This evening me and the hubs went to the cinema to watch 'The rise of the planet of the apes' which was amazing btw. I whipped out my trusty Mac palette and immediately opted for 'Humid' eyeshadow, a striking green as it's one of my favourite colours.
PRODUCTS USED ON EYES:
All Mac eyeshadows: 'Humid' all over the lid, 'Contrast' in the crease & outer corner, 'Vellum' on inner corners, and 'Brule' to highlight.
Nars smudge proof e/s base + Urban Decay 24/7 pencil in 'Zero' on waterline and smudged onto upper lash line + Max Factor false lash effect fusion mascara.
I LOVE the effect, it cheered me up and made a nice difference to some of the more 'boring' colours I wear. I love the green combined with the navy and the beautiful 'sheen' finish it gives off. I need to wear these colours more often!
OTHER PRODUCTS USED:
- Christian Dior Skin forever nude foundation
- Mac Moisturecover concealer
- Soleil Tan de Chanel
- Mac Rose Quartz MSF
- Estee Lauder 'Crystal Baby lipstick
In case you were wondering how huge I am at 36 weeks.....
All smiles!
Do you wear green eyeshadow often? How do you make it work?

I love the combo of green and navy, very unusual but it works! I'm a huge fan of green too, but find myself falling into the usual brown/taupe rut and have to push myself to be more colourful on the eyes.
You look gorgeous, as always, best looking pregnant person I've seen! Not long now, you must be so excited.

I generally fall into the neutral e/s rut and every time I go for greens I wonder why I don't go for them more often! My favourite green is MAC steamy :) You look so,so pretty I was a puffy mess at 9 months lol :) xxx
You look absolutely stunning babe! You can pull off these stunning bright colours so well and of course you are just glowing!
@Makeup and Macaroons Ur very kind thank u :)
@Natalie Ooow I love steamy too, I haven't worn that in ages!
@Amynicola Thanks sweetie, I miss ur videos!!
I don't wear green much. I tend to wear browns, blues, purples and greys when I do bold eyes because those colors are the ones that either emphasize the light brown in my eyes (purple, blue, brown mixed with copper) or grey (brown, grey, some blues). I haven't tried many greens!
You look so pretty! I love that color on you!
I love green eyeshadows! I usually pair it with browns, golds and taupey shades. =) LOVE!
Aww you are still so little! When I wear green I try to wear a very khaki green, for some reason if it's too green it gives me that sleepy look...I love these colors on you!
I love how the two colours blend! Glad to see you're still updating regurlary even if baby is on the way soon! :) xxx

You look so beautiful! I do agree that sometimes you have to switch up the colors- and that green looks divine on you!

Thanks to you I found Humid and Sumptuous Olive! Words can't describe how much I love Humid, such a vivid yet wearable colour, I love wearing it with Goldmine in the inner corner, Humid all over the lid and Greensmoke in the crease! I even did a look on it :) I NEED to buy contrast now! x
you look amazinggg! i love humid and contrast and don't wear them enough, i need to try and wear them together like you did here, love it x
So gorgeous, as usual. Humid looks fab, I've never fancied it before but can see how it is one of youtr favourites. Also, you shouldn't be allowed to look so blinking fab when you're about to give birth. So unfair ;) xxx

What a gorgeous colour on you!
Gorgeous! Your makeup looks flawless and your baby bump is adorable! I usually wear a darker green with flecks of gold. I'll be breaking that color out soon with the season change.

All of my friends seem to be having babies - and we, too, hope to start our family soon! - but you are the most beautiful, most radiant pregnant woman I've ever seen.
I think that you are such an inspiration and wish you well, sweetie, for the last stage of your pregnancy. :0)
