Just the other day, I showed two Wet n Wild Color Icon Palettes, including one called “Pride,” which has gorgeous matte and shimmer shades of white, green, and blue. The palettes are a great bargain at under $5 each, and I did a look today that received many compliments. The eyeshadow is so beautifully pigmented in these palettes, that I was able to achieve a vivacious, sea-foam green eye that faded into a dark shimmering blue. The colors together reminded me affectionately of a tropical night when the moon is bright and shining on to the water. To see which colors I used, and how I achieved this look,
How To Get This Look:
- Sweep the shimmering white shade into the inner corners of your eyes. You can blend upward and outward slightly, and even apply this shade to your brow bone at the beginning. This is going to lighten and brighten your peepers!
- Sweep the shimmering sea-foam green shade onto your entire eyelid. Focus this color mainly on the middle of your eyelid, and make sure to stop this shade at the crease. This will give your eye a gorgeous shimmering sea green wash of color.
- Blend the shimmering navy blue shade into the crease of your eye, and into the sideways “V” of the outer third of your eyelid. Blend, blend, blend! I love my Sigma E30 brush for this purpose, and I honestly could never leave home without this brush for the rest of my life. The correct crease brush single-handedly allows you to put down, and blend crease color perfectly.
- Using the same crease brush, lightly apply the navy blue eyeshadow to your lower lash line. This helps to give the effect of “eyeliner” without being overly harsh, and ties together our crease color.
- Curl your lashes and apply your favorite mascara. You’re done!
Tropical Moonlight Eyes are sweet and bright, yet smoldering and vixenish! The end result reminds me of a romantic, carefree night under the moonlight in a tropical locale, when the moon is hitting all the bright features of a tropical place – the sand, the water, the tops of the palm tree’s…
Wet n Wild Color Icon Palettes are available in four kits: Vanity, Pride, Lust, and Greed. Lust contains grays, purples, and beiges, whereas Greed contains classic smokey eye shades such as beiges, whites, silvers and blacks. These palettes retail for $4.99 each and can be purchased at Walmart, Target, Ulta, and drugstores nationwide.
