Festive Green Eyeshadow

Here is a makeup look I did for my friend's birthday the other night. I really love the combination of green and gold eyeshadow and the holiday season is the perfect time to wear it (even though I always wear it, ha ha). I tried to make it as smokey as I could mixing dark greens and black eyeshadow without having the black show. I really loved this look and I think greens look really great on those with brown eyes or brown hair! 
 Please forgive me for how tired I look in the photographs, I had been awake for over 35 hours because of uni work and deadlines. Also I couldn't put anything on my lips because I am recovering from some stress cold sores. Also I took the pictures AFTER I came home at the end of the night so the makeup was melting a bit under my eyes so just ignore that in the pictures!
Hope you like this look!
