We select makeup for green eyes by the time of day
Depending on the purpose of makeup, there are two main types: evening and day. Girls with green eyes must take into account this nuance in order to create an image appropriate to the occasion.
Evening makeup is usually much more colorful and bright than day. Everyday is focused on the selection of only the eyes or lips, mainly the focus of the daytime make-up is placed directly on the eyes.
Also different shades of shadows and lipsticks corresponding to the event. However, there are universal options, such as makeup with arrows or Nude Smokey Ice. The only difference is the tone and the number of bright elements in the image.
Evening
Evening makeup for green eyes necessarily includes bright color nuances. Basically, to create such a make-up, it is recommended to use shades that emphasize eye color and with a twinkling effect.
Ideal shadows for evening makeup:
- Emerald;

Another beautiful color combination for the evening Smoky ice: yellow, light green, navy blue. The transition should be made as smooth as possible from the light at the inner corner of the eye to the dark one from the outside.
Perfectly complement the bright smoky makeup blue eyeliner or pencil, applied to the inside of the lower eyelid. The use of false eyelashes with this make-up will be overkill.

And in order not to overload the selected color scheme, you should draw arrows from the same palette, but the shade is darker or lighter.
The lightest version of evening make-up is performed in a relief technique using a shimmer. To do this, it is necessary to cover the entire eyelid with a base, preferably a beige nude shade. Then light brown shades are applied on the mobile eyelid, mainly cream for better coverage.
Shimmer is applied to the movable eyelid, then gently blend it on a fixed, to create a gradient transition. Also, glitter is carefully added to the inner corner of the eye and under the lower eyelid with a thin strip.
Such makeup is recommended to add a bright lipstick: purple, purple, purple, scarlet or fuchsia. And the eyelash is better to paint over black ink.

Step by step application of day makeup
Casual makeup for green eyes can be performed step by step in delicate colors using relief techniques and adding unfinished arrows.
Step 1: Apply with a medium hard brush on the moving eyelid a color base. For this purpose, you can take peach or beige shades, preferably with a pearl shimmer or golden subtone.
Step 2: Using a soft brush, smoothly smooth the shadows on the fixed eyelid and in the outer corner of the eyes so that the shadows resemble a blurry triangle.
Step 3: Use a soft black pencil to draw an arrow from the middle of the eyelash growth line in the upper eyelid. The arrow should not be wide, just fill the space between the eyelashes with color.
Step 4:Use the black liner to repeat the shape of the existing arrow and complement it. From the inner corner of the eye to the middle of the arrow should expand, and its tip to go beyond the century. It is recommended to make the outer tip as thin as possible and bend upwards to “open” the look.
Step 5: Choose an additional shade of shadows. The ideal option would be taupe or dark gray. We apply it with a narrow brush over the arrow, visually reducing it so that a barely noticeable strip remains until the middle of the century. Then we blend closer to the outer corner to get a smooth transition.
Step 6: Finishing in shading gently, so as not to stain makeup with mascara, paint over eyelashes. We try to prevent them from sticking together, otherwise the effect of “natural” makeup will disappear.
In some embodiments, it is allowed to add makeup with a lower arrow, which is drawn and bleached similarly to the top. She can draw the outer corner of the lower eyelid, which will give the look of depth.
Lipstick to everyday makeup with a blurred arrow can be used in nude shades with coral or copper subton. Light gloss with a pink overflow will look beautiful on lips.
