Peculiarities
Although makeup artists consider green to be a universal color, the choice of shade should be based on certain criteria.
- Age... For young girls, lighter and more delicate shades are suitable. Emerald and dark green are the choice of women over 30.
- Skin tone. Cold shades are not suitable for pale-faced girls. Because of them, the complexion can become painful or there is a bruising effect under the eyes. Therefore, they should choose warmer colors. On the contrary, darker, peachy skin will look more advantageous with makeup in deep green shades.

Step-by-step execution instructions
Here is an approximate algorithm for how you can perform light makeup in stages.
- First, a tinting composition is applied. Alternatively, it is permissible to use a cream foundation under the shadow, but after that it will need to be covered with a layer of flesh-colored shadows.
- Now, using brown eyeliner, you need to draw the first contours of the makeup. This is an arrow from the upper eyelid to the temple, from the lower eyelid to the upper crease. These lines should start from the pupil, connect at the corner and go to the top crease at a minimum thickness.
- The drawn lines must be shaded... Moreover, on the lower eyelid, this is done in the direction of the ear, and on the upper eyelid, in the direction of the eyebrow head. The upward line is extinguished towards the temple. The space between the lines is completely filled with color. When done correctly, a translucent haze is formed.
- Green eyeshadow is applied to the central parts of the movable and lower eyelids... When shading them, you need to achieve a smooth transition to brown, observing the shape of the arrows made earlier.
- For the corner and area under the eyebrow a light golden hue is used.
- For a more natural transition to green green mother-of-pearl is applied at the corner of the eye.
- Take a fluffy brush... She needs to add some pearlescent light green eyeshadow on the border between green and brown. If there is too much green here, you can restore the balance by adding brown.
- Now the eyeliner draws a dark brown arrow along the upper eyelid... When the eyeliner dries up, a green arrow is drawn over it. The ideal option is when the colors of the eyeshadow and eyeliner match at the level of the eyeball.
In the end, it remains to shape the eyelashes. First, they need to be painted generously with black ink to make them appear thicker and fluffier. And the ends can be slightly decorated with green ink.
Day
The casual look does not involve the use of bright colors. It is worth giving preference to a combination of calmer tones. Moreover, the large distance between the eyes is compensated by the darkening of the inner corners of the eyes. Otherwise, a darker tone is applied to the outer corner.
Daytime makeup is easy... To do this, you need to cover the upper eyelid with shadows of light or marsh shades and emphasize the eyelashes with black ink. If you want to highlight the eyes more, you can add a little eyeliner, green mascara.
You can shape the eyelid by combining several shades of eyeshadow. For example, a combination of green with gold or light green with peach looks good.
Evening
Here you can use brighter colors from the palette. Options with mother-of-pearl or sequins are also suitable. A good addition to your makeup is an eyeliner with a shiny or matte texture.
When planning to do a bright green makeup, you should pay attention to clothes. A well-chosen bow assumes a completely green, black or white dress. You can use any wardrobe items that have elements in green tones.
Creative
New Year's or other festive makeup is a field for experimentation and imagination, because at such events you should not be afraid to look bold and daring. In this case, it makes sense to try:
- unusual color combinations;
- the use of bright colors with a non-standard texture;
- combinations with rhinestones and other decor that is not used in everyday looks.
Make-ups for the New Year are especially bold. Now it has become possible for parties to make Smokey Eye in green colors, which looks very impressive and mysterious. However, you can give free rein to fantasy on other holidays.
Eye color options
The green color scheme is striking in its variety. Therefore, in it you can find shades that suit any type of appearance.
- For owners of green eyes, a variety of shades are suitable, including marsh, khaki or malachite. At the same time, the use of rich tones of cosmetics is not always appropriate, otherwise the natural beauty of the eyes may fade. Therefore, here preference is given to soft shadows with a matte texture.
For additional emphasis, you can use arrows and undertones.
- Blue and gray eyes go well with gray-green, blue-green, or other transitional shade. In this case, saturated dark green and herbal tones, which give the skin an inflamed effect, will become undesirable.
A harmonious addition to the make-up will be the eyeliner in dark gray or light green, as well as the tone "wet asphalt".
- The depth and saturation of brown eyes can be complemented by bright tones of green. Light green, light green, emerald, jade will look especially good.
Beautiful examples
Finally, consider a few examples of good makeup in this color scheme.
- This option is suitable for a casual look.... For the eyes, combinations of shadows of several shades were chosen. The lips are shaded with a creamy pink color.
- Here, the eyelids are designed in a single tone that sets off the color of the eyes well. However, a dark noble color was chosen for the lips, which does not draw attention to itself, but creates a unique impression of the image.
- This option can be considered an example of how to softly decorate both eyelids in green tones.... The image looks bright and memorable.
This is an option without the unpleasant effects that this color scheme can give.
- This make-up is appropriate for a party. Bright, pearlescent shadows highlight the eyes. A smooth face tone and discreet lipstick serve as a harmonious complement to the image.
Let's summarize: The varied color palette of green can be the basis for makeup ideas for all occasions. In this case, the choice of tone and method of decoration is determined by the colors of the eyes, hair, skin tone and occasion.
When choosing green shadows for an image, you need to consider several weaknesses of this color. It emphasizes all the imperfections of the face, therefore, when using it, you need to take care of the evenness of the skin tone. Lack of shading will result in dark circles under the eyes.
However, if the makeup is done correctly, then it will decorate and highlight the advantages of the appearance of its owner.
