Blast From the Past: A Blue & Green Look from 2006

Site News

It’s fun to go back in time and look at how you’ve improved. One thing I really like about looking at looks I did a long time ago is to see what color combinations I used. Sometimes I still find some that I like! 🙂 Case in point, even though my style has evolved from the presentation in this look, I am digging the this shade of green with the blue — and I like the blue on the waterline. Why didn’t I note what liner I used? Boo @ me. This look is from January 2006, just to give y’all a frame of reference. It’s over three years later, so hey — like I always tell people, practice, practice, practice!

Used: Golden Olive pigment, Lucky Green e/s in inner lid, Swimming e/s in middle of lid, Humid e/s on outer lid, Velvet Moss e/s on outer lid, Deep Truth e/s in crease, Juxt e/s from crease to brow, and Say Yeah! e/s on brow.

wow Christine, this is gorgeous!

I wanna try something similar – that lower lash liner looks like Parrot or something?

Cute! 🙂

This is really beautiful. I think you should have done a full face shot so that everyone could see how the eyes look with the rest of the face. Still really pretty though.

I love this color combo. I think your look 3 yrs ago is just as good as your looks today. But like they say, you are your own worst critic at times. I like that it is different than some of the looks we see you do presently which is nice. Keep the blasts from the past coming.
