Some slytherin green EOTD looks using Kat Von D gypsy palette

I have some pics to share from before my camera croaked, in salutation to Harry Potter I present my slytherin green eyeshadow looks.
These were all done with Kat Von D's amazing gypsy palette. Sadly this is one of the only palettes that is really hard to find now because it was limited edition.

I hope to inspire those that own the gypsy palette to play with the different colors and try new looks.
If you don't have the gypsy palette well I assure you there are dupes of these colors out there.

To dupe the colors in gypsy try MAC carbon, club, trax and bitter eyeshadows as well as true chartreuse pigment. Also try NARS night porter eyeshadow and The body shop 08 emerald eye shimmer shadow to create the same effects seen below.
Sorry I don't have a dupe for the cream eyeshadow, as it was pretty dried up when I got this palette :/

true love palette gypsy:

Here is my most recent dark smokey green EOTD that I wore to see harry potter and the deathly hollows part 2:

Another lighter green EOTD:




And here I used all the colors on the right side of the gypsy palette. I adored this look.




Thank you for looking! And to my fellow Harry Potter fans, what did you think of the movie?

Slytherin' EOTD using MAC she who dares eyeshadow

I was so absolutely excited to go see Harry Potter and the deathly hollows, I couldn't help do my makeup all slytherin' style.

EOTD break down at the bottom :)



What I used for this look:

- MAC paint in bare canvas (base)
- Annabelle smudgeliner oh my goth! to line top lid (black base)
- MAC she who dares eye shadow (green side) all over lid
- MAC club eyeshadow in the crease, blended upwards
- NARS all about eve duo to blend everything
- MAC she who dares all over lid again wet, to add more intensity
- black Hashmi kajal on upper and lower waterline
- Estee Lauder projectionist mascara
- Avon Precision Glimmer Eye Liner (green color) along top and bottom lash lines
- MAC vanilla pigment to highlight brow bone


What did you think of the movie? It wasn't as good as I had hoped. They should have cut all the wandering boring parts. I still can't believe the fight at the beginning was only 2 minutes long and they didn't show anything except Harry and Hagrid.
Poor little Hedwig.

NOTD messy Slytherin' mani

I apologize in advance for the messy pre clean up shots, but I was in a rush and I wanted to take pics before I left to go see Harry Potter 7!

I used Rimmel black satin nail polish as a base, and Sinful Colors happy ending on the tips.

And I had to show off my pretty new ring! (the sparkly one). My other ring kind of got ruined, so my hubby got me this to replace it.

NARS night porter eyeshadow photos & swatches plus smokey green slytherin EOTD



NARS night porter is any slytherin' gal's best friend. Black with green pearly shimmer, it is definitely not for those who don't like to experiment.

I mentioned in my earlier post (here) about MAC she who dares mineralized Eyeshadow (green side) being a night porter dupe. It is quite similar, but night porter is definitely darker and less shimmery.

Here is night porter on the lid:

Here is she who dares on the lid:Night porter dry:

If you read my post about NARS night series Eyeshadow, (here) you already know that the best way to wear them is wet. Just spritz your brush with some Evian facial spray and voila!

Swatched wet:

This is my smoky green slytherin EOTD, it's not the most subtle look, but if you are looking for an idea of what to wear to the new Harry Potter movie coming out next month you might be inspired ; )
can you tell I'm a fan?

Breakdown of eye stuff I used:

-MAC bare study paint pot
-NARS night porter Eyeshadow all over lid (wet)
-MAC true chartreuse pigment in the crease
-The body shop emerald shimmer Eyeshadow on inner corner and brow bone
-Maybelline the falsies mascara
