Green eyeliner/green eyeshadow was the hot edgy makeup trend at last night's Grammy Awards 2011. It was glittery green for Nicki Minaj with her scorching hot pink lips. Or it was a colorful green blend for Katy Perry. And Ciara was rocking a green lined undereye.
Okay, maybe Nicki's makeup presentation was a bit over-the-top, but then again, we're talking about Nicki Minaj, and she's never been one to shy away from grabbing the spotlight. So if it were glittery green turquoise, then that's what we got.
Meantime, you can wear green eyeliner and green eye shadow. You can go dark green like Katy Perry. Or you can soften the look with a nude palette like Ciara did last evening along with a teal-colored eyeliner.
When it comes to green makeup, a little goes a long way. And we like how Ciara used a subtle touch of liner and shadow under the eyes.
Soft is the key when it comes to pulling off green eyeshadow and green liner. Allow your eyes to be the focus. By the way, green and brown eyes look delicious together. But makeup pros agree that any eye color and skin tone can wear green quite beautifully, especially if it is in the teal shade.
