at the end of the rainbow waited the pot of gold.

How will you celebrate St. Patrick's Day tomorrow? Will you wear green? Will you enjoy a drink and a nice meal with friends? However you choose to recognize the day, here is hoping it will be a positive experience from start to finish. In truth, I have a soft spot for this holiday because my husband and I met on St. Patrick's Day many years back. Each year, there are themed decorations in our home and there is at least some acknowledgement of the day. Tomorrow, I will be wearing a sweatshirt with four leaf clovers all over it and will do something fun and festive with my makeup. In the last week or so, I have painted my nails a bright festive green and have been reading "Irish Parade Murder" by Leslie Meier. I even watched some St. Patrick's Day themed cartoons on YouTube. Life can be stressful and overwhelming, especially with the world the way it is right now, so creating holiday magic has felt more important than usual. On that note, here is a bold makeup look with lots and lots of green.

To create a St. Patrick's Day inspired green makeup look, there were some newer-to-me products used. Essentially, this was all an excuse to use the Fantasy Makers product from Wet n Wild that was purchased late last year. The Chameleon Chrome Lip Foil in the shade Serpent's Spell was featured in a previous blog post (which you can see here) and it is so much fun. The shade looks a little bit different depending on the light, making this an exciting and versatile colour for the lips. This was part of the Halloween line from Wet n Wild and it was added to my cart after the fact at a steep discount. It has definitely made me interested in putting some other shades from the Chameleon Chrome line to the test, but for now, this dark green is a thrill.

Since the dark green lip colour in the shade Serpent's Spell was so bold and dramatic, there were mostly lighter colours used on the eyes. It was the Wicked: For Good Ozian Forest Eyeshadow Palette from r.e.m. beauty and the 9V Vintage Rose Artistry Palette from Morphe that created the eyeshadow look. The lightest matte shade from the Morphe palette, That's Classic, was applied all over the lid as a base. Then the shade, Oh Oz, a light green shimmer from the r.e.m. beauty palette, was applied generously on the eyelid. I love this bright green shimmer so much. There was a bit of the dark green matte shade, Take Flight, added lightly through the crease using a fluffy eyeshadow brush to create a bit of contrast. The lightest shimmer from the Morphe eyeshadow palette, Flourish, was added to the inner corner. On the cheeks was the Everlasting Blush in the shade Foxglove from KVD. It was fun to use some random items in my makeup collection ahead of St. Patrick's Day.
