1. Start with a clean eye-space; if you fill-in your brows, you&#8217;re welcome to do them now [or later]. Ignore my stray bits of brow (just plucked!).</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack002.jpg" /><br />
2. Use one of your 239s with a few drops of water-based mixing medium and then pick up Emerald Geren pigment.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack003.jpg" /><br />
3. Apply it all over your lid.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack004.jpg" /><br />
4. Pull it outwards to cover your entire lid area.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack005.jpg" /><br />
5. This is what it should look like.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack006.jpg" /><br />
6. Pick up Goldmine eyeshadow with your other 239.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack007.jpg" /><br />
7. Apply to the very inner portion of your lid, very much near your inner tearduct.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack008.jpg" /><br />
8. Sweep it upwards above the Emerald Green pigment.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack009.jpg" /><br />
9. This is what it looks like.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack010.jpg" /><br />
10. Apply a generous amount of Wondergrass eyeshadow using your 239 brush to the inner alf of the lid.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack011.jpg" /><br />
11. Pull outwards to even out the color.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack012.jpg" /><br />
12. This is what you should have.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack013.jpg" /><br />
13. Apply Humid eyeshadow to the outer half of your lid using the same 239 brush.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack014.jpg" /><br />
14. Pull the brush downwards the blend the color towards your upper lash line.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack015.jpg" /><br />
15. This is what you should have.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack016.jpg" /><br />
16. Apply Humid eyeshadow into the outer crease, starting about halfway on your lid.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack017.jpg" /><br />
17. This is what it looks like now.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack018.jpg" /><br />
18. Pick up more Goldmine eyeshadow and sweep over the inner tearduct and overlap just a touch of the inner lid geren.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack019.jpg" /><br />
19. Pull and sweep upwards to help blend the green and gold together.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack020.jpg" /><br />
20. This is how it looks so far.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack021.jpg" /><br />
21. Pick up additional Goldmine eyeshadow and apply it above the green line, blending the green and gold together to eliminate the harsher green line.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack022.jpg" /><br />
22. Pull your brush outwards to blend the colors together.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack023.jpg" /><br />
23. This is what it looks like now. Technically speaking, you could leave the look as is &#8211; we&#8217;re going to make it darker and add more gold to it overall from here on out, but it can stand alone like this.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack024.jpg" /><br />
24. Using your third 239 brush, pick up Carbon eyeshadow (go light rather than heavy when doing this&#8211;you can always darken, but it&#8217;s tough to lighten!), apply it to the outer third lid.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack025.jpg" /><br />
25. This is what it looks like.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack026.jpg" /><br />
26. Apply it to the outer crease by gently tapping it into the crease.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack027.jpg" /><br />

<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack028.jpg" /><br />

<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack029.jpg" /><br />
29. Apply Nylon eyeshadow to the brow bone to highlight.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack030.jpg" /><br />

<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack031.jpg" /><br />
31. This is what it looks like here.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack032.jpg" /><br />
32. Using your general shadow 239 brush, pick up Golden Lemon pigment and pat it once on the inner third of your lid, then middle third, and then the outer lid.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack033.jpg" /><br />
33. This is what it looks like tapped out.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack034.jpg" /><br />
34. Sweep your brush back and forth to blend out the Golden Lemon pigment, it&#8217;ll turn a very yellow green.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack035.jpg" /><br />
35. This is what it looks like when completely blended.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack036.jpg" /><br />

<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack037.jpg" /><br />
37. This is what it looks like now.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack038.jpg" /><br />
38. Apply additional Humid eyeshadow to the outer half of the lid.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack039.jpg" /><br />
39. This is what it looks like now.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack040.jpg" /><br />
40. Tap your third 239 brush into Carbon eyeshadow and darken the outer crease.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack041.jpg" /><br />

<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack042.jpg" /><br />

<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack049.jpg" /><br />
48. With the 208 brush, dab it into Blacktrack fluidline and apply a thin line across your upper lash line.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.temptalia.com/images/tutorials/tutorial_greenblack050.jpg" /><br />
49. A tapping motion from inner to outer lash line helps to deposit the color easily. Patience is key!</p>
