believe i almost missed this look, i love it. I’m so hooked on green eyeshadow right now, and this is absolutely the best combo ever! I need coral lips/blush asap! let me re-read this and get the names of the products to make this happen (or die trying!!!lol!!!!)
*p.s. love the pix w/ your hair down.
